So if she's GONE what point is there in having people wear diapers to feel what she is feeling, since you say she can't feel anything?

Do you think all humans who are in a state she is in should be starved until they die?

It's a simple, non-loaded question I'd like folks who share your point of view to answer. Thanks.

All who want to be, yes. What is missing in your one-size-fits-all absolutism is that Terri, like me and millions of others, did not want to be maintained by artificial means. The only problem was that Terri, like most young adults, told people (her husband, her brother-in-law and sister-in-law) but didn't have her wishes written down. So, now, people who want to make some political point can make it at her expense.

I would certainly want to be allowed to die in such a terrible circumstance and my durable power of attorney so provides. As Paul said, we of all people should not grieve over physical life "... like the rest who have no hope." (1 Thess 4:13b).
