Quote: PaulWellr said: I agree with Rex. I'd think Christians would want to free her soul from that prison of a body. A body that is capable of only the most rudimentary form of "life".
By that argument, Christian doctors shouldn't treat people, in order to get them to heaven faster.
By that argument, Christian firefighters shouldn't pull people out of burning buildings.
Etc.
The thing that bothers me about this case more than anything else is a misunderstanding or misrepresentation of the "right to die" crowd of what is happening here.
This isn't "pulling the plug," like in a bad movie, where the doctor is going to walk up to a bank of beeping machines, flick a switch and then, after 30 seconds of fast beeping, Terri flatlines. This is starving a human being to death.
I wouldn't wish that death, starvation, on the deadliest terrorist or the most unrepentant child killer. But here we are talking about doing it to an innocent woman.
