people in comas fall into two categories- people who are brain dead and people who can be revived, IE alive.
once you are brain dead, you are dead. your body just doesn't know it yet. and once they pull the plugs for those machine keeping that person's body functioning they become 'fully' dead.

that was my criteria for life. thats also some of the law's criteria, although issues like these vary state to state.

Life is not defined by "mental capacity", at least not in the scriptures. Life is defined as such, "The life of the flesh is in the blood" -- Lev. 17:11. As long as blood is pumping through the body human and maintaining the flesh, life is still in existence. One might wish to segregate the "quality" of life from life actual. But no one holds the right to extinguish life without righteous due process. Life is paramount in the fact that life is indeed what holds the image of God of which man was made. -- Genesis 9:5-6. Thus, in my opinion pragmatic secular law holds no authority to dictate just when this life process should cease by mandate, without due process of judgment to punish for some crime against society, and inconvenience is not a crime, such as declaring death by the pragmatic act of "euthanasia".

That's where the ID comes in!

Gawd designed it that way so the people would kill each other over skin-color differences...Keeping populations in check.

frist off- I'm not just looking at this from a religious angle.
but god did say humans were made in god's image. the image isn't a physical one, its the our abilty to think, feel, and be able to have a relationship with god. to have free will.
what is life without those things?
can we really say god wants us to be beings with no minds, no control, and no quality of life?
I can't see god giving us those things, those abilities if god doesn't value them and wish us to have them.

I recently read one really thought-provoking concept... we have life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. we may have life- but our liberty and pursuit of happiness can be taken away by our physical condition. we are in an emotional, physical, (and possibly spiritual) incarceration.

and honesly if sick people will go to heaven when they die, why are we so adament with making them suffer in this life longer than they have to?

its not that we come directly from apes. we have a common ancestor.
i think- not sure on this part- that skin color is just a genetic mutation.
