'Ten myths about assisted suicide' (Spiked)

A lot of the arguments against euthanasia (assisted suicide) are presented by religious groups including many Christians. Here's an interesting article that offers an analysis of ten myths about assisted suicide that are 'non-religious'. They include such 'myths' as:

• We all need the 'right to die'
• The central issue is pain

and others. The author (Kevin Yuill) finishes the article with a compelling question of alternatives:
