The Terri Schiavo story is certainly one that people could take many sides. However the above is beyond the pale and certainly less than true. Whatever high, moral and for that matter Godly ground you may have had prior to that statement was eroded away when you wrote that. There is none left.

Exactly. There are so many people who want to turn this into a simple story of good vs. evil, and it's not. You can argue as to whether or not Michael Schiavo was right to so relentlessly seek to terminate his wife's life support, but you can't say that he was motivated by greed or hate. I seem to remember reading a report that he'd privately been offered millions by a Texas businessman to simply turn Terri's care over to her parents and walk away, and he refused. Like it or not that's the sign of a person who is convinced that he is doing the right thing, perhaps mistaken, and not at all evil.

Michael was motivated by greed and hate.

It was an opportunity that Michael used to appear sincere, all the while knowing he would get millions upon Terri's death AND the trace of evidence of his foul play (Terri) would be eradicated.
