Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 2/3

Which of the following best describes the Christian belief in the 'sanctity of life' in relation to euthanasia?

  1. Life is sacred because it is a gift from God and only God has the right to take it away
  2. Life is sacred but humans have the right to end it if suffering becomes too great
  3. Life is valuable but quality of life is more important than sanctity of life
  4. Life is sacred only if a person is able to contribute to society
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: ALife is sacred because it is a gift from God and only God has the right to take it away
Award 1 mark for recognising that Christians believe life is sacred as a gift from God and only God has authority over it. B is incorrect because it contradicts the Christian teaching that only God has authority over life and death. C confuses secular quality of life arguments with the religious concept of sanctity of life. D is incorrect because Christian teaching holds that all life is sacred regardless of a person's contribution to society.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 2/3

A Christian who supports the use of hospice care for the terminally ill rather than euthanasia is most likely to quote which Bible teaching?

  1. 'Love your neighbour as yourself' (Mark 12:31)
  2. 'Do not kill' (Exodus 20:13)
  3. 'Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends' (John 15:13)
  4. 'For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven' (Ecclesiastes 3:1)
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B'Do not kill' (Exodus 20:13)
Award 1 mark for recognising that 'Do not kill' from the Ten Commandments is the most direct biblical prohibition against taking life, which Christians apply to euthanasia. A, while relevant to showing care, does not directly address the prohibition of taking life. C refers to voluntary sacrifice, not euthanasia. D could be misinterpreted to support euthanasia ('a time to die') rather than oppose it.
