any medical intervention is considered "playing god" none of us would be alive without medical and scientific intervention.
yesterday one of terri's relitaves was threatened by a guy in a car that said "if terri dies i will shoot you your husband and your children." then down south they arrested a guy who tried to hire someone to kill terri's husband for$250k and $50k to kiil the judge that ordered the feeding tube removed. when going gets tough, christians show their true colors!

I just want to make sure I'm understanding your position and those who agree with you.
You consider giving nutrition through a feeding tube to someone who is breathing on their own "Playing God".
You think a person on artificial life support (such as myself depending on a ventilator to breathe) should be taken off so the situation whether that person lives or dies is in God's hands.
You do not think that creating human embryos and In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is "Playing God"

Terri should live (or not live).
By taking her off artificial life support ... the situation now truly IS in God's hands. If she's meant to stay ... she'll come around and survive to tell about it. If she's meant to go ... God will take her when it's time.
It's an argument by using the Gods of science to keep her living or the God of religion to do as he/she/it sees fit or just plain fate. The latter we've all discussed before with our own injuries.
Terri is being a puppet and the puppet masters are pulling the strings (playing God).
I'm not a God but, if there be one, it's in his hands according to your reply :-)
