Having said that, I also believe it to be wrong to try and extend life where there is no reasonable chance to save it.

By reasonable, I mean when all treatments are no longer holding death and disease at bay.

NOBODY is suggesting that extraordinary means of life support be used for extensive periods of time (though it must be pointed out that food and water are NEVER considered "extraordinary" as they are required by everyone). The problem is when methods are used that are designed to end life.

I do not mean to deny bodily needs, right to the point of death. I’m talking about treatments that cost the user or tax payers, millions of dollars, just for a few months of life.

People need to remember that God created death. It serves a purpose within His creation. To try and stop the inevitable, at some point, is denying the very will of God.

"(though it must be pointed out that food and water are NEVER considered "extraordinary" as they are required by everyone)."

Unfortunately, I have seen that happen within recent years. They stop the food and water (me and my bff still talk about it to this day and consider it murder).

To deprive ANY living soul basic food and water, even if through drips, is killing them on purpose.

As my name states...."NoGrayZone". There is no gray area for me regarding the above.
