A Midwestern Christian's definitions
A lovely Midwestern state, right in the dead center of the United States. Is well-known for its flat land (not a bad thing at all), the anti and pro-slavery conflicts in the 1850s, the case of Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka, the University of Kansas Jayhawks, the Wizard of Oz, the progressive-rock band of the same name, and the big cities of Wichita and Topeka.

Get the Kansas mug.A poor woman who has unfortunately been brain-damaged and subsequently ended up in the bed-ridden situation that she is currently in and has been in for over a decade and a half. However, this does NOT mean that she is useless! This is apparently what Michael Schiavo and the many liberals who choose to back him up see though. In addition, they also believe him when he says that Terri told him that she wanted to die.
What millions of people, especially they who follow Michael Schiavo, fail to realize is that there is no written will or recorded message confirming that this is what she ordered to have done. Think about this: if Terri Schiavo REALLY wanted to die, why would she still be alive and holding on to life like she is right now for 10 FULL DAYS? This woman is obviously fighting for her life; her Right To Live! This is all happening while Michael is fighting for her so-called "Right to Die". The proper term would actually be more like "Free me from my Disabled Wife", or even "Give me a Claim to Fame". I hope that all Christians and ANYONE who cares about this woman's right to live to pray and protest with all your heart, and never quit until she is gone, IF she goes that is. That is because we hope for a successful resolution for life in our favor, and if so, the right decision was made.

Remember: Terri Schiavo maybe brain-dead and unable to do a lot of things for herself, BUT she still serves very much of a purpose, and she is also an American. That means she is given the right to these three following qualities: the Right to LIFE, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness!!!

Get the Terri Schiavo mug.The largest and only true religion in the world. It currently consists of well over 2 BILLION people all over the globe, including the Middle East. Most Christians are dedicated to the teachings of Jesus Christ, and the word of God in both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. Just because of several million violent, hate-filled Christians who perform the kinds of acts they do, it doesn't mean that every single Christian (and definitely not the majority) are like the negative, ignorant, and destructive kinds of people that you stereotype them as. It is wrong to stereotype an entire worldwide religion and its people because of the actions of a few. And for those of you calling us hate-filled, homophobic, and violent; just keep in mind what the Muslims are doing over in the Middle East. Unlike them, we do not abuse and oppress our women (except for a very few terrible men). We believe in the sanctity of life, and we don't go out murdering and exterminating those of another religion or those who have no religion. In addition, we do not impede on the progress of scientific study as also falsely-claimed by many millions. Have you never heard of Gregor Mendel, the Catholic clergyman who discovered genetics in experiments with pea plants? That man is probably the finest example of how Christians actually promote the advancements in science, especially since many of those advancements lead to the saving of lives.
For those of you calling we Christians close-minded, redneck, hick, fascist, nazi, Republican (not that that's derogatory, by the way), gay-basher, warmonger, hypocrite, retard, Bible banger and many other, far more profane names and labels, perhaps you're not that open-minded yourselves. So, who's the REAL hypocrite?
