I really hate to say this about a man of the cloth - but given some of the things that have passed his lips this week, I don't believe a word Fr. Pavone says.

I didn't say Fr. Pavone was the one who made the request for her family to be with her minutes prior to her death. It was, in fact, Brother Paul O'Donnell. You are not disputing that he spoke with the press minutes before Terri's death asking that the family be allowed in the room are you? If so, then you are the one who lacks credibility.
And it seems our credibility is tied to his.
what a shock
His interpretation of events seems.... well, I don't know what to really say about it except to say that it seems that he was stretching the facts, IMO.
Being a Bertrand Russell admirer, I imagine that your skepticism would be aroused the moment you saw his Roman collar, irrespective of what he said.
Fr. Pavone's life work is fighting for those who can't defend themselves- be it the unborn or the sick and suffering who've been deemed human detritus and unfit for this world.
He is about the only credible voice in this case.
Here we go again.
Last night there was a thread making a goofy demand that proof be offered that Pavone was not lying (a logical impossibility.)
