I don't ask this out of hostility, but I wonder why Mr. Walls and Cardinal Martino saw fit to make these statements. Did they (specifically) make them when that Dutch doctor published his piece (in, I think the New England Journal of Medicine or JAMA) proposing an infanticide protocol? Did they speak this time because a reporter asked them? I'm surprised that such high Vatican officials would see fit to comment on this, and I wonder if it has anything to do with how they see the influence of the US in world affairs.

How can I, as a part of the legal system, as a believer in the American way of life and a Christian, possibly begin to explain what happened here to my seven year old daughter? That a helpless woman who had done nothing was ordered to be killed by the courts in a hospital and that the doctors didn't save her?

"The Vatican denounced the 'arbitrarily hastened' death of Terri Schiavo on Thursday as violation of principles of Chirstianity and civilization, and a cardinal described her end as a 'death sentence executed through a cruel method.'"

AMEN!
