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.

Where did I say I supported ending her life?

I said that I probably could not have removed her feeding tube, but didn't know how I would feel after seeing her in this state for 15 years.

AND I do understand the right to personal end of life decisions such as this, and am not willing to judge the husband.

Remind me again which side contains the religious zealots?

All I said is that I believe God created people as living SOULS and that they continue to exist as such, EVEN as a PVS patient.

You call that being a "zealot"?

Except you also said that, you imagine, such a person "suffers". Which is what started our latest little back and forth, of which I grow extremely weary.
