| Message | Simple. There are some cases in which the soul has passed on but the body remains here. This is called being comatose or brain dead. They are both as bad as death. |

| Message | We fail to see how "playing God" and deciding when these people should die can be seen as anything other than murder or, worse still, an attempt to substitute God Himself. |

| Message | Playing God? God already killed those people. We're just burying the body. |
