Scottish church leaders are opposing proposed assisted suicide legislation, citing moral concerns and the sanctity of life. They have urged MSPs to reject the Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults bill, expressing worries about crossing moral boundaries and devaluing human life. The bill, introduced by Liam McArthur, would grant terminally ill adults the right to end their lives under certain conditions. Church leaders argue that legalising assisted suicide could undermine the inherent value of all lives and lead to an ethical decline in society. They advocate prioritising palliative and hospice care to uphold dignity and compassion for those facing terminal illnesses. Despite growing public support, including a survey showing majority approval, they are emphasising the importance of maintaining equal value for every individual's life.
