Intentionally witholding AIR is different how, exactly?
Where are you guys going with all of this? That we need to
keep our dead and dying alive no matter what? To what end?
Improve their quality of life? If there is a reasonable
chance that we can do that, I agree, but it's got to
be in touch with mainstream medical opinion and science.
The one's clamouring for maximal artificial extension tend to
be the religious nutters and imbeciles who believe that braaaying
like a hyena to their gaaaaaaawd is gonna result in some "miracle".
Otherwise it's just about families wanting to keep their
people around because either they have a fear of death, or so
that they can feel better about themselves.
Another trait of the religious fundies, they're self-serving cocksuckers.
What I dislike is these spurious moral analogies or "plays" that get
put on for the public by the church, politicians and media (as well
as other barking lunatics who jump on the bandwagon) and appear
to always be pitched at the most ignorant among us..
Bingo! Ignorance is the Demographic of Religion, always has been,
always will be.
