When their life devolves into daily misery, if I cared about them, yes I would.

Its not healthy for the living to do this. I’m not saying ‘forget’, don’t misunderstand.

I’m saying given the emotional toll, they should avoid being ‘leaders’ in this.

Kevorkian had nothing to do with their situation. Nothing at all. H was in prison, remember?

Kevorkian had EVERYTHING to do with their situation. To say he didn’t would be like saying that Hitler had nothing to do with Auschwitz because he wasn’t there.

The Schiavo’s are trying to gain public recognition for the rights of the disabled, this is no different from MADD or those who pushed Megan’s Law. The “leaders” of movements like this have nearly always been those who lost someone through tragic circumstances.

You perceive some "daily misery". That is simply not the case. I don't know if you are in a particular religion or not but faith takes many people a long way. Many people returned to the church and renewed their faith after seeing the Schindler's example of faith.

The founding fathers granted us freedom of religion. Don't knock it, with all due respect... FV
