You recall, I am sure, the argumentation that in fact the blind judge delivered nothing but an abortion of law, given the absence of proof that Terri wished to be euthanised.

But I would grant you that as a practical matter the law has spoken, and an innocent disabled woman was killed in full accordance with the law, and in full perversion of the moral law. Which is my point today, that the Church should simply disregard anything produced by the secular courts, given the legal climate such as manifest in the Schiavo case.

"that in fact the blind judge delivered nothing"

Oh, I know for a fact that he's not blind -- I watched the video as his eyes followed the balloon around the courtroom.

You have something against blind people? They're not good enough? They can't do the job? Please point out where Judge Greer was unable to do his duty as the judge in this case due to his eyesight. One example will do.

"given the absence of proof that Terri wished to be euthanised."

Hmmmmm. I read where the judge had "clear and convincing" evidence as to Terri's wishes, the Florida standard. Maybe you're confusing this with another case.
