Tbh if someone wants to refuse treatment because they are old and had a long life, or because they just want to "get it over with", I have less of a problem with people refusing treatment.

I just find the idea of refusing treatment "because God" horrible. So your God wants you to suffer? That's not a God you need to be following.
"Adulthood is like looking both ways before you cross the road, and then getting hit by an airplane"  - sarcasm_only

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
