The author, Robert N. Wennberg, agrees with euthanasia. There are three factors which indicate his position is for euthanasia: Amount of evidence, the author’s comments on the evidence, and argument structure. Firstly, from the amount of evidence, it can be said that Wennberg is for the position. In the text, he uses seventeen people who are for euthanasia out of 26 people. Especially, in the section of “Posing the Problems”, there are eight people who are for euthanasia out of nine people. He aims to make his opinion more strong and cogent by using more people who are in the side of the author than against. Secondly, the author’s comments on evidence represent that he thinks euthanasia should be allowed.
