"I hope that your statement was made from lack of knowledge about the case"
You hope for to much. I have been following this case carefully because of a similar situation that occurred a few years ago in my family. I have been forced to form a strong opinion by real events - not just an intellectual exercise.
I am sorry to say that I suspect that Terri's family is no longer rational about Terri. They have been taken over by obsession. They have made the Husband and the Judge the villains and attribute motives and powers to them that do not exist (even though the husband appeared to be sort of a slime ball in his interview on Larry King.)
Terri needs to be treated with dignity - not as some circus sideshow to prove/disprove pro-life theories. If she truly is vegetative and her brain has been destroyed, as the courts have concluded, then I do not disagree with removing life support.
I pray every night that Terri be treated with dignity and be allowed to die with dignity.

>>I pray every night that Terri be treated with dignity and be allowed to die with dignity.
If you have been following this case as carefully as you say, you know Terri is not dying.
Her husband wants to put her down, by starvation.
Try these phrases for enhanced perspective---and accuracy:
"I pray every night that Terri will be put down."
"I pray that Terri will be treated with dignity and starved to death."

They have been taken over by obsession. Seems to me the husband has been taken over by his obsession to get rid of his wife in a merciless killing. The Schindlers love their daughter and are only and not to have her starved to death.
It would seem the husband's of his own.
And many of us here are obsessed that Terri not be treated worse than any animal. You can't starve animals to death in this country, but you can starve people. Some people even get feeding tubes for their pets, but I'll wager that a lot of these same people would want to yank Terri's feeding tube because she is a waste of time and money and is a worthless piece of human garbage because she can't contribute anything to society like lap dancing.
I can't believe the callousness of the "you must die" crowd.
