LOL...I'll try that for sure!
You're a person, apparently, who hasn't read anything I've said. I'm one of very few people who was even raising awareness about Eugenics (and by proxy euthanasia) on this site before this Shiavo case came to the fore, but don't let little things like facts get in the way of your hysterical emotional need to feel holier-than-thou with everyone who isn't as hysterical as you.
I also take your post to mean "I don't NEED any proof of my allegations, because EVERYONE knows what a bad guy Michael Shiavo is, and Greer too, so I can make any accusation against him that I want without having to back it up..."
So, take your ideas about me and put 'em where the sun don't shine, baby.
I see you're a 5 pointer.
Epehesians 1 says the God works out everything in conformity to the purpose of His will, not that everything is His will.
I suggest you do some good reading on the sovereignty of God.
Have and will continue to do so. I suggest that you read viewpoints other than your own. Try starting with Andrew Boyd's Satan and the Problem of Evil
God's will is always accomplished
There is a world of difference between God's will always being done ... which I said isn't the case ... and God's will always being accomplished ... which I reference above concerning Ephesians 1.
If God's will is always done, what is sin?
People are entitled to opinions that differ from yours, and should be allowed to express them without name calling.
I actually like your reply better. I think I was trying to be too subtle...
LOL!!! Thanks! My sentiments exactly as I do not believe that Jeb has given up either! I will keep my saying my prayers!
I wouldn't think Michael Medved would do that to you.
Thanks for the email to Jeb. But right now, I am feeling real lousy. What is he waiting for?
I swear, I hope some folks are being successful getting some water to Terri the past days so she may make it if Jeb finally decides to do something.
Hail Mary
Full of grace
The Lord is with thee
Blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary
Mother of God
Pray for us sinners
Now and at the hour of our death.
Dearest Mother of God,
As a mother, please protect Terri from all harm, as you would your child. Another mother is standing by helplessly watching her child tortured and murdered just as you watched your Son be tortured and murdered and had to stand by helplessly. Bring comfort to Terri and her family.
Glory be to God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen
Thanks -- I just got really frustrated reading this thread and some of what I was seeing.
We're fraying around the edges.
Which reminds me of the joke about the string who couldn't get served at a bar because they didn't serve strings.
So one day, he went into the bar with a neat square knot tied at one end.
The bartender gives him the once over. "Aren't you a string?" he says.
"I'm a frayed knot," the string replied.
Frazzled, frayed, freaking out.
Lord be with us.
If someone unplugged a breathing machine, the person most likely would die that same day, but Terri is stuggling to stay alive. Why the torture? I can't believe I am living in the USA and this is happening. I'm very frustrated. Can you tell?
I can't stand to listen to Michael cause he's always getting these people on I can't stand to hear so he can bash them...I hope he's bashing him.
You're right, he is the 6th (666) Circuit Judge. I was reading a document from the beginning of this case. It started out when Greer was a County Probabe Judge. Thanks for clarifying. But does he really have the authority to issue a restraining order that the Governor of the state and the President of the US would be bound by?
If God's will is always done, what is sin?

Seems to me that sin is our God-given choice to act against his Will. It does not affect the Will of God, it only affects our personal destination.
Mother of sorrows,
who watched each breath of her son grow weaker and harder until he gave up the ghost,
pray for Terri,
comfort your namesake Mary Schindler,
and be with all who are dealing with these dreadful end of life situations.
Jesus Christ, Lord, Lamb of God,
have mercy on us.
There is a very difficult question with which we are all going have to come to terms.
The good of the many versus the good of the few.
You are getting frustrated, I am getting pissed and extremely upset and disgusted in the government in general and Jeb Bush in specific. What's he got to lose by doing the right thing? This is pathetic.
Yeah, we all are... ;0)
Do you want him to do what you think is the right thing or what he believes is the right thing? With all due respect, I think you former not the latter.
"You are getting frustrated, I am getting pissed and extremely upset and disgusted in the government in general and Jeb Bush in specific. What's he got to lose by doing the right thing? This is pathetic."
What's he got to lose? His belief in the system of government we have in this country, perhaps? Jeb Bush has been working very hard on this case, and has been for a long time.
That he is unwilling to take illegal action is to his credit, since that would create a serious constitutional crisis in Florida. He is, as we write, working as hard as possible to resolve this matter. He is working within our laws, as he swore to do when he took his oath of office.
It is sickening to hear so many people trashing Jeb Bush and even our President here. They CANNOT go against the laws of our nation and the State of Florida. They swore that they would not.
Perhaps they take their oaths of office seriously. I certainly hope they do.
You may not give a fig about our constitution or the rule of law. Thank goodness our leaders do.
