I think what Michael Schiavo did was incorrect and horrible! Starving and dehydrating a brain damaged person is murder. If she had been brain dead I WOuld have thought differently but she was not, she was in fact brain damaged! There are many brain damaged people living on this earth and we don't go around dehydrating them to death, that is murder! There is also a medical fact that the brain can heal itself but Michael Schiavo never allowed Terri the opportunity to get better as he just wanted her to die. He is scum!

I think what Mel Gibson said is horrible and I now have changed my opinion of him. At one time I considered him my hero, but no more. You can't be a Christian and hate someone, Jesus teaches us to love one another and be forgiving of one another. I forgive Mel for what he said and I'm sorry he has that hate in his heart. I will pray that he sees truly what Christ is about.

I agree with you totally!

I have always said that you cannot really view yourself as a true Christian if you hate! It goes against everything that you are taught as a Christian. Granted, it is hard not to hate people sometimes, especially if they hurt you, but we must still do our best not to.

Her collapse was in 1990...she died in 2005. According to my calculator that's 15 years...her brain did not heal an iota in 15 years. For the first eight years Michael did EVERYTHING humanly possible to try to find a cure for her to get better. EVERYTHING. Even travelling across the country for experimental therapies. NOTHING HELPED. So, when he finally accepted there was no hope for Terri, he did was so many testified was her wish. So saying he just wanted her to die is so outrageous, it borders on slander. Now, don't hijack threads in the future, especially when you don't know what you're talking about.
