One of the premises in an argument against euthanasia is :
Answer: B
A premise against euthanasia is that deliberate killing of innocent persons is always wrong.
The standard argument runs: it is always wrong to deliberately kill an innocent person; euthanasia is the deliberate killing of an innocent person; therefore euthanasia is always wrong. The qualification 'innocent' is essential.
'Killing is always wrong' and 'deliberate killing is always wrong' are too broad, since they would forbid killing in self-defence, which most opponents of euthanasia accept. 'Deliberate killing is not always wrong' would support euthanasia rather than oppose it.
