my opinion about euthanasia..!


Well I think that euthanasia is a very difficult desicion by the ill person as much as the relative of that person. For my part I would not like to accept that that is strong for the families of the sick person .. wanted the sick person has already suffered greatly from the disease but we do not decide when we should go from this world but is God. but in many countries have already approved this desicion of what is euthanasia

My opinion is that there must be a respect for the decisions of all individuals and live or die is the right of each, I think when one is suffering severe pain from disease by society says that although they do not cause the discrimination if the slightest hope that it will be relief should be allowed free choice of the parties to end what is called life, that in these situations and it is not, because life is to enjoy the joy of what exists, but it is important by each country to legislate. ..

my point of view about gay marriage..!


my view on this is negative because God created a man and a woman from the beginning you have a theory that man and woman were created to be married together in love and respect each other .. but today the world has changed many women or men want to be born with qualities of women and women will begin to attract as many countries now accept that and allow a man to marry a man ..

Since 2001, ten Have Begun Countries Allowing same-sex Couples to Marry Nationwide: Argentina, Belgium, Canada, Iceland, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, South Africa, and Sweden. Same-Sex Marriage Performed and are Recognized Also in Mexico City and parts of the United States. Some do not Jurisdiction That Perform Recognize Same-Sex Marriages Performed Same-Sex Marriage elsewhere: Israel, the Caribbean Countries of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, parts of the United States, and all states of Mexico.

Should gay marriage be legal?

Same sex marriage

The tide of marriage for same-sex couples has ebbed and flowed over the last decade with no end in sight. Because marriage sits squarely at the intersection of religion, law and society, the discussion around same-sex couples’ inclusion into the institution of marriage has been one of the most complex and hotly contested topics in America.

Euthanasia


The following article refers to the decision of death according to some specific situations. In your opinion: Is that correct that somebody makes the decision to die even if the person is suffering from pain? Do you think that doing this is considered a sin? Are you the type of person who believes that God is the only one who makes the decision to die?



Make a 150 word paragraph giving your own point of view. 

What is Euthanasia?

Euthanasia is the termination of a very sick person's life in order to relieve them of their suffering.
A person who undergoes euthanasia usually has an incurable condition. But there are other instances where some people want their life to be ended.
In many cases, it is carried out at the person's request but there are times when they may be too ill and the decision is made by relatives, medics or, in some instances, the courts.
The term is derived from the Greek word euthanatos which means easy death.
Euthanasia is against the law in the UK where it is illegal to help anyone kill themselves. Voluntary euthanasia or assisted suicide can lead to imprisonment of up to 14 years.
The issue has been at the centre of very heated debates for many years and is surrounded by religious, ethical and practical considerations.

The ethics of euthanasia

Euthanasia raises a number of agonising moral dilemmas:
  • is it ever right to end the life of a terminally ill patient who is undergoing severe pain and suffering?
  • under what circumstances can euthanasia be justifiable, if at all?
  • is there a moral difference between killing someone and letting them die?
At the heart of these arguments are the different ideas that people have about the meaning and value of human existence.
Should human beings have the right to decide on issues of life and death?
There are also a number of arguments based on practical issues.
Some people think that euthanasia shouldn't be allowed, even if it was morally right, because it could be abused and used as a cover for murder.

Killing or letting die

Euthanasia can be carried out either by taking actions, including giving a lethal injection, or by not doing what is necessary to keep a person alive (such as failing to keep their feeding tube going).

'Extraordinary' medical care

It is not euthanasia if a patient dies as a result of refusing extraordinary or burdensome medical treatment.

Euthanasia and pain relief

It's not euthanasia to give a drug in order to reduce pain, even though the drug causes the patient to die sooner. This is because the doctor's intention was to relieve the pain, not to kill the patient. This argument is sometimes known as the Doctrine of Double Effect.

Mercy killing

Very often people call euthanasia 'mercy killing', perhaps thinking of it for someone who is terminally ill and suffering prolonged, unbearable pain.

Why people want euthanasia

Most people think unbearable pain is the main reason people seek euthanasia, but some surveys in the USA and the Netherlands showed that less than a third of requests for euthanasia were because of severe pain.
Terminally ill people can have their quality of life severely damaged by physical conditions such as incontinence, nausea and vomiting, breathlessness, paralysis and difficulty in swallowing.
Psychological factors that cause people to think of euthanasia include depression, fearing loss of control or dignity, feeling a burden, or dislike of being dependent.

I think that the situation in all jails is really worrying for everyone especially for the families of the prisoners because they remain in the uncertainty of whether their relatives are alive and the next day are maybe not.In my opinion I think we should create the body for maximum safety in these places, as we know everywhere there too named # mafia # that allows the entry of weapons,drogs,alcoholic drinks and so a number of things involved in the safety of inmates.

The inmates needs a security,the appropriate authorities should create a plan of action where the prisoners are treated respectfully and to promote living in them more consistent with human dignity and to further the education of inmates and never allow inhuman.

IF YOU HAD MY LOVE

Now if I give you me, this is how it's got to be
First of all I won't take your cheating on me
Tell me who can I trust if I can't trust in you
And I refuse to let you play me for a fool

You said that we could possibly spend eternity
See, that's what you told me, that's what you said
But if you want me you'll have to be fulfilling all my dreams
If you really want me baby

If you had my love and I gave you all my trust would you comfort me
Tell me baby
And if somehow you knew that your love would be untrue would you lie to me
And call me baby

You say you want my love and you got to have it all
But first there are some things you need to know
If you wanna live with all I have to give
I need to feel true love or it's got to end, yeah

I don't want you tryin' to get with me and I end up unhappy
I don't need the hurt and I don't need the pain
So before I do give myself to you I have to know the truth
If I spend my life with you

If you had my love and I gave you all my trust would you comfort me
Tell me baby
And if somehow you knew that your love would be untrue would you lie to me
And call me baby

If you had my love and I gave you all my trust would you comfort me
Tell me baby
And if somehow you knew that your love would be untrue would you lie to me
And call me baby.

DREAMING OF YOU

Late at night when all the world is sleeping.
i stay up and think of you.
and i wish on a star,
that somewhere you are thinking of me too.
*'cause i'm dreaming of you tonight
till tomorrow, i'll be holding you tight
and there's nowhere in the world i'd rather be
than here in my room dreaming about you and me.
Wonder if you ever see me, and i
wonder if you know i'm there
if you looked in my eyes,
would you see what's inside?
would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close
but so far, all i have are dreams of you
so i wait for the day, and the courage to say
how much i love you.
(yes i do)
Repeat *
Corazon, i can't stop dreaming of you,
no puedo dejar de pensar en ti,
i can't stop dreaming,
i cant stop dreamind of you,
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
i stay up and think of you
and i still can't believe
that you came up to me and said i love you
i love you too
Now i'm dreaming with you tonight
till tomorrow and for all of my life
and there's nowhere in the world i'd rather be
than here in my room dreaming with you endlessly
(ad lib to fade)

If I fell - The Beatles

If I fell in love with you
Would you promise to be true
And help me understand
'cause I've been in love before
And I found that love was more
Than just holding hands

If I give my heart to you
I must be sure
From the very start
That you would love me more than her

If I trust in you, oh please
Don't run and hide
If I love you too, oh please
Don't hurt my pride like her
'cause I couldn't stand the pain
And I would be sad if our new love was in vain

So I hope you see that I
Would love to love you
And that she will cry
When she learns we are two
cause I couldn't stand the pain
and I would be sad if our new love was in vain

so I hope you see that I
would love to love you
and that she will cry when she learns we are two.

If I fell in love with you

If you were mine - Marcos Hernandez

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5h5l5ml-3wE

If you were mine,
I´d be your everything and you´d be the only thing that
I would ever need
If you were mine,
I would tell everyone that you are the only one that
I could ever want

Ohhh Yeaaa
Everything I dreamed about
Everything that I talked about
One thing I can´t live without
I wanna get closer to you
Can´t stand being far away
Knowing that you don´t feel the same way
Questioning bring tears to your eyes

[Chorus:]
If you were mine,
I´d be your your everything and you be the only thing that
I would ever need
If you were mine,
I would tell everyone that you are the only one that
I could ever want

Ohhh Yeaaa
All words I sing about
All that is that I write about
Only thing I wanna hear about
So that I can get closer to you
I know that there is someone else,
but he´s only thinking of himself
Doesn´t make any sense for you to be lonely

[Chorus:]
If you were mine,
I´d be your your everything and you be the only thing that
I would ever need
If you were mine,
I would tell everyone that you are the only one that
I could ever want

Ohhh Yeaaa
Let me be the one to share your hopes and dreams with
You´ll never be alone again, cuz´ I will hold you endlessly
Please don´t be afraid to let your brokenheart guide you
Into these open arms that long to surround you, baby!!

[Chorus:]
If you were mine,
I´d be your your everything and you be the only thing that
I would ever need
If you were mine,
I would tell everyone that you are the only one that
I could ever want

So lately, been wondering
who will be ther to take my place
when i'm gone you'll need love to light the shadows on your face
if a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
then between the sand and stone, could you make it on your own
Chorus:
if i could, then i would,
i'll go wherever you will go
way up high or down low, i'll go wherever you will go
And maybe, i'll find out
a way to make it back someday
to watch you, to guide you through the darkest of your days
if a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
then i hope there's someone out there who can bring me back to you
Chorus
Run away with my heart
run away with my hope
run away with my love
I know now, just quite how
my life and love might still go on
in your heart, in your mind, i'll stay with you for all of time
Chorus
If i could turn back time, i'll go wherever you will go
if i could make your mine, i'll go wherever you will go
i'll go wherever you will go

What do you think about the situation in El Rodeo?

The situation in El Rodeo prison has been extremely dangerous lately and people still do not actually know what is exactly happening there. Families from the prisoners do not even know if their relative is alive or not.. 
What do you think is the situation there and what would you do to change this awful situation?
Here I let you with an article I found from the BBC news about this jail.
(Please write a 150 word-paragraph telling your opinion and using the second conditional structure)
Venezuela prison stand-off: El Rodeo inmates moved

Three armoured vehciles are parked near the main entrance of El Rodeo II prison in Guatire, Venezuela, 19 June 2011.Officials say most of the prison is back under their control

The Venezuelan authorities have transferred 2,500 prisoners from a jail near Caracas as they seek to reassert control there.
On Friday, troops took over most of El Rodeo jail in Guatire, after a riot between rival gangs of prisoners a week ago left some 20 people dead.
But a stand-off continues in one prison wing, after attempts to negotiate with a group of armed inmates failed.
The interior minister said some 50 prisoners were refusing to disarm.

In the meantime, the authorities have sought to deal with the prisoners from the part of El Rodeo they already control.
In the early morning of Sunday, they began transferring some 2,500 inmates by bus to a number of other prisons in the country.
They planned to move the remaining 1,000 inmates later in the day.
Officials say the measure is temporary, designed to protect the fundamental rights of the prisoners.
'Short circuit' fire
Many of the inmates' relatives, however, remain highly anxious about a situation that is still very volatile.
Two members of the security forces and at least one prisoner were killed in clashes inside the jail when the security operation started on Friday.
Hundreds of relatives have gathered outside the jail, where they have clashed with security forces in recent days.
Some of them watched with great alarm as a fire broke out in part of the prison before dawn on Sunday.
The Venezuelan authorities denied that they had started the fire deliberately.
A senior government official, Nestor Reverol, said the blaze - which has since been put out - had been caused by an electrical short circuit and that no-one had been hurt.
Waiting game
Attempts to end the stand-off inside part of El Rodeo have so far failed.

Start Quote

We'll last out for as long as it takes”
Tareck El AissimiVenezuelan interior minister
On Saturday, Interior Minister Tareck el-Aissimi said the leaders of a group of inmates - whom he called "hostile" and "negative" - had been using their weapons to exert control over more than 1,000 fellow inmates in that area of the jail.
Mr Aissami told the state television channel, VTV, that the leaders were demanding that government troops - who number some 4,000 - pull out of the jail.
And he said the men would not permit a search of the part of the prison they controlled.
The authorities have been trying to implement a crackdown on guns within the jail, and have so far confiscated a number of firearms and a quantity of drugs.
But Mr Aissami said he was prepared to play a waiting game.
"We'll last out for as long as it takes," he said.
"Time is not on their side. We're on our guard, waiting for them to hand over their weapons."

Incubus - I miss you






To see you when I wake up
Is a gift I didn't think could be real.
To know that you feel the same as I do
Is a three-fold, Utopian dream.

You do something to me that I can't explain.
So would I be out of line if I said "I miss you"?

I see your picture.
I smell your skin on
The empty pillow next to mine.
You have only been gone ten days,
But already I'm wasting away.
I know I'll see you again
Whether far or soon.
But I need you to know that I care,
And I miss you.

If I Were Brittania - I'd Waive The Rules by Budgie


Some people try to tell me that life is a joy
Others think I'm crazy when I say it's a toy
Only the lonely understand that it's true
Only Britannia has the right to waive the rules

Any man can realize that love is not a sin
All you do is shake it up and then you let it in
Any man can realize that life is just a toy
Take a chance and waive the rules
And make your time a joy

I met a woman the other day,
She told me that it was egg on my face
It was a certain disgrace, I can't take it no more
I'm just insisting I do understand,
I'll never be a part of the band
They start to teach you at school
If I were Britannia, I'd waive the rules

Temptation's on your mind,
It's gonna make your body high
Although you know it was only pride, but I paid

You'll earn your ticket out of rock and roll
But some are pulling you home
I take it that you don't know,
It's just a part of the show
They couldn't make me see why,
There ain't no blue in the sky
That's like they teach you at school

Temptation's on your mind,
It's gonna make your body high
Although you know it 's pride

If I were Britannia, I'd waive the rules
