-
- Society & Culture
Many societies are advancing assisted suicide as a viable option in the arsenal of the healthcare provider. But this breaks from longstanding duties of the physician to not administer poisons as evidenced in the Hippocratic Oath from antiquity. Enoch and Tim discuss the limits of individual autonomy and the morality of assisted suicide in a liberal democratic society.
Warning: In this episode, the topic of suicide is discussed
Credits: Drew Elliot (music) with additional thanks to the Wheaton Center for Faith, Politics & Economics.
