Nice try but I'm not backing away from my previous statement one bit.
Even if the medical community consensus is that a PVS patient can't suffer, I believe this is in a limited context.
Yes, maybe a PVS patient won't feel or respond to normal pain stimuli, but they remained trapped in that body.
I believe a person has a soul and is in there, aware on levels we know nothing about, and yes COULD and probably DOES suffer in some manner.
Amazing. So in other words, forget the actual scientific basis for the entire case, you supported ending her life partially because your personal metaphysical theories told you that she "COULD and probably DOES suffer", based on zero evidence or accepted scientific fact whatsoever.
Remind me again which side contains the religious zealots?
If you actually believe what you are saying here, then in fact you are not taking the legal basis for killing Terri Schiavo seriously. You have invented your own basis for killing a person and it is based entirely on pie in the sky metaphysics.
Again, it's fine and dandy for you to believe these things personally, but when the ramifications are the death of an innocent person, one would hope you would examine the beliefs more seriously and apply them in a more sober way. When you make it plain that you are ok with killing people because of some unprovable metaphysical stuff you "believe", don't be surprised when others get alarmed and disturbed and call you on it. They are right to do so.
