Euthanasia means the active act of killing.so if someone is on there death bed and are suffering a lot and they say they want to die and u take off whatever that's keeping them alive that's euthanasia. So it's an opinion and so yes some people do believe in it. I personally am not up for it.
Opinions on euthanasia vary among individuals and cultures. Some people believe in the right to choose how and when they end their lives, while others consider euthanasia morally or ethically wrong. Religious and ethical beliefs often influence attitudes towards euthanasia.
Apparently because they believe in it.
When nothing else works and someone wants to end their life with dignity, when there are no more painkillers that work and they are looking at a slow painful agonising death...it is definitely helpful. One has to remember that it only takes place with the patients approval. And dealing with death is also a part of a doctors job.
some do, some do not.
aproxamitly 40,000
In the UK, euthanasia is illegal. However, some terminally ill patients may seek assistance in dying through lawful means such as assisted suicide. The number of people seeking this option each year is relatively low and specific figures are not readily available.
The number of euthanasia operations performed each year varies by country and is influenced by legal, cultural, and ethical factors. In countries where euthanasia is legal, such as the Netherlands and Belgium, several thousand cases are reported annually. However, it is important to note that the actual number may differ due to underreporting or variations in reporting practices.
Euthanasia can be studied from both micro and macro-sociological perspectives. Micro-sociology would focus on individual interactions and decision-making around euthanasia, while macro-sociology would examine broader societal norms, laws, and cultural beliefs related to euthanasia.
People who believe in Judaism are called Jews.

Christians are strongly against euthanasia. They believe that only God can take away one's life. For Hindus, they believe that euthanasia will damage the karma of both doctor and patient.
Euthanasia can affect patients who may consider it as an option to end their suffering, as well as their families who may have to make difficult decisions about end-of-life care. Healthcare providers involved in administering or considering euthanasia may also be impacted emotionally, morally, and legally. Additionally, society at large may be affected by debates surrounding ethical, legal, and moral implications of euthanasia.
There are no Euthanasia Centers for people at this time.
A parent might believe in euthanasia if they see it for them selves or see that somebody they know or is very close to tries to commit suicide :)
All of them
I don't believe their can be a "head" of euthanasia, but Dr. Kevorkian is a well known supporter of the currently illegal process.
If you believe in the Bible, I suppose you could say that God created euthanasia. He (allegedly) facilitated the deaths of people suffering from an "incurable condition" - corruption and wickedness. If you don't believe in the Bible, you could still say that the fable of the Ark brought about the idea of a sort of euthanasia, which could have easily developed into the meaning it has today. This is just a theory, of course.
Perhaps a follower of the Hebrew religion will weigh in on this question, BUT I do not believe that Jews believe in the practice of euthanasia, therefore it is doubtful that Israel would legally allow it.
