Heavenly Father, we return to give You thanks that Terri's family again will appear before the judge in their petition to have Michael removed from holding sway over their beloved daughter. We look to Your word, Lord ... time and time again, the woman appeared before the judge and asked for relief, but he would not grant her request. She would not be silent but kept returning ... so much like Terri's parents who have petitioned the court numerous times over these many years. Because the woman would not give up, the judge granted relief, to silence her lest she wear him out.

O Father, how we long for this judge to have a change of heart ~ may he have genuine fear that he must act on the merits of the petition and grant relief, lest he continue to be cast in so unfavorable a light. Sustain and encourage the Schindler family, for their request is the obvious protection of their daughter. Do not delay this justice, I pray ... may such heavy conviction weigh upon this judge that he can do nothing but grant relief.

Father, I pray that this proceeding and the ruling would reach the people far and wide .. may it be repeated and printed across the nation, such is the peril that has befallen the less able. Thank You that the presence of the forces of evil are being talked about as fact, and not fiction. Continue to reveal to us the very depths of depravity that has taken hold of men, who now use charm and wit and beguiling tongue to deceive the people. Father, may their tongues become as the most vile instruments, dripping evil in such magnitude that its filth can so openly be seen ... may these words become testimony against them .. let them become their own judges. Banish them from the scene, I pray, dear Lord, lest they continue to infect the people with their poison. Turn back all plans upon them .. they who wish death upon the innocents, may they receive their just punishment.

Creator God, I thank You that You continue to use a small group of ordinary people who stand against all the forces of hell. They do not have wealth or power, yet their cause is noble and just. Give to them the small, smooth stones as You did to David, and may these dedicated people slay the giant who seeks to put to death the most vulnerable, for they go into battle under Your banner, Lord, for the least of these, our brethren.

Guard Terri in every circumstance, I pray, for there are those who will stop at nothing to end her life. Soften the hearts of those who care for her ~ may they know that the eyes of the world are upon this mother's child ~ may they treat her as they would want to be treated ... with love and tenderness.

Thank You, Father, for knitting our hearts as one as we pray and work for Terri's release into the loving arms of her family. You have sustained her these many years, and we praise You. Free her from this prison imposed by one who had pledged to love and care for her, for we ask in the Name of Jesus, Amen ...

It should apply (1) because it's IN the law; (2) because any sane person would conclude that a guardian living in sin is not conducive to the best interests of a disabled spouse ward who would prove very inconvenient to the guardian if she recovers. "Sane" is the operative word. It appears to leave out the trolls and Judge Three-Divorces Greer.

Wow! Powerful! Only a pathetically blind or corrupt judge could not rule favorably.

Unless Michael and Felos can convince a court that Michael's children were not produced by lewd and lacivious means, it would seem difficult for a court to deny the petition. Of course, I wouldn't be too surprised if a judge ruled that reproductive sex was not lewd and lacivious--such a finding would go along with all the other findings of fact in this case.

Oh, come on. It's just another lifestyle choice. < /sarcasm >

Amazingly enough, it is possible for someone to disagree with you, without them being either a troll or insane.

Have a nice day.

Thanks for the nice hello. I've been reading these threads for a long time. I've taken care of a number of patients similar to Terri, in their condition, and I am appalled that someone would try to kill her. I'm also outraged that she's had no therapy, that is an outrage.

There's been no suggestion that Schiavo has been sleeping around or leading a scandalous life.

Most people still consider open adultery to be scandalous. Few here would have any problem with Michael seeking a divorce, but to have children by Jodi without first divorcing Terri is scandalous.

Terri Schiavo case in court again today

There could be some major changes in the Terri Schiavo case today.

Judge George Greer has scheduled a hearing to dismiss a petition from Schiavo's parents. They want to remove Terri Schiavo's husband, Michael Schiavo, as her guardian.

The hearing is scheduled for 2:30 p.m.

This is a different guardian issue than the one ordered by the new "Terri's Law."

Terri Schiavo is the Pinellas woman who has been in what some doctors call a persistent vegetative state since 1990.

We should all pray to not only ask the Lord to soften the heart of that judge but to open his mind to the truth of what has happened here.

Removing the HINO not only saves Terri but mutes the fight over Terri's Law, ends the writing of Felos (felon) book, saves the remaining funds available for Terri's rehab, and allows the Shindler's to sue HINO for all past grievances against Terri and the family.

Should the Schindlers be named as guardian, their attorney should IMMEDIATELY file for divorce on Terri's behalf. Let HINO use his own money for legal services (if he can get someone to represent him) as Felon will be long gone once the money is long gone.

For anyone who is not already aware of it, there is a bill on the table in Florida, being discussed yesterday and today; that would eliminate "lewd and lascivious behavior" as a disqualification for guardianship. Coincidence that it just happens to be on the table TODAY? I, for one, would like to know what brought this to their attention and why they chose today to address it. Will the vote be a done deal BEFORE the guardianship hearing this afternoon?

Florida Senate - 2004 SB 328

Surely this bill on allowing immoral persons to hold guardianship would not pass -- Bush would not sign that.

Sweetliberty - Remember we are talking Florida.

You know, the State with the most LIBERAL Supreme Court in the Country.

You know, the State where the Supreme Court said parents do not have a right to notification of a minor daughter’s intent to have an abortion.

You know, the State with the strictest-liberal Right-To-Privacy Laws in the Country, so every criminal like OJ Simpson, Osama Ben Laden's brother, the majority of 9-11 terrorists, and other fine Christian taxpayers live.

You know, the strictest-liberal Right-To-Privacy Laws in the U.S. that are greatly contributing to sending Terri to her Grave!

You know, My Florida - The "Sunshine" State?

What you have described above is truly the "American dream." But it won't happen in FL with such a CORRUPT JUDICIARY.

Michael could easily have gotten a divorce, married his shackup, and at least legitimatized his children. He has refused to do this.

I have little faith in Florida courts after they took chldren away from their biological mother and handed them to an unrelated female who claimed to be a man.

TROLL ALERT!

Hey y'all! Harv (saveterri1) and his powerful "PAC" is back to enlighten us! Care to share proof of this powerful "PAC" working for Terri yet?

I'm surprised it took you so long to get your keyboard replaced after breaking the last one Harv.
