Where and what is Justice?

This Easter, reflect on our understandings of injustice. To use the example of Terry Schaivo:

Here's the part I don't get: why the parents and the husband are fighting so hard.

Consider from the husband's perspective:

Your wife is essentially dead, a corpse kept going by machines. You know or are reasonablly certain that she would not have wished to remain in this state. You need to move on with your life. You've got a girlfriend, whatever money you might have gotten from insurance is long gone, so it's just about what your wife wants. It is perfectly reasonable to talk to the doctors about pulling the plug. This type of thing happens all around America every day.

Or consider from the parents' perspective:

Your daughter lays in a hospital bed, in a coma. A man wants to starve her to death. You're willing to pay every expense to keep her alive, and unwilling to let her go.

Both seem reasonable enough, but both are actually- as far as I can tell -insane.
