"NO one has said anything at our church about this except a few of us who huddle together at 'fellowship time' and shake our heads and wonder what we can do about it."
You ask: "What sort of church (denomination) do you attend?"
A conservative church, however, I've worked with ministers in many different churches and as hard as this is to stomach - many are afraid to speak out due to fear of losing pro-abortion members and also, fear of losing tax breaks from the government.
God bless the ministers who speak out in spite of losing members - they are unfortunately the minority in my experience.
I applaud the church minister of the church Greer once attended - for speaking out strongly. He did the right thing and reading his words brought tears to my eyes.
Let's face it: If even half the ministers in this country used their microphones every week to encourage parishioners to get out of their pews and involved - we would not have had 45 million abortions. This country could be transformed if the hearts of Christians turned in repentance towards God and stood up for what is right more often. Bottom line.
KEEP CONTACTING THE PRESIDENT!!! AND GOV. BUSH OF FLA!!!
The president can write an executive order to get Terri into a hospital immediately. It is not breaking any law to do so. The judge can still take time to ruminate over this case. This action would not interfere with the judge. And since Greer already flaunted a Congressional subpoena his ruling is highly questionable.
Executive orders are lawful. They've been written by presidents ever since Washington on a number of different issues.
Contacting the president and ask him to write an executive order immediately. If you cannot reach him, then contact your state senators and representatives.

"I'm not sure we can get it done here in Florida," Martinez quoted (Gov.) Bush as saying just after a new Schiavo measure stalled in the Florida Legislature. "Do whatever you can federally."
This is the Governor of Florida calling for help. Any notion that the Feds have no Constitutional business there is malarky.
This is what happens when you don't expect people to walk the walk...made worse by clergy in some denominations that don't really believe in the miraculous or the resurrection...
