So you have seen Terri's MRI and PET scan? Let me know when they show up. I suppose in your world, if a patients' observed and assessed behaviors don't match their tests and scans, then they must die.

They have to keep repeating lies to prove their argument, so that must mean the truth supports Terri.

This is fallacious reasoning.

Let me illustrate... Suppose I were to claim that Aldeberan IX has no intelligent life, and the only way I can prove it is to claim that an Orion slave girl told me she was exiled on Aldeberan IX and there was no life.

Well, by your reasoning, there MUST be life on Aldeberan IX, since I could support my position only through lies.

I know that "Proof by Assertion" is the pro-Schindler/anti-"Terri" crowd's favored approach, but I prefer logic and truth.
