Thankfully, it's only briefly been touched upon in the past here, but who can say whether it will become a hot topic in the near future.

Markus' topic is not about state-ordered euthanasia, but about yourself voluntarily wanting to end your own life and whetehr state and/or society hsould be allowed to have a say in this your own personal sovereign decision. And when is this decision maybe not as sovereign anymore as it seems to be from a principal point of view - the dilemma I pointed at?
