Look, for the umpteenth time....Catholics get the RULES...they are VERY PLAIN....they are TAUGHT.....the rules aren't up for discussion nor is there any ambiguities....hence no need for ADVISORS....Confessors yes.....advisos means there is wriggle room since serious Catholics KNOW the rules.

Michael was in the process of suing for millions to get money to care for Terri for her natural lifespan of 45-50 years...his testimony.....but as soon as the money came thru, he remembered that she said she wouldn't want to live and he started trying to kill her with a court order. He was NOT a loving husband for very long and he didn't take "for better or worse" ver seriously.

Is your name Jody...soon to be Schiavo?

.advisers means there is wriggle room since serious Catholics KNOW the rules.

Adviser does not mean wiggle room, a Priest's advice could very well be to follow the rules if you want to be a SERIOUS Catholic.

Since you're a SERIOUS Catholic and know all the rules I'm sure you could preform an exorcism with out any advice on the proper "chants" to recite.

I think you are so wound up in this issue that you want things to be a certain way so badly that you're blinded to the fact that reality may be different.

Look how the Judge in this case is equated to Hitler, and is subjected to death threats. For what? Being called on to settle a dispute, and acknowledging the bitter truth that some poor woman's brain has ceased to function, parts have been replaced with fluids, and no one has ever recovered from this situation?

Read the time line and the facts presented in this case, it might very well give you a reason to pause and reconsider what is going on.

Just for kicks, knowing you already know all the rules, ask your Priest if he has ever given anyone spiritual advice, if he says no, you win!
