No problem / offense intended by me,

and no problem / offense taken by me

That was just a private email that got posted here by mistake - had too many windows / sites open at once on my PC

As a matter of fact, I had no intention of participating in this thread. Someone pinged me to it, I looked at it, thought that I switched to somewhere else, but hadn't.

- peace and good luck to ya -

Thanks for the story about the Shindlers view.........I'm so glad to see their voice is being heard also.

27. In the Encyclical on Christian Education[10] We explained the fundamental doctrine concerning man as it may be gathered from reason and Faith. Man has a spiritual and immortal soul. He is a person, marvelously endowed by his Creator with gifts of body and mind. He is a true "microcosm," as the ancients said, a world in miniature, with a value far surpassing that of the vast inanimate cosmos. God alone is his last end, in this life and the next. By sanctifying grace he is raised to the dignity of a son of God, and incorporated into the Kingdom of God in the Mystical Body of Christ. In consequence he has been endowed by God with many and varied prerogatives: the right to life, to bodily integrity, to the necessary means of existence; the right to tend toward his ultimate goal in the path marked out for him by God; the right of association and the right to possess and use property.

**It is frequently asserted in press accounts that Terri had a "heart attack." This too is false. There was no heart attack, and again, doctors have testified to that effect. A heart attack causes the release of certain enzymes into the bloodstream. These enzymes are readily discovered in tests and are used as the "markers" of a heart attack. No such enzymes were found in Terri's bloodstream, nor any other evidence of a heart attack. Terri's heart was and is quite healthy: there was no heart attack.**

This takes care of the heart attack assertion -- next what about the strangulation possibility? And weren't there skull fractures?

This is a catholic thread,

And a protestant thread, and a pro life atheist thread, and an all-manner-of-folk-who-are-shocked-at-what-Michael-is-trying-to-do-to-Terri thread.

And a protestant thread, and a pro life atheist thread, and an all-manner-of-folk-who-are-shocked-at-what-Michael-is-trying-to-do-to-Terri thread.

I know. It was started by a catholic in the religious forum; didn't mean to sow confusion or dissent over it. I tried to make some points from a catholic perspective is all I meant.
