God's law?
Since when does God demand we do all we can to maintain a life when there is no hope of them recovering.
Who says we have to keep a person alive in a terribly disabled state..when half their brain has liquified and they have no chance of becoming a whole person again?
There are no easy answers for these questions.
"Since when does God demand we do all we can to maintain a life when there is no hope of them recovering."
God says ALL life is precious.
Are you an expert on what is and isn't a viable life?
"Who says we have to keep a person alive in a terribly disabled state..when half their brain has liquified and they have no chance of becoming a whole person again?"
We don't know that she would stay in this state forever now do we? Her "husband" has prevented anyone from working with her in any form of rehad that would bring her back to a better state than what she is in right now.
"There are no easy answers for these questions."
Agreed.
Nobody is saying we "have to" keep them alive.
All we're saying is that if somebody is willing to undertake the burden of keeping them alive, the government shouldn't pro-actively prevent them from doing so.
People are being arrested today for trying to bring water to someone who hasn't had a drop to imbibe in 7 days. Is the utter absurdity of that situation not apparant to you?
Your posts in this thread suggest you think you have them.

Please try to be factual. What evidence do you have to support your statement that "half their brain has liquified"? Maybe none of the person's brain has liquified.
Or maybe one tenth.
Also, by your standard, would you classify any and all mentally challenged individuals as having "no chance of becoming a whole person again".
What should society and/or the courts do in these instances - humanely (sarcasm) starve them all to death?
Happy Easter!
