Death Is Beautiful? Possibly the creepiest moment in the Terri Schiavo saga came Saturday afternoon, when George Felos, Michael Schiavo's lawyer, appeared at a press conference without his client. Felos described having visited Mrs. Schiavo, who at that point had gone eight days without food and water. "Frankly when I saw her . . . she looked beautiful," Felos told the assembled reporters...That's just weird.
It turns out that Felos's weirdness goes deeper still. In a 2003 article, Florida Baptist Witness editor James Smith looked at Felos's 2002 book, "Litigation as Spiritual Practice." Felos's views on the "right to die" are informed by a "syncretistic" spirituality that "mixes diverse religious traditions--including generous citations from the Bible and references to Jesus Christ--creating a composite of his own spiritual worldview."
Smith quotes at length a story from Felos's book about Estelle Browning, the subject of Felos's first right-to-die case:

He had never seen Terri looking so perfectly beautiful as on her death bed, starving and dehydrating to death. What a despicable ghoul.
This guy is just nuts!
I wonder if power hunger does this to a person.
I find hearing or reading the words of this man far more terrifying than any horror movie. He is definitely a ghoul and there is no doubt that he actually sees himself as as some sort of angel of death.
Someone should lock him up and throw the key into a volcano.
He must really fixate on those WWII death camp photos then. (Another black mark against this assclown is that for some reason he reminds me of alan dershowitz in looks and actions.)
Yeah, I heard this discussed on Glenn Beck today. And folks call me a "whack-job" because I read and believe the Bible.
So, as long as I am going to be called a "whack-job" and "thumper" anyway. I may as well state that either this guy is:
(1)Making this up.
(2)Nuttier than a Christmas fruitcake.
(3)Communing with demons!
This is one sick puppy. Glenn Beck, tongue in cheek, suggested Felos was actually channeling Hilter! It was funny, but this is scary at the same time.
actually Felos reminds me of Chevy Chase. No rhyme or reason.
I don't know if his euthanasia crusade made him nuts, or if his being nuts led to the euthanasia crusade. Another thing we'll never know.
sould speaking.
Felos believes he can speak to the souls of the near dead.?

Felos is full of crap. I should know.

(insert theme from Twilight Zone here)
After having endured his press conference and reading this passage from his book I am firmly convinced that a great injustice is being perpetrated here and this guy is a serious menace. He is creepy and crazy!
Yesterday when he invoked the "holy Day" of Easter I thaught he was going to be struck by lightening,right there.
Wow! he sure has chosen his side and his judgement day is going to come.
The guy is also channeling money into his bank account and his investment portfolios where it will also "talk" to him. Given the size of his ego, nothing that he says or thinks of surprises me. He's kind of a George Soros to the dying, a creep but a smart creep which makes him even scarier.
They didn't say anything because they don't want to be considered crazy by delving into the issue. Believe me, I know. I lost 3 friends tonight because of my opinion of Felos.
FELOS LOOKING BEAUTIFUL AFTER BEING BLESSED WITH HOLY WATER
Felos is the new age equivalent of a serial killer. He is positively orgasmic over the death of another.
Not really funny, but your post made me chuckle. I did the same...I said it had to be a unanimous vote by all my family members :)
Not that it will do much good, but I sent email to O'Reilly tonight. I told him he was wrong when he said no one won - that the author of the book, "Litigation as Spiritual Practice," George Felos won. I challenged him to read the book and then tell me I'm wrong.
Easter actually falls on some pagan holiday, the birth of Ishtar (?) or something to do with her. That's why it is tied to a particular full moon, not a set day every year.
Undoutedly this is a holy day for him, but not in the same sense that it is Holy to us.
here girls, come carry some water for your guy
It's tied to Jewish Passover
He won't bother, after all the bloviating MR.O is always right. No one in this process has sought to look at Felos or Greer critically.
Felos is creepier than Zarqawi.
I have not read his work, but I would imagine that the darkness in man is more horrifying than any mythological horror we could imagine.
Our legal system (from the highest court down to Michael Schiavo's attorney)has been hijacked by extreme liberals, communists, aethists, appeasers, environ wackos, secularists, abortionists, and God-hating lawyers. Just like the Islamo-fascists have taken over and become the face of Islam. God help us. God bless America.
I could have sworn I saw a clip of George Felos on a program called "God in Government," arguing against Christianity in the public sphere. After reading this link below, I am quite sure it was him.

Ping.

PART II
FELOS LOOKING BEAUTIFUL AFTER BEING BLESSED BY HOLY WATER
I thought Kevorkian was a creepy looking guy. He is so weird I think most people wouldn't fall for him. Felos is creepy but so smooth about it. By saying she looked beautiful on her deathbed he is furthering the myth that her death is peaceful and wonderful. He is such a sick man. I think the devil's in charge of that one.
Yes it is, but it is also tied to some pagan high holy day to do with their goddess Ishtar, which some believe is where the name Easter came from.
"He must really fixate on those WWII death camp photos"
Yeah, they are like porn to him. Beautiful, a real turn on.
Scum bucket, why do they have to pump her full of morphine if this is such a nice way to die?
How about TOBAS....Take Out Back and Shoot!
No. Far too quick and painless.
Heard that the reporter on Fox (don't remember name) immediately said he was nauseous. Same thing I had said.
Aren't we all. I was chastised earlier by a poster - that I really turned him off with my ??? something and something about embarrassing, representing my faith......
I was going to reply - "Of course I turn you off - anyone that agrees with MS would be extremely turned off by me."
But, not worth it. He did not like my posting so I decided not to make him read another one to him.
Not as smart as he thinks he is. This case is now known worldwide. Why? Because of the uproar over what is going on here by those of us so upset.
Sure they think we will calm down. Did you hear him thrilled beyond belief that his message was getting out and that the media was helping him?
I can just see him strutting in there to visit Terri as he is doing all in his power to make sure she dies so he can have the precedent of hearsay entered into court records.
Who will be his next test case?
Smith quotes at length a story from Felos's book about Estelle Browning, the subject of Felos's first right-to-die case:
As I continued to stay beside Mrs. Browning at her nursing home bed, I felt my mind relax and my weight sink into the ground. I began to feel light-headed as I became more reposed. Although feeling like I could drift into sleep, I also experienced a sense of heightened awareness.
As Mrs. Browning lay motionless before my gaze, I suddenly heard a loud, deep moan and scream and wondered if the nursing home personnel heard it and would respond to the unfortunate resident. In the next moment, as this cry of pain and torment continued, I realized it was Mrs. Browning.
I felt the mid-section of my body open and noticed a strange quality to the light in the room. I sensed her soul in agony. As she screamed I heard her say, in confusion, "Why am I still here . . . Why am I here?" My soul touched hers and in some way I communicated that she was still locked in her body. I promised I would do everything in my power to gain the release her soul cried for. With that the screaming immediately stopped. I felt like I was back in my head again, the room resumed its normal appearance, and Mrs. Browning, as she had throughout this experience, lay silent.
Good grief...
