Abortion and Birth Control
In your editorial of July 25 (“When Political Ideology Is Unhealthy”), you note that the Bush Administration had made a decision regarding federal funding that was “contrary to the recommendation of a prestigious scientific panel”--as though this were the only voice that needs to be heard in such a life-or-death issue.
It seems we’re well on the road to the creation of some kind of Orwellian society in which “science” decides all. Maybe it’s too late. Maybe we’re already there.
