So you are okay with taking the life of both a neonate and someone [brain-dead] on a respirator?

It depends on the circumstances but generally...yes.

Would you say it is okay to take the life of the person on the respirator if that individual has indicated they don't WANT their life taken in that circumstance?

Ditto...but in the real world this question is most often resolved by finances, not morality.

Perhaps you don't know that the term 'neonate' refers to the stage from birth to about 1 month old. Unless. . .are you saying it is okay to kill a baby after they are born?

Ditto

So you are okay with shutting off the respirator even if the person in question has indicated they don't want that to occur.

Sheesh. Disgusting.
