Well, the verdict is in. The husband was not the evil monster her family and the media tried to portray him as.

I was pretty sure of that all along. He was trying to do right by her.

I thought the same. Glad to have the confirmation.

I'm just glad to know Terry Schiavo can finally play the golden PSP to defeat the armies of Hell.

Sounds like her parents are still refusing to accept the truth... they are just the kind & queen of denial. So sad.

One of the many reasons that Jarod is my friend: South Park references.

Terri Shiavo: a hopelessly boring woman to whom nothing mattered more than eatting.

I've been there, I know what that guy was feeling.

My family is Catholic, though I am not.

The one thing that alwasy struck me as strange was the Catholic Church's apparent position on this case.

The Pope himself said that though euthanasia was against God, continuing a life beyond it's natural state was not. Feeding tubes, respirators and such are not a neccessary way to go.

I have to look this up now, so I can prove it.

Here we go:

Catholic Church's Declaration on Euthanasia

And here's some relevant parts:

"But for such a decision to be made, account will have to be taken of the reasonable wishes of the patient and the patient's family, as also of the advice of the doctors who are specially competent in the matter. The latter may in particular judge that the investment in instruments and personnel is disproportionate to the results foreseen; they may also judge that the techniques applied impose on the patient strain or suffering out of proportion with the benefits which he or she may gain from such techniques."

"When inevitable death is imminent in spite of the means used, it is permitted in conscience to take the decision to refuse forms of treatment that would only secure a precarious and burdensome prolongation of life, so long as the normal care due to the sick person in similar cases is not interrupted. In such circumstances the doctor has no reason to reproach himself with failing to help the person in danger."

[Jacques Treatment]

People who wanted to keep Schiavo alive have shown themselves to be in a persistent idiotic state. Someone please remove their feeding tubes.
