...it's an intelligence problem.

I don't believe I insulted you. Why do you insist on insulting me?

I'm just not going to cast stones because Frist's sin appears to be larger than my own. Have you ever heard of removing the log from ones own eye before advising others that they have splinters in theirs?

We are all guilty before God. Mr. Frist's investment in a hospital that may have saved my life or another family member's life is not going to be condemened by me. I can only thank God that there are those who are willing to invest in hospitals today. Quite frankly a hospital chain is not a very good investment. A lot of hospitals today are going belly up.

Would you prefer it if all of Mr. Frist's hospitals suddenly closed tomorrow? Would that promote the sanctity of life? Or are the lives of old people and cancer victims not important in your theology?

If I remember correctly, by judicial decision a public hospital cannot prevent abortions taking place therein . Private hospitals and church related hospitals can prevent.

If I remember correctly, HCA deals with public as well as private hospitals.

The fact that you would make the argument is itself insulting. Sorry I got personal. For more on HCA, see my next post.
