Barry Lynn, head of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, says the Religious Right owes the entire country an apology for politicizing the death of Terri Schiavo.
Schiavo's autopsy conclusively proved that she was severely brain damaged with no hope of recovery. Except for motor functions, her brain was dead.
Ethics Daily has posted a story today quoting Religious Right leaders who remain unrepentant about the furor they caused over the court order to remove her feeding tube and let the rest of her body die.
It is becoming clear that many leaders of the Religious Right are proving themselves to be disciples of Machiavelli more than of Jesus. They can't admit they made a mistake.

Who are these religious right zealots? Might should look at the anti-christian track record of this group that is asking these folks to say I am sorry. Can't find anything good for sure they have done to further the kingdom of God.
Why does anyone have the right to legislate something as private as this case was. The effort to make this a front page story should be a shame for all us. Our government is trying to legislate there idea of morality for all us. What ever happened to free will?
You can hardly expect people who do not possess a conscience to be aware of wrong doing. When they stole the Southern Baptist Convention, didn't they do away with the priesthood of the believer? If that is true, than it was nothing less than the public act of surrendering their conscience, hearts, minds, and souls to the direction of mortal men. "It is better to serve GOD, than men."
Joodi,
Good point!
