This topic should not be brought up in the same area as religion. Religion has absolutely nothing to do with Euthanasia. However, even if religion was brought into this topic, involuntary Euthanasia is not like being "God". If "God" wanted this person dead in the first place, we went against his wishes by keeping the person alive on life support. Committing Euthanasia in this sense is like giving the power back to "God". Now, taking religion out of the equation, Euthanasia is "mercy killing". The person is either being taken off of life support because they are dead anyway without it, or they are in so much pain that they can consent to dying. I think Euthanasia should be totally legal in the right circumstances, because either way you are doing something right. It's not "murder", it's putting someone out of their misery, and if someone asks a medical practitioner to do that for them, they should be able to do that.
