The word 'dignity' arises continuously in the debate over euthanasia and assisted suicide, both in Europe and in North America. Unlike the phrases 'autonomy' and 'slippery slope', 'dignity' is used by those on both sides of the wuestion. For example, the organization most prominently associated with the campaign that culminated in the recent legalization of euthanasia in Belgium are the Association pour la Droit de Mourir dans la Dignite and Recht op Waardig Sterven. Yet when Belgium passed its euthanasia law, that nation's Catholic bishops declared, "All this is opposed to the fundamental respect for human life that lies at the heart of a society based on human dignity".
