‘devotion & love’…I’m sure she saw how deficient that were in Terri’s case. Beside, she was an intruder in the marriage of Michael and Terri, so I wouldn’t worry too much about her marrying Michael! For all we know, she could be another party plotting for Terri’s death! I know I know. Cruel thought right…but not impossible…and Terri’s death was not ‘kind’ !

If they can put themselves in such scandalous position, I’m sure they can take the critics.
 
Ya know some things I don’t recall people saying clear enough to quote them and to try to find the news story seems like too much work. So saying how lazy I am and since we are just talking here, does anyone remember the things M. Schiavo would say in contempt of Terri’s family and the Catholic Faith they were displaying in such desparate conditions? Oh, okay I’ll start digging up the St. Petersburg Times web. Get back to you…
 
Found nurse’s affidavit and USCCB source covering witholding food and water, etc. Need skills to put the links into this post! Struggle, struggle, foil and trouble!!
 
Once again Bishop Lynch has disgraced himsel by getting embroiled in the Terri Schiavo debacle.

When the poor girl was being starved to death, he did nothing, said nothing!

If that wasn’t bad enough, when she was deprived of the Holy Eurcharist shortly before her death, he did nothing, said nothing!

Now it appears he is complicit in the marriage of Michael Schiavo, Terri’s adulterous husband, who got married at Espiritu Santo Catholic Church in Safety Harbor, FL.

Bishop Lynch is the shepherd of his flock, The St. Petersburg Diocese, and it is quite obvious that he is not doing his job. Could it be that the Church Hierarchy is afraid to say anything to him because of his connection with CRS?

Bishop Lynch’s cowardly behavior only reaffirms my belief that the paths of hell are strewn with the bones of priests and bishops.

Miami Archbishop Favalora, are you aware of what is going on in this diocese?

Anyone interested in this case really needs to read Silent Witness by Mark Fuhrman.

I am worried for the safety of Michael’s new wife, and for his children as well. This man has a pattern of behavior that is very disturbing.

MARK FUHRMAN…!!! :eek: He is not an authority on anything in my book… Oh my… does he really need another 15 min of fame?
 
Jerome, I suggest you go back and read post number three on this thread before you end up going on a free vacation. Just a word of caution…
 
I think this was a deliberate move by Michael. He notified the papers of the wedding, and I can’t see that as the move of someone who has repented.
Especially since what happened to Terri was so horrific, and so well known, I think a public statement about his change of heart would have been neccesary before the wedding. ** This would have kept the faithful from being scandleized. **

Here is part of the account I read:

" A day after they obtained a marriage license from the clerk of the circuit court of Pinellas County, Michael Schiavo and Jodi Centonze were wed in the Espiritu Santo Catholic Church in Safety Harbor in a private ceremony apparently known only to family, friends and the St. Petersburg Times…

Although the St. Petersburg Times had Saturday morning quoted Schiavo family members saying they hoped to keep media attention to a minimum, they also quoted John Centonze as saying that the National Enquirer had contacted him, offering to pay him for wedding pictures, claiming that they had offered him $5,000 for a picture of Jodi Centonze no matter how old it was. Although it is now known that The St. Petersburg Times already knew when the wedding would be held, they coyly reported that Centonze’s brother said the wedding would take place before Valentine’s Day, his sister’s birthday."

Thanks for the warning Bob. I did read thread No. 3 before making my comment. I guess I’m just frustrated with the way things are going on in our country and in the world.

Far too many bishops remain silent so as not to disrupt the status quo. The Abortion issue is a very good example. Aside from Bishop Burke and a handful of others, who have gone so far as to criticise the hypocrisy of the many pro-abortion Catholic politicians, how many vocal bishops are there?

There is a very dangerous underpinning here. Those in charge have become so relient on the support of parishes and their contribution, etc. that they have overlooked the fact that the outside world is becoming a secular society which has no use for God.This Godless society will not hesitate to remove tax-exempt status for churches or demolish an existing church under the guise of ‘eminent domain’.

Far be it for me to judge anyone…from Michaeal Schiavo to abortion doctors, women who have had abortions, politicians or clergy who have remained far too silent, etc. We all know that God in His tender mercy will forgive all who are sorry.

We must however be vigilant.

I agree I think it was a deliberate move by Michael. I also suspect, and I’m not trying to be uncharitable or judgemental and I could be wrong, but I suspect this was done in a Catholic Church to thumb his nose at the Catholics who were horrified at his actions last year, especially denying his dying wife a visit from a priest and Communion.

I hope I’m wrong. Michael very well could have repented and his intentions may be good, but I base my suspicions on his past behavior.

I HOPE he did repent, unfortunately I really doubt it. But I will continue to pray for God to have mercy on him and for his conversion, as well as for his new “wife” and children.

Michael Schiavo permitted his wife to receive Easter communion on Sunday, when she also was anointed with holy oil, blessed and absolved of her sin by a priest.

Felos said Terri Schiavo “received the sacrament [of Communion] on Easter at approximately 4 p.m. … A drop of wine was put on Ms. Schiavo’s lip.”

Michael Schiavo did many things, but he did not deny his wife Communion.

You can think what you want of him as a person - I personally don’t know much at all about what kind of person he is.

He is well known for lying about using the “n” word at the OJ trial. (He testified that he didn’t use it in describing people)
Tapes were produced at the trial where he was recorded using the word.
I think that what people tend to forget is that those recordings were regarding dialogue he was putting into a book manuscript (even back then he was interested in writing crime stories).
Fuhrman’s defense was that he used the “n” word during those conversations because he was describing fictional dialogue in a novel where he tried to accurately portray the language used by the characters.

Believe him or not, he is one of the few people to take on the Kennedy family and come out on top. Michael Skakel is in prison right now for the murder of Martha Moxley because of the book written by Mark Fuhrman.

It wouldn’t hurt to take a look-see at Silent Witness to see his perspective on the Schiavo case after he combed through all the records and interviewed key witnesses.
I found it a good read.
 
What bothers me is why does Michael Schiavo’s marriage make the news and not the over 100,000 marchers at the March for Life last weekend in Wash.DC? He is a man who needs our prayers like any other person who does not understand or respect the value of life, not news stories.

Because they have rejected Christ.
 
I’m new to Catholicism, but isn’t there something about public repentence needed for public scandal? I don’t think the Apostles would have stood for this. Even Paul had to make the trek to Peter after his conversion to assure his intentions were pure and his repentence real. And the Holy Spirit made sure there was a public record of it, in case anyone would be scandalized by it!

Just my 2 cents worth on this subject. :rolleyes:

We’re all good Monday morning quarterbacks. We seem to have all the facts perfectly straight and know Canon law better than their Bishop.

Of course, we’re more concerned for the children involved than vengance toward Michael. We can all be proud of ourselves for an abundance of forgivness.

If we do not bring situations/controversies like this to light, they are forgotten.

Apparently this is still in the minds of some concerned Catholics.
