"Professing to be wise, they became fools."

By the way, what's the harm in allowing Fla. Children's and Family Services to do a full and fair investigation into what happened to Terri -- before starving her to death?

Investigation into what? The fact-finding is done. We will never know more of Terri's condition than we do now. Her brain is gone -- G-O-N-E, replaced by spinal fluid. All doctors -- husband's, parents' and the court's all agree on that. Absent a direct miracle of God creating a new brain for her, nothing can change.

Now, the parents' doctors, while conceding that her brain is gone, contend that there may be enough cells left in her brain stem to generate some trainable skills. But the courts have uniformly found that such testimony is incredible and totally lacking in scientific support.
