They are spiritual life support as well as physical. Jesus is associated with the Water of Life, and in the Lord's prayer, we ask for our daily bread. The Eucharist is consecrated wine and bread.
The burgeoning Death Cult laws are legalizing the homicide of society's most helpless members, not least by denying them water and sustenance. Your own investigations of the futile care laws reach the same conclusion.
You will not be surprised that the first time Terri Schiavo's feeding tube was pulled, in 2003, Michael ("loving husband") refused even to let her take holy communion. That raised such a stink that he let her have a drop of wine and a speck of bread when he put her to death in 2005. But Judge Greer, without any legal authority whatsoever, forebade anyone from giving her water or food by mouth. He wouldn't even let her have ice chips in her mouth, though that is standard medical practice to ease the patient's agony. Armed men guarded her closely to make sure that nobody gave Terri a drop of water.
Judicial execution by torture.
"You will not be surprised that the first time Terri Schiavo's feeding tube was pulled, in 2003, Michael ("loving husband") refused even to let her take holy communion."
No, I wasn't surprised-Because I was there. And it was the second time her tube was removed. It was first removed in 2001.
Food and water are natural life support. Not artificial life support.
