On top of this, in regards to the euthanasia issue,I am in the same class as the OP and in the class we watched and discussed your film, A Dangerous Mind, you spoke a lot on the topic of euthanasia particularly in the Neonatal unit about a premature infant and the chance of it possibly not having any utility and it also not being able to make decisions for itself and your stance was the opposite of the physician who was saying do all that is possible to save the child. My question is this, if you were in the shoes of that physician I think we all know what decision would be made just by watching the film but would you choose an active or a passive route and in your mind is there a morally relevant difference between active and passive euthanasia.
