nope. you totally missed the point like he did. you saw people praying and bought the media insinuation about an "evangelical circus."

Probably never occured to you that the people who were there were their because they treasure the sanctity of life just as our founders did, and weren't afraid to be thought of as fools to show it.

Were some goofballs? Sure. So freaking what?

Incidentally, few people would call Catholics "evangeliwhackos." Yet they were the dominant and most vocal presence in vigil at the Hospice (and in the marketplace of ideas as well). Doubt that? Go watch my video.

I live here.(St. Pete.)

I saw the circus.

It was pathetic.

I guess it was media insinuation too when the locals complained about the protestors that didn't respect their private property by parking all over it and locked up nearby businesses from providing a livelihood for their employees too huh? Not to mention the dozens of other families that couldn't get in to see their loved ones because people who had no business being there just had to be heard

And it probably never occured to you that the same Framers were very specific on the definition of federalism. Please see Federalist #45, 78, and 81 on which courts the Constitution covers and just how far the rights of the specific states go. The Framers may not have been afraid to be fools for what they believed in, but they also respected the rule of law.

I dislike the term 'evangeliwhackos', so let's just use the term whacko shall we? I mean I'm a Christian and I wouldn't be up in someone's personal business to the point of protesting like a certified loon. Anyone that ties themselves to a case so stringently that has nothing to do with them or their families, up to the point to post as some idiots have that they are still crying over a decision from a month ago, I consider a whacko. Anyone that stands out in front of a hospice blocking traffic, businesses from operating their normal schedules, families from seeing their loved ones, over a non-political personal issue that has nothing to do with them in the first place, I consider a whacko. And anyone that praises Randall Terry, as some have here, I definitely consider a whacko.

If Michael Schiavo, Judge Greer, or anyone else has done something that they should be judged for, they will be by a court not of this world. However, if they have accepted Christ, they will recieve the same grace as anyone else who has. If God can forgive them, why shouldn't others? I guess it's easier to call for them to be hung or tarred and feathered though...But I don't see they did anything wrong either. It was a tough decision but one that was made correctly
