But I flatly stated over and over again that I am not. Her parents and her doctors have decided, and as a matter of fact I disagree. But that doesn't give me the right to make decisions for her family.
You, however, seem almost enthusiatic about being the ultimate arbiter when it comes to other people's decisions.
For someone who disagrees, you are certainly striving mightily to argue that letting her die is for the best anyway and - even more contradictorily - that those who disagree should be legally forced to violate their own consciences.

I understand that you are willfully creating straw men and deliberately ignoring my very obvious point.
But for those entering the thread here, I'll explain again.
The issue is whether the parents of this child have the right to dtermine the decisions of other people - specifically whether tehse parents have the right to force other people to watch a human being die without helping that dying person.
Again, the parents have every legal right to stand idly by and watch their child die.
They have no right to tell other people to do the same.
They do not have power over my conscience or anyone else's.
I sort of see his point. He’s not trying to make decisions for the family, but to draw a line for himself, that he will not participate in the death of another human being.
