Most stunning throughout this lengthy, three-year battle to save Terri Schiavo's life has been the lack of consistent action by Florida's Catholic bishops, especially Bishop Robert Lynch of St. Petersburg. It is inexcusable that these shepherds find it acceptable to sit by virtually silent while one of their flock is being brutally and publicly murdered.

Catholic Bishops in America will be getting a BIG piece of my mind soon (and not only about Terri). When my blood pressure is at normal levels, I can barely stand the Catholic leadership. But today...well, God forgive me for my thoughts about them.

I pray that the Catholic laity wakes up big time and takes back the leadership of their church!

My God, what is it going to take??? <><

Yeah, the Pope was conspicuously absent in this. He has not hesitated, in the past, to plea for the lives of the condemned in this country.

The only thing that will get the church's attention is the withholding of tithes.
