For her to have "asked" for it -- for it to be done on her "wishes" -- would have been such a sin, in Catholic theology.

That argument gives it a little more credence, but probably not enough. Whether true or not, the reports state that she didn't attend Mass regularly so there is reasonable doubt as to how devout she might have been.

But I don't think we even need to explore that. If withholding the tube is not a choice she can make or has made, which is what the Schindlers are arguing, then a decision by others to withdraw can't be a sin on her part.

It's just a crummy argument.
