Subject: RE: BS: Obit--Terri Schiavo--rest in peace
Saul and Art make good points, and backup my resistance to letting the two outspoken antisocial members attempt to shield their misbehavior behind a religious cloak. The behavior and the cloak are ill-matched, and in fact, unrelated.

A priest on a morning news program today kept wildly accusing those who let Terri die of being "murderers." Then he would say "we don't want to make them enemies, we want to talk with them, but we must call them what the are, 'murderers.'" This is as good an example of giving with the right hand and taking with the left as I've ever seen. He has no intention whatsoever of talking with those he would accuse. He has his agenda in mind and is grandstanding as long as the news programs will let him.

A lot of thoughtful people are directing their prayers and/or good wishes toward the Schiavos. Those are sufficient to release Terri's spirit and comfort those who were carrying out her wishes, much to the chagrin of the rest.
