Before Terri and Michael Schiavo married, they had to get a Special dispensation from the Church because Michael was not Catholic. This means he had to agree to never prevent her from worhship, practicing her faith or from receiving the sacraments.

Seems like he reneged on his pledge.

That he did. I will not even pretend to be the best Christian out there (or even a very good one, at that), but I do know that the kind of man who would stand between a disabled woman and her God is the kind of man I despise. Michael should at least respect her religious beliefs and honor her wishes.

Instead he has apparently chosen to kill her against her will, and the courts (esp. that little thug Judge Greer) have decided to give him that authority. My head aches just thinking about the crud I used to believe about this being a "free" country, where people could choose their own path in life for themselves without the interference of an all-knowing big government.
