You were the one appointing me God.

No. As usual, you miss the point.

The point is, you, by making quality of life decisions for other people, and judging who and who is not worthy of living according to your standards, are taking on yourself the perogatives of God.

A dangerous slippery slope for any man or for any society.

Get it?

I "get" the point that you are setting up false statements and trying to apply them to me.

I also "get" that there are thousands of cases such as this and they are often terminated after the best medical advice and practice declares them hopeless as was done in this case. At no point am I involved in such decisions since I am not a medical authority.

I also "get" that this case consumed millions in medical and judicial resources for NOTHING. Terri was beyond hope as all competent medical authorities found and had been for over a decade.

I also "get" the fact that the fanaticism aroused by the Schindlers cares nothing about the truth and distorts information as you have to try and make people believe their actions are correct.

This was no slippery slope and is nothing unusual since hundreds are in the same situation as TS. And I have NOTHING to do with them being there nor with their ultimate demise. The question here was never who was "worthy" of living but totally who was CAPABLE of living without medical intervention. TS was not and so she died after millions were expended on the pretense that something other than death was possible.

While that was sad it was not the end of the world nor anything any more significant than the thousands of other deaths which occurred that day some of which could have been avoided using the massive expenditures wasted on TS because of the Schindlers selfishness. But since those deaths were politically useless they are ignored.
