Superior Essays
humans, no need to worry about predators or any driving force that could cause death. Communications would not be created as faster as there are no threats or strong need to communicate. Weapons would have no purpose as war and crimes would be unnecessary as one cannot take the life of another if there is no way to take a life. The Younger generation would suffer the most. The younger generations will have to fight an uphill battle because the older generations have the upper hand of knowledge. Knowledge would be key and the elder would control all the power. When humans have matured, the population with the highest education will remain in power. There is no limit to how long the older generation will rule, until they fell they must retire …show more content…
Death causes things to change in the sense that nothing can truly be destroyed, but rather changed into a new form. This goes with culture, society, and even living creatures. When a human is believed to be dead, people assume that the person is no longer part of this world, but this is not the case. The person’s death is the marking of a new change. The person is more part of the world then when they were alive, there is no distinction between who was better. Their death will allow for younger people to have space to flourish, without depleting the earth’s limited resources. Their body will decompose and become a part of earth and allow for other creatures to use the body’s nutrients to grow. The creatures will become a food source for the younger generations of the deceased. A person’s death does not mean they ceased to have ever existed, as they are remembered by their actions and live in the embodiment of others memories.

    If doctors are enabled the decision to terminate a life on behalf of a unconscious patient, they would be then granted a power over society that not only breaches the Hippocratic Oath, but also empowers them to “play God”. This responsibility could then reflect upon society, altering their views and their trust within doctors and medical professionals as they could then be seen as “providers of death” (Cosic, 2003. 25) In addition to this, a doctor’s decision to terminate a life may not rely on the condition and best interests of the patient, but instead of amount of hospital beds and facilities that are…

Like for the gun control, there’s shootings and that isn't because guns are safe it's because the people using the guns the wrong way.
