So?

Felos' opposition, including in the legal battle, has been dismissed in the media and perhaps even in the courts for the sole reason that they have strong religious beliefs. In some arenas, you could cut the contempt for Christian concerns with a knife.

I don't see why at the very least the court of public opinion shouldn't include all the facts, including the religious beliefs of the attorney arguing for Terri's death.

If there were a case arguing creationism in schools, and one side included Christian conservatives, it might not make a difference in the legal arguments if the opposing side believed human beings were planted here by flying saucer aliens who also build the Pyramids.

But it ought to at least shut up the people crowing about how the religious nuts don't have a good grip on the reality of the situation.
