Religious law

INTRODUCTION Through a thorough look into the case, it is clear that there are unresolved issues and legal loopholes in regard to legislation and acts in regard to discrimination in its broad nature.

However, the legalization of Euthanasia will not affect the generalized public, it will only affect the terminally ill patients who want relief from the pain they have been burdened with. While there are religious oppositions to the legalization, the people must come together as one and acknowledge the fact that not everyone is of the same or even any religion.
