The God of Scripture is sovereign over all. If Terri dies in the next week, it is God's hidden will. Since that hasn't happened yet, we don't know His hidden will. We only know his preceptive will.

There is also God's command to those that fear him, which applies strikingly in this case:

Prov. 24:11 If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain;

24:12 If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?

Namecalling merely illustrates your propensity for bomb-throwing on these threads devoid of proof. Blindly appealing to "the courts", while ignoring the blatant problems in this case illustrates your own blindness to the facts. FR is chock-full of resources that can enlighten you, but I suspect no amount of evidence would convince you - not even a video showing Terri is not a vegetable.

Finally, saying this is not an execution is tantamount to saying Michael is Terri's husband. To a fact-twister, a letter-of-the-law type, that's true. But for anyone with eyes, a brain, and a modicum of common sense, Terri is being executed and Michael is married to Jodi and has two children.

We all need to make a stand here, for one day there may be people wanting to starve us to death, and deny us even water. God help us all. I do not want this evil action to be a precedent set for the rest of us! God forbid!

There are only 30 protestors? On the first full day her feeding tube was pulled.

Sadly if this goes forward none of the henchmen involved in this will swing from any gallows.

You are not alone. I haven't even eaten since the tube was removed (I have drank water and coffee though).

They remind me of little yapping, howling coyotes gathering around a sick deer. It almost seems like, in their cruelty, they will have a party to celebrate Terri's passing. I hope that's a wrong perception.

Taquito the troll is gone to re-join his pro-death cultists at DU.

This fool is really getting over the top here. Thumbing his nose at people who are sincerely upset. Not adding anything substantive, just sneering and trying to upset people. No place for that here. But that's your decision.

Thank you.

Disagreement is one thing, but this was a bomb-thrower.

"Disagreement is one thing, but this was a bomb-thrower."

Sure was. I'm sure he's happy back home now at DU, where he belongs.
