Again you misread your own sentence you missed the part where it says most.  Rectangle vs Square.  People in a vegetative state DO react to stimuli. Meaning that this is not the criteria used to decide whether or not it's ethical to pull the plug.

 

Also you totally misread and misunderstood the study... I'm guessing you didn't actually read it and just tried to skim it to find something you thought supported your point.


Study summary. (Obsolete)

I'm not sure if you're joking at this point, you can't possibly have a memory this short.

I wasn't the person purporting the initial position about responses to stimuli; you were. But since apparently you need to be reminded every other response of your previous positions, I'll do so (again). Damn this is really getting old.

Hell people in a persistant vegetative states actually do react to stimuli.

They cough, sneeze, move their arms and legs.  React to touch, sounds, heat.

 Outside that.  You have a faulty belief about what a Persistant Vegatative State is.   Like I mentioned earlier in this thread.  People in a Persistant Vegetative State do react to stimuli.  Hold their hand and they will grip it.  Put heat on them, and they will turn away.  They're sensory brainwaves are still working.

You do reaize what you posted specifically says that people in a PVS do react to stimuli.  The sentece you quoted specifically states that. 

It was only after your continuous pernicious nonsense that I addressed it. You were pawning off this position as if it was the norm. I simply rebutted it using facts. And now you're attempting to use subterfuge to spin this fable? Haha, I don't think so bud.

It was after the first 2 of your posts that I responded:

"Most PVS patients are unresponsive to external stimuli and their conditions are associated with different levels of consciousness."

In other words, totally destroying your horse shit.

I won't be indulging you any further. You have rendered yourself completely dishonest and duplicitous.
