William R. Falzone br> Seminole, Florida /p> p> I totally agree with Ben Stein about the courts being out of control. The part of his column that does not stand up is that Terri Schiavo is not brain dead. Mr. and Mrs. Schindler have hired a neurologist who has prostituted himself by declaring that Terri is not in a persistent vegetative state. In fact it has been reported in the news that this neurologist has been involved in many right-to-life cases. Terri is brain dead. CT scans show that where she used to have a cerebral cortex there is cerebrospinal fluid. Other neurologists have declared Terri to be in a persistent vegetative state. The burden is on Mr. Stein to provide proof that Mrs. Schiavo is NOT brain dead. Testimony by licensed practical nurses with limited scientific training is not proof. C'mon, Ben, what has happened to your otherwise sharp brain? br> -- Ed Parker /p> p> Dear Mr. Stein: My wife and I are prolife period. No exceptions. America is almost dead to the core. They are murdering Terri. This is Hitler reborn. America will pay for Her slide toward satanism. There should be a national outcry. We are too busy polishing our possessions, attending sports events and generally not paying attention to what is actually at stake here. Thank you so much for your stand and being out front. br> -- Marty /p>

How right Ben Stein is. God weeps at our inhumanity. What would it cost to hand this woman over to her parents to care for her? We are a people these days steeped in a deep sickness of PC and PC legalese. We are worthy of God's derision and that frightens me, we are better than that. Spare her some consideration and spare us God's contempt.
