Selected claim, supporting its parent
Death is a private matter.
Pros
Cons
Pro claim 1
Death is a personal and private time in which the state should not have any involvement.
Con claim 1
A person's death can impact other parties beyond themselves (loved ones, healthcare professionals, the state, etc.), so it should not be considered a private matter.
Con claim 2
Many religions believe that one's life belongs to God, and thus it is not a private matter.
