Clearwater, FL (LifeNews.com) -- A local judge has ruled that the estranged husband of Terri Schiavo cannot starve her to death tomorrow and has set a hearing this week to determine if he should be prevent from doing so while her parents continue their legal battle to save her life.
Michael Schiavo intended to remove Terri's feeding tube on Tuesday afternoon once a Florida appeals court finalizes its decision against Terri's parents Bob and Mary Schindler.
The Schindlers has hoped to convince the court that starving Terri to death would violate her religious liberties. As a Catholic, the Schindlers contend Terri would not want to have her life ended.
The Schindlers are planning to take that fight to the Supreme Court and, while they appeal, they want Michael prevented from ending Terri's life.
On Monday afternoon, Circuit Court Judge George Greer ruled that Michael will have to wait until he can hold a hearing on whether to allow the stay preventing the starvation to continue. Judge Greer set a date for a hearing on Wednesday.
While Terri is not on artificial life support and can breathe on her own, she requires a gastric tube to provide her with food and water. Should that be removed, she will die from a painful 7 to 10-day long starvation death.
George Felos, the euthanasia advocate who is Michael's lead attorney, has instructed him to remove the feeding tube as soon as he is legally authorized.
In addition to their legal fight, the Schindlers have brought in pro-life activist Randall Terry to encourage grassroots support on Terri's behalf.
"If Michael Schiavo has Terri's feeding tube removed, we will respond with an avalanche of activism to save Terri from death by starvation," Terry said Monday afternoon. "Why is Michael determined to starve this woman? Why won't he just give Terri back to her parents?"

Is your life precious to you? Then how can you judge someone else? This sets the precedence like Roe vs Wade set a precedence. That is why the hard fight. Many, many suspicious stuff about Michael Schiavo [Terri's mysterious broken bones -- her neck that seems to have been injured from something like strangulation]. Michael has banned medical tests and wants to cremate the body as soon as Terri is dead.
They are not a phony religion -- they would forgive you for your remarks, but still fight for Terri's life -- as well as stopping more babies being killed than the 40+ million in the US from abortion than already have.
If one can do something to stop people from being murdered, then they should.
Also, these folks have proven they have big political clout. John Kerry is licking his wounds because of this moral majority from the past elections.
IMPORTANT MESSAGE posted on another thread by Ohioan from Florida
The St.Pete/Clearwater contingent has sent word that they want those of us who are not in Pinellas County to hold down the fort, to bump threads, to post threads, and to keep up the pressure on Jeb Bush, House Speaker Bense and Sen Prez Lee, to keep calling and e-mailing and KEEP PRAYING! Everyone working together is vital!
I was trying to bump this thread to you when [in my judgement], the hand of God stopped me on this post...
They are referring to Florida Legislature and Florida Governor. I can give info to you if you want.
God bless
DING! DING! DING! You win the prize! You are EXACTLY CORRECT!!!
The rest of the story is that if Terri IS able to tell what happened, her two-timing-father-of-two-bastard-children-possible-BOTCHED-ATTEMPTED-MURDERER-not-legally-qualified-guardian-husband Michael just might be facing the DEATH PENALTY himself!!!
You know you represent a Pharisee perfectly!! You Judge all the rest of us born again, blood washed Christians yet you don't judge your own Spirit. Of coursee we pray. The ground is prepared in the prayer closet. However, WE are God's hands, feet, mouth etc. on THIS EARTH.!! You come across as having a very bad Spirit. You have NO right to Judge other Christians standing with God and whether we are standing in faith or not. I also grieve for the 40 million murdered babies. But that does NOT make Terri's life any more dispensable. For crying out loud why don't you just pray and stand in faith for Terri and save us the self-righteous sermons.!! We are doing what is in the power of our hands to do.
This Crist is one of the worst politicians in the FL GOP. He should be banished in the next primary for whatever office he seeks.
Here is another powerful story, a urgent plea for Terry.

If Terri's parents were to gain custody, then they would give her the THERAPY that her two-timing-father-of-two-bastard-children-possible-BOTCHED-ATTEMPTED-MURDERER-not-legally-qualified-husband Michael was PAID FOR but DID NOT GIVE HER!!!
If Terri were to relearn how to talk, she could IMPLICATE him in possible MULTIPLE BOTCHED ATTEMPTED MURDERS of her.
Wow. Yipes.
I will pray for her. Rats! i just got back from Florida and I was not too far from Clearwater.
I don't think Gov. Bush nor any of the others would care much what I think since I live in Virginia.
Acc. to the philosophy behind Clint Eastwood's latest movie, Million Dollar Baby, Hawkings is living a sub-par existence and deserves a shotgun blast to the head.

Your initial oxymoronic rebuke is enough to disqualify your entire post however...in order to cement the truth in light of your error.
Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? -1st Corinthians 6:2
For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged him already, as though I were present... - 1st Corinthians 5:3
And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord... - Acts 16:15
And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves. - Exodus 18:26
And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life. - 1st Samuel 7:15
I see that you've laid hold to an effeminate doctrine that demands we not judge one another but this is an adolescent understanding [or lack thereof]. Jesus said in Luke 6 not to judge unless you yourself were willing to be judged. This is confirmed because in the very next sentence He says what measure you judge with will be the measure that you will be judged with. Luke 6 is not a commandment not to judge things, situations, motives, words or deeds. That is a rediculous notion.
I am free to judge any and all situations. And I am not free to condemn. But I am more than able to judge...with the understanding that the standard I use to make judgements will be the same standard used on me. That's cool. My standard is the Word. Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them...And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. -Ephesians 5;6
HOLLA! ;o)
Thanks!

I think one word sums you up:
Sanctimonious ~
(definition) Feigning piety or righteousness: “a solemn, unsmiling, sanctimonious old iceberg that looked like he was waiting for a vacancy in the Trinity” (Mark Twain).
And YOU -
be that solemn, unsmiling, sanctimonious old iceberg (Feigning piety or righteousness) that looked like he was waiting for a vacancy in the Trinity!!
Goodnight Terri prayer!
Prelest works for me. :-)
Haha...
"Do not let arrogance come out of your mouth; For the LORD is a God of knowledge, And with Him actions are weighed." - 1st Samuel 2:3
I think many words only begin to comprehend me: Redeemed, Sanctified, SetApart, Holy, Righteous, Adopted, Crucified, Clean, Chosen out of all people, Healed...
...not "bitter" though. Not Carnal-minded, Haughty, Victim, Lost, Willfully-Ignorant, Rebellious, Wicked etc, etc.
Nevertheless, I do not boast in any of that...
But let him who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows [Jnasko: Ongoing intimate relationship] Me, that I am the Lord who exercises lovingkindness, justice and righteousness on earth; for I delight in these things, declares the LORD. - Jeremiah 9:24
Let him who boasts, boast in the Lord. - 1st Corinthians 1:31
How about you...who do you boast in...
...besides Sam Clemens?
Your theory seems to make more sense than what is going on right now - God Bless.
