Should humans have the right to kill themselves without the threat of involuntary treatment and/or permanent disability? How one approaches theology and philosophy may influence their answers to this question greatly. At least we shouldn’t be afraid to approach existential questions about life and death. Fatal Freedom, by Thomas Szasz may be valuable for you to read if you are interested in learning more. Read some of the book reviews perhaps of Fatal Freedom, in order to get a better sense of what it is about. We should eliminate involuntary treatment and the insanity defense. Leave law abiding citizens alone and don’t harass them and take away their rights.
