That's good.

I want Michael shammed. He is a Catholic and from what I heard it is his girl friend that wants a big wedding in a Catholic church. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

I want BOTH of them shunned.

They're getting away with murder, legally.

The Catholic Church teaches that euthanasia can never be allowed because only God has the power to decide over the life and death of a human being.
Allesandra Rizzo is misstating the Church's position for the purpose of using capital punishment as a wedge issue between Catholics and Evangelicals.

Here are the facts: The Catholic Church teaches that the state does have the power to exercise capital punishment for certain crimes. OTOH, euthanasia is never permitted because the intentional killing of an innocent person is always and everywhere intrinsically unjust.

I know this is a stretch, but couldn't someone working in the hospice feed her under the Florida Good Samaritan Law?

Many posts have said she can swallow liquids.

Anyone know where the OTHER religions are on this? The silence is deafening.

I wish the Vatican would display this amount of energy when it comes to abortion.

"We shall reflect the compassion that is so
much a part of your make-up.
How can we love our country and not love our countrymen?
And loving them reach out a hand when they fall,
heal them when they're sick
and provide opportunity to make them self-sufficient
so they will be equal in fact and not just in theory."

President Ronald Reagan, Inaugural Address

Another great and noble champion of Liberty and Equal Justice.

has anyone noticed? the world is watching. the world has been watching America for a long time. I hope we are up to the responsibility that has been given us with such tremendous influence.

the world is watching Terri. The living dead say "let her join us in death." The living say, "let her live." The battle of the ages comes to Pinellas Park, Florida.

Here are the medical facts on what happens to a person who is "medically" starved to death:
"Removal of the G-tube would likely create various effects from the lack of hydration and nutrition, leading ultimately to death. Brophy's mouth would dry out and become caked or coated with thick material. His lips would become parched and cracked. His tongue would swell, and might crack. His eyes would recede back into their orbits and his cheeks would become hollow. The lining of his nose might crack and cause his nose to bleed. His skin would hang loose on his body and become dry and scaly. His urine would become highly concentrated, leading to burning of the bladder. The lining of his stomach would dry out and he would experience dry heaves and vomiting. His body temperature would become very high. His brain cells would dry out, causing convulsions. His respiratory tract would dry out, and the thick secretions that would result could plug his lungs and cause death. At some point within five days to three weeks his major organs, including his lungs, heart, and brain, would give out and he would die. The judge found that death by dehydration is extremely painful and uncomfortable for a human being. The judge could not rule out the possibility that Paul Brophy could experience pain in such a scenario. Paul Brophy's attending physician described death by dehydration as cruel and violent."
