Since when is the only criteria for not being killed that a person will be restored to health?

You have been very blessed in your life if you have not had to care for a loved one that is crippled, a quad, retarded, an Altzheimer's, MS, cerebral palsy, polio, mentally insane patient. All of these could fall under the criteria some on this thread espouse.

Yet, who appoints others to judge whether these people get to live or not. The healthy are no better than the weak. How do I insure I am of the "elite" judgers instead of the victimized judgees.

I do not relish living in your version of the world.

You are setting yourself up for a big eye opener one day. You may have to eat a lot of those words when a loved one or child of yours with those sweet little eyes looks at you and can do little else. Talk then of it not being worthy of life.

It comes down to this -- we have only the right to say we do not want our life extended with artificial means when there is never any hope. Not some other person - just us for our own lives. To do other than that is murder.

Bump your post.

I offered my opinion on how this would probably turn out, not my "version of the world."

I'm not sure why I deserve your rebuke, but I hope you feel better for doing that.
