"The euthanasia groupies love to say this is TRAGIC"
I noticed that! They ALL use that phrase in their posts.
Did you also notice the large number of (I'm not allowed to say "trolls" anymore) who are repeating over and over some nonsense about Terri being "a prisoner in her body" and not being allowed "to go to heaven"?
They're all saying exactly the same thing, it's almost rehearsed.
It really struck me today.
I believe this is the heresy of gnosticism, where the belief is that the body is merely a "shell" for the soul, and that this physical life is really an unreality of sorts, the true life is only when our soul is in heaven.

I hadn't thought of that, Deo Volente; you're Right!
I'm Seriously beginning to think also that One Reason that so many people want our Terri Gone is just Plain Bigotry. She isn't "just exactly like them; she's Different," and they want her Gone because of it. :(

I noticed it. I noticed something else they say over and over. They say Terri's being kept alive against God's will. As if that were possible to do, which it isn't. That idea goes back to the oldest heresy, and the very first lie - the idea that man is equal in power to God, and can play tug of war with his will. Or, that man's power is greater than God's, and man can override God's will. A lie that worked on Eve. Satan and followers of evil have been trying to get everyone to fall for that lie for a long, long time. But it hasn't worked, and it will not work now.
