Sorry, I missed the post, there are so many of them.

Do you think that if God deemed that it was Terri's time to die, that there would be any thing man could do that would keep her alive?

It's a very controversial gift from God called human agency or free will. People go against God's purposes all the time. It comes to naught or has very uncomfortable consequences, but they still do it.

In other words, do you think man could ultimately trump God's will to take Terri home with Him?

No ultimately of course, but ultimately can be a long, long time. And then, naturally, one one lives forever.

Thank you! That's what I thought, too!

So, if Terri hasn't died yet, it could be for the two reasons I mentioned before. That either Terri has a strong will to live or God isn't ready for her life to be over.

Now, keeping that in mind, it is my opinion that if "man" tries to take Terri's life before God wills it, it's murder, no matter what "man's" law may say about it!
