69. I'm in Florida right now, a bridge away from the Terri Schiavo circus -- |

-- in Pinellas Park. The folks gathered arounhd that hospice strike me as just the people we're talking about here -- the fundamentalists' most hysterical wing. These are the undiagnosed cult maniacs, glaring at variance in all its forms, and moralizing their petty butts off in a sort of scorched-earth condemnation of any judge who doesn't affirm their bias.
Wow is it a frightening thing to see.
I would suggest that if the leftist Christians among us were to have some impact on the process, that they should target these people and remove them from 'Christianity.' I can read and genuinely admire the socialist veins in the ministry of Jesus but I'll be damned if I'm going to put up with Fred Phelps screaming "God Hates Fags" at gay funerals. At least not without a comment.
Henry told the Pope to cram it and started his own damned church. It's an interesting precedent.
I think leftist Christians are well within their rights to do the same to the nutcase fundies. Edge them to the precipice and give 'em a good shove.
