Re: Terri Schiavo
Didn't mean to get argumentative.
I think the error in your statement comes from using the term "religious people" or "people of faith". I don't think not letting go is contained to that group of people. I would say that for those people they believe the only person who can decide the question of life or death would that person explicitly. The Schaivo case no longer has anything do with Terri's wishes. We don't even know her wishes honestly. Both the parents and the husband hate each other and there are legitimate reasons to doubt the sincerity of Mr. Schaivo at the very least. Not to mention that now the political sides have turned this into a take-no-prisoners battleground that is totally disprespectful of Ms. Schaivo.
