I felt scared to death to pray, since I've noticed some vocal anti-Christians too!

You are arrogant and presumptuous. Don't assume that all Christians want to punish poor Terri further. There are many evangelical Christians praying tonight that Judge Greer's order is sustained and that Terri can finally be allowed to go Home in peace. Hasn't she served enough time with that hellish life of slurry pumping and diapers for the 'physical life at any cost' crowd? Many of us remember the words of Paul that we, as Christians, should not grieve for loss of physical life "... like the rest who have no hope." Terri is 'stealing away home' tonight.

There's adifference between being "allowed" to go home and being FORCED to go home.

"You are so arrogant and presumptuous...we, as Christians, should not grieve for loss of physical life "... like the rest who have no hope."

But you are wrong, because God commands us not to tempt the Lord our God. We are nowhere told in Scripture to take the lives of the sick. We are told to pray for them. We are told to have the elders pray for them, that they may be well. We are told to persist in prayer. We are told to want God's will. We are told to show mercy.

We are also told that some people's sicknesses are not because of their sins, or their parents, but purposed by God so that He can receive the glory.

You need to repent, because you are actually NOT loving. You have been deceived. You are being disobedient to holy Scripture which He says is inerrant and there for you to teach and inform you. 2 Tim 3:16

Yes Christians have hope, but to call her life "hellish" is contrary to what God calls it. He says we all have battles while here, and hers is worst than most anybody's. He encourages us to keep trusting Him, however. Who are you to argue with His wisdom, His plans?

Thank you for the reminder of the above verse. I'll have to look that one up. Too bad that verses like that have gotten lost in the RCC slurry and even more regrettably, confused with ALL Christians' view. :-)
