"CULTURE OF LIFE" Wingnuts are such HYPOCRITES!
The tragic case of Terri Schiavo writes a new chapter in the ongoing American saga that is often titled “the culture war.” It’s no longer just about a so-called “right to life.” The Christian right insists that it’s about a “culture of life.” They’ve been waving that slogan around for years. Now mainstream America is getting used to it. Those of us who actively oppose the Christian right had better get used it, too. We’re going to be hearing a lot about this “culture of life” from now on.
“Culture of LIFE?” we ask, with justified outrage. These same people who claim to be the guardians of life are the first to demand the death penalty for murderers, indiscriminate bombing for Afghanis, Iraqis, and anyone else they don't like, etc., etc. The hypocrisy is so blatant, it hardly seems worth spelling out the details.

Not everyone who believes that starving a woman to death is wrong and killing babies that are too small to defend themself is wrong agrees with the death penalty. I don't think we need it in this day and age, and I know many other pro-lifers who agree with me.
However, there is a great difference between killing a criminal who has killed others with the hope of deterring crime than killing someone who has done nothing but be inconvient.
