Over two years later, the left-biased media still strives to repeat and portray a lie about Terri. Why are they so concerned these many months later? Do they fear their message hasn't stuck, that their lie didn't take? This comes from Kingsley Guy...

Terri Schiavo provides a stark example of image illusion. The Florida woman spent years in a persistent vegetative state, and if it weren't for television and the Internet, the courts with little fuss would have ordered her feeding tube removed.

But someone captured an image of Schiavo moving her head, indicating she was capable of recognizing people. The best experts said she couldn't, but seeing is believing. Right?

Before long, Schiavo was the focus of nationwide media and political attention. National TV stoked the controversy over whether she should be allowed to die by pitting relatives, politicians and "experts" against each other in shouting matches masquerading as debates. Because of the images on TV and the Internet, true believers still contended Schiavo had cognitive ability even after an autopsy proved otherwise.

Opinions aren't equal

You're right, they still struggle mightily to justify the media murder. Why isn't the script working? Why aren't we pathetic, credulous true believers coming around?

They come back here to Terri threads again and again seeking to lord it up by calling us names and citing Law Almighty. But it is they who can't answer the simplest question about the case: what caused Terri's so-called collapse?

We all live under God's law whether we believe in it or not. We are all driven to justify our actions according to that code. We must appeal to all other people by that code because it is the universal law that all humans have in our souls and hearts.

God's code says plainly that it was evil to take away Terri's water and food. It carries a penalty worse than death -- banishment to Hell. And so they return, desperate to make an excuse, like a dog returning to its vomit.

>> That certainly was the case after Gutenberg revolutionized communication in 1450 with his printing press. Within decades, the Renaissance was in full flower and the Reformation was destroying the old religious order.

Absolute bleeping drivel.

One is even tempted to wonder what harm the Gutenberg Bible did to religion. It just meant a few more people had access to God's word. They could read Matthew 23:31-46. And guess what? You can do the same ten times faster today thanks to the Internet "revolution." You have your choice of every translation along with every concordance and aid to Bible students. Here, Mr. Liberal Columnist, as you chortle about taking water and food away from a helpless woman, scroll down to verse 31.

Matthew 25:31-46
