"With that reasoning, God must want the victims of murder to die (because if God did not want them dead, they would not be)."

Not quite the same thing. With a murder (as Mikey Schiavo is attempting), there is an outright act of an individual to take the life of another. God does allow that, although He doesn't cause it. But when one is making an effort to maintain life, e.g. feeding yourself or another, God can end that life regardless of man's best efforts, if He so chooses. In other words, if God wanted Terri dead, she'd be dead.

"But whatever, the evidence is that Terri is already dead in mind"

Dead in mind means no brain activity. Terri has brain activity, friend, so you are wrong.

Unplug her, if God wants her to live, she will. I think alot of people are afraid of this simple test of faith(or about being wrong about what they say God wants for Terri Schiavo).
( pssst....you have an out tho...you can always say that god took her home if she dies)

Anyway, many people seem to be afraid that Terri Schiavo will be starved to death, but forget the fact that starving herself got her here in the first place. So how is it okay if she starves herself into a CVS and not okay if she is starved out of one?(I personally think a overdose of morphine would be much more humane, but I don't write the law these days....and good thing too)

Equating this with murder is all a matter of personal opinion, there will not be any murder charges when all is said and done.....plenty of murder accusations and shrieking....but no charges.
