There are so many non-religious views on euthanasia. In some cases it would be agape (the most loving thing) but obviously you have people who think nature should be allowed to take it's own course and should not be interfered with. It really depends on opinion and situation.
Christianity views euthanasia as a sin. God has given you the gift of life and it would be wrong for you to reject that gift by killing yourself. Even if you are suffering, that too is part of God's mysterious plan. Right?
The Englightenment brought independant thought and the philosophy of sovereignty.
Anglican views on euthanasia are generally cautious and emphasize the sanctity of life. The Church of England, for example, opposes euthanasia, advocating for palliative care and the dignity of the dying process instead. Anglicans believe that life is a gift from God, and taking deliberate action to end it can undermine the moral and ethical responsibilities of care. However, individual Anglicans may hold a range of personal opinions on the issue, reflecting the complexity of the topic within modern society.

Egoism, a moral philosophy that prioritizes individual self-interest, can have varying views on euthanasia depending on the context of the individual involved. Proponents might argue that if euthanasia aligns with a person's desire to end suffering or maintain autonomy over their life choices, it could be seen as ethically permissible. Conversely, egoists could also oppose euthanasia if it contradicts their self-interest or the interests of loved ones. Ultimately, the perspective on euthanasia within egoism hinges on the specific circumstances and motivations of the individuals involved.
While practically no-one in current society would tolerate involuntary euthanasia, 'mercy killings' and 'assisted suicides', where the person killed consents to his or her fate, are the topic of heated international debate. An important difference in UK law exists between active euthanasia and passive euthanasia. Since the Bland ruling of 1993, 'assisted suicides', which involve 'omissions' that are mainly removing life-saving care are not illegal. However, actively taking action to end another's life is illegal, even with consent.
