Vatican City, Mar 21, 2005 / 22:00 pm
The Vatican has once again spoken out in favor of brain-damaged Terri Schiavo, who has been without food and water since her feeding tube was removed Friday.
A Florida federal judge ruled this morning that he saw no reason to renig the decision of a lower court and reinsert the tube, which has been feeding Schiavo for 15 years.
Javier Lozano, a member of the Pontifical Council for Health said that the act “is euthanasia”, and amounts to nothing more than a ruthless way to kill a person.
He added that, "The end of life is a question only in the hands of God. This is our belief. It is not something that must be in the hands of politicians or in the hands of physicians... but in the hands of God only."
