What if Terri Schiavo dies on Good Friday or Easter Sunday?

[BrainRants]

Any thoughts on how it would play out in the media and Wingnutland?

[katsy]

1. She is resurrected 3 days later. n/t

[madhat]

3. She gets a pass to Jesus.

Isn't this what the Christian Right wants?

[agingdem]

16. She is resurrected ...

and has been for over a decade.

[LiberalinNC]

2. Let's not go there - I can only imagine the crap the wingnuts would say!

[liberal N proud]

4. I am sure some would make it to be an act Faith or some

wild ride they will take the kool-aid bunch on.

5. What if the Pope dies simultaneously? n/t

[BrainRants]

8. Holy Crap! (no pun intended!) but that would be HUGE!

The upside would be that it would also let Schaivo disappear from the radar with what's left of her dignity. MSM would be All Pope, 24x7. Schaivo would be a nothing story.

Hmmmmm....

6. Won't happen most likely

Medically, it should be some time early next week to the end of next week.

17. Easter is Mar. 27th. That would be 9 days after tube removed.

Last I heard, the Drs said it usually takes a patient 10 to 14 days to die. That makes Easter a possibility!

If that should occur, the strong religious would surely make a connection, but I see no harm. What's wrong with them believing their God's will was finally done?

[Walt Starr]

18. It's more likely to occur after Easter

:shrug:

[sniffa]

7. and it rains Locusts

i can't wait to see more of the fundies on their knees crying their eyes out.

[msanthrope]

9. Start looking for people to shoot up to the sky--Rapture is

coming!!!

(Sarcasm)

[Capn Sunshine]

10. It would freak everyone out if they plugged her back in 3 days later

after all , the Talmud specifically states the Messiah is unaware who he/she is until called by God

[AlCzervik]

11. Thats probably the outcome the GOP hopes for

they will be the martyrs and maybe even make a big show of it at her funeral because this case is really about them you know, not her.

[Jose Diablo]

12. Somebody will find her portrait on

a pretzel or something

[Kathy in Cambridge]

13. and sell it on eBay!

:P

[jburton]

14. Her image will appear in cheese sandwiches for years to come

nt.

[peacetalksforall]

15. Ok, if we're going to go there...what about the rapture...are some

fundamentalists in favor of keeping her alive so that she can rise with them?

I considered my question as cynical, but I think I'm going to change it into a serious question because I really don't know these fundamentalists.

Since the Party they belong to changes things as they go along...is the rapture one of their reasons for their passion?

How lucky they are...to feel so strongly about the life of one person over another and others...and then have all kinds of Republican and Democrat representatives spend 7 million dollars for them, including the cost of Secret Service people and fuel to get that man in Texas back to Washington....just for them?

It must be a miracle.

[Carni]

19. I am sure that they'll time this thing so she gets hooked back up Sunday

Or she will get hooked back up sooner... but will "almost die"
and then low and behold on Sunday her condition (such as it is) will stabilize and the repukes and their media will tout this as an Easter miracle.

Call me nuts, but I have seen their little dramas one too many times to miss the obvious!

[sexybomber]

20. oh God.

We'd never hear the end of it. Ever. (Not that I think we're ever going to anyway...)

The RW has already made a martyr of this poor woman. I wonder how she'd react to this if she were capable of cognitive thought and speech?

[noonwitch]

21. Whenever she dies, I'm sure the right will find some way to blame Clinton

Or his wife.

[bluedog]

22. what can they say?

they've proved that they don't really believe in their religion....by not accepting that terri should get into Heaven.they preach Gods way.want it in classrooms on monuments.but when it comes down to true Faith they had none.........they would rather see her as a shell.....then to let her go...

Bottom line................they do not believe in the afterlife!
