sounds like a Felos argument....change the focus to "resolving disputes between groups with different moral values."
Felos took it from the basic 'right to life' to 'right to die'
I hope that your statement was made from lack of knowledge about the case.....there are laws being broken here notwithstanding the moral issues which are equally if not more important to some than the legal incongruencies.
And remember, noone makes you read a Terri thread 8^)

"I hope that your statement was made from lack of knowledge about the case"
You hope for to much. I have been following this case carefully because of a similar situation that occurred a few years ago in my family. I have been forced to form a strong opinion by real events - not just an intellectual exercise.
I am sorry to say that I suspect that Terri's family is no longer rational about Terri. They have been taken over by obsession. They have made the Husband and the Judge the villains and attribute motives and powers to them that do not exist (even though the husband appeared to be sort of a slime ball in his interview on Larry King.)
Terri needs to be treated with dignity - not as some circus sideshow to prove/disprove pro-life theories. If she truly is vegetative and her brain has been destroyed, as the courts have concluded, then I do not disagree with removing life support.
I pray every night that Terri be treated with dignity and be allowed to die with dignity.
