Agree

No, but they should be allowed to refuse artificial life support

While Neo-Confucianism places a high value on life and the duties associated with it, the allowance to refuse artificial life support could be seen as a compromise between the duty to preserve life and the recognition of natural limits to human existence. This stance acknowledges the importance of natural processes and the limitations of extending life artificially, which could be seen as aligning with Neo-Confucian values of harmony with the natural order.

Agree

No, but they should be allowed to refuse artificial life support

While Neo-Confucianism would generally be against the idea of ending one's life, it might be more accepting of the idea of refusing artificial life support. This could be seen as a natural acceptance of one's fate, rather than an active attempt to end one's life.

Disagree

Yes, but only after a psychological examination to show they fully understand this choice

This answer introduces a measure of caution and consideration (psychological examination) before proceeding with assisted suicide, which might be seen as partially aligning with Neo-Confucian emphasis on thoughtful action and moral deliberation. However, the fundamental allowance for assisted suicide still conflicts with the ideology's core values of life preservation and enduring hardship, leading to a disagreement, though slightly mitigated by the requirement for thorough understanding and consideration.

Disagree

Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive their illness

Although this answer allows for assisted suicide in certain conditions, the conditional nature of the allowance does not fully align with Neo-Confucian values, which generally emphasize the preservation of life and the fulfillment of societal and familial duties. The ideology's focus on enduring hardship for the sake of virtue and moral development would likely lead to a disagreement with this stance, albeit less strongly than a blanket endorsement of assisted suicide.
