Jim, We all know that your liberal definition of "balanced" really means, "with a predominantly leftist/secularist or radical liberal slant", so of course the movie will not look "balanced" to you.Thanks for the good laugh!

James, ultimately the statement is an indictment of utopian ideologies such as Marxism which claim to serve man but in fact end up killing millions.

James writes:Unfortunately, this generalization has no basis in reality.Such attitudes can be held by either a conservative or a liberal: it's not a specifically "liberal" problem to be unable to abide petty differences within one's family.

Jim writes:Of course it is not NPR nor are abortions routine birth control.But my point is that they are engaged in a perfectly legal activity, serving women who want the services, whose right to those services â€" contraception, family planning information, and abortion â€" has been upheld in the Supreme Court.So we would actually expect them to locate their facilities in those areas that are most convenient to their clients.Again, I understand your moral disapproval, but the fact that they try to pick convenient locations is not in itself a nefarious activity.

Jim, it sounds so reasonable doesn't it? - I mean shelving abortion alongside contraception, family planning information, Supreme Court decisions, even effective placement of their stores.

Nothing in anything you or Jim have written on abortion shows any real knowledge of public health.My father was the one of the most innovative and intelligent directors of a local public health department in the country for over 25 years.He did work on abortion as a public health problem.The foundation of his approach was to keep Planned Parenthood out of Wichita.Then he attempted to work with each woman individually using the public health nurses he trained and the neighborhood clinics he established.His goal was to teach folks how to manage their lives, exercise discipline, create order, become literate so that they would recognize that abortion was wrong and have the means to act in a moral manner.He was successful as long as he was director.Within three months of his forced retirement, Planned Parenthood was in town doing their dirty work and all of Dad's programs jettisoned.

The Democrats and their genocidal allies will never allow abortion or anything else that they can politicize to be dealt with as public health matter.Neither will the Republicans.Simple reason: they will loose power and money if they do.

Jim, IMO has no interest in reducing abortion.He dosen't even see it as a problem.The only thing he is correct about is that we Christians are too timid in our opposition to it.He knows that working through the normal political structure will have little if any effect.

According to the OED, the term "judeo-christian" first shows up in 1899.

One reason may be due to the very examples that Jim cites: Christian culture has historically singled out Jewish culture as either evil or simply wrong, and examples of this can be found throughout the New Testament.

Jim, regarding my background.My father was a physician who disliked hospitals because he felt they did not treat the whole person in the context of his community, so he went into public health after getting his MPH from Harvard.He was director of the Wichita/Sedgwick County Dept of Community Health for 23 years.During that time he created programs and got them funded that would still be ahead of their time if subsequent directors had not dismantled them and replaced them with approaches that are more bureaucratic.He was twice elected chairman of the Public Health component of the U.S. Conference of Mayors, which at the time had never happened before.
