  Abstract:  Euthanasia as Intention. Christian theology has always accepted death as a natural phenomenon. The Christian leaves in peace, understanding that this is part of life, that death represents a moment and not a final stage. But now everything has changed. Patients are permanently dying in hospital and the complexity of doctor’s duty is more increased. To help someone to die is not easy, not only because the death is more and more spoofed and disposed of truth, but because instead of being lived as an extraordinary event, however painful it would be for our human condition, it is considered as an insufficiency for the moment of the science. Many times, someone’s death and suffering are hard to handle for ourselves and the wish to reduce this suffering takes sometimes an unclear aspect so we ask ourselves sometimes, who we want to release quicker from suffering, ourselves or the moribund.

Keywords: Orthodoxy, Medicine, Euthanasia
