Tonight, I chose to end the life of my sick and suffering goldfish. This was a very hard decision for me to make, but I believe that I did the most humane thing for him.

Folks, do you have any opinions on this topic?

We had to do the same with our cat in mid-December.

That's a responsibility we accept when we take care of a domestic animal. They rely on us for the basics.

I love my cat and miss him but I know we did the right thing. He had way more bad days than good towards the end and he didn't deserve it. I know we'll get him back if we should.

Why is this topic called "Youth in Asia"?

Thank you. That's a really nice way to think about it.

What about human beings? How do you feel about making the choice to end someone's life when that person can't communicate their wishes to you?

Say the following words aloud: youth in asia; euthanasia.

I'm going to try very hard to ignore how irritating this question is, and just tell you that my fish's name was Gordy.

That sucks. But the thing is, you have to think about what the fish would have wanted. I would think it would be kinda selfish to have the fish get sicker and sicker and have the owner kinda deny all that just to be with the fish. It's a tough decision to make with any life-form, but you have to know that you're both better off.

I think euthanasia is a necessary thing to do when needed. If my gran (god forbid) got amnesia I would take her lifebecause i know that's what she would have wanted. Am I wrong?

EUTHANASIA IS WRONG! - LEVETICUS

I however am neutral on this topic. But lord does like to control who dies and when they die. He is power mad and bossy and a pansy! So gay!.

Sorry I recently lost a bet with Lucifer so as a result I have to insult the lord Almighty. He's actually not even a he or a she for that matter he's the unimaginable which your human brains are limited to see. His greatest creation was the 7th day, day of rest. He's a very benevolent force.

You know I actually didn't think you were Imkevosk. You write differently and your writing conent also differs ( but maybe that's because you're not trying to be an "angel") However you constantly accusing me of being Imkevosk is making me contemplate the fact that it might actually be you. That that maybe Billy101 and Imbilly101 are both right.

Imkevosk is obviously a different person. I do not think it is gash, however. It might be someone younger.
