"A brain-dead human is alive and human, yet we pull the plug and kill them"
Rat certainly did, on a number of occasions.

"A fetus is a potential person,"
How totally Jewish

They are, as you said, "brain-dead".

You are actually referring to "Persistent vegetative state"

They will never regain functional cognitive function (at least with today's technology). The brain, with all its state information, is the one organ you cannot lose.

A unborn human person is not in the Persistent vegetative state.

Brain death is the complete loss of brain function (including involuntary activity necessary to sustain life)
