Please take time to read yesterday’s column by Peggy Noonan. Her characterization of the culture of life is spot on.

    every once in awhile someone [peggy noonan this time] seems to hit the mark
    the issue this time is in trying to understand what motivates or drives the positions of the 2 sides in the terri schiavo controversy
    thanks for the heads-up

    I guess I’ve just seen the word “thanatos” a lot lately. Lots of bloggers are explaining that the word “euthanasia” comes from the Greek “eu” meaning “good” and “thanatos” meaning “death.” I was hoping that the word “thanatic” was a real word because it looks a lot like “fanatic,” but sadly, the correct form is “thanatotic.”
