Privacy, schmivacy. From the American Community Survey to the Post-Abortion Grandparents' Kit - when will people learn to mind their own business?

The Post-Abortion Grandparents' Kit is brought to you by James Dobson's charming associates, better known for recently outing SpongeBob Squarepants. It includes the book I'll Hold You In Heaven and the brochure "Your Daughter's Abortion and You"...which brings some pretty sick visuals to mind, if you ask me. Seriously. If my parents learned I'd had an abortion (which, for the record, I have not), I highly doubt their first concern would be whether they'd get to hold the baby someday in heaven.

Dobson also has a special page devoted to "marriage under fire." Their persecution complex knows no bounds! "How your religious freedom is sacrificed at the altar of political correctness — and what you can do about it"? Give me a break. The subheader above that little gem links to another book for sale called Persecution: How Liberals are Waging War Against Christians. Its description?

Reclaim Your Right To Participate In The Political Arena

Author David Limbaugh exposes the subtle but pervasive discrimination against biblical Christianity in our culture. Using real, sometimes shocking, examples from Hollywood, public schools and other venues, he shows how terms like "tolerance" and the mythical "separation of church and state" have been used to portray Christianity as repressive, ignorant and offensive. This is a call to action for those who want to exercise their right to influence popular culture and find true religious freedom.

They can't go for five minutes without invoking the evils of Hollywood, can they?

It makes me laugh when Christians consider themselves oppressed and unable to "participate" in the political arena. Translation: if you don't listen to us and believe what we tell you our religion means and do exactly what we say — no matter what you may personally believe — then you're persecuting us. What about those who don't subscribe to your beliefs? Are we being persecuted? When we stand up for our right to function as secular human beings in a society that does not and should not enforce a prescribed religion, how does that affect you? I'm not rounding up any pregnant Christians and forcing them into an abortion clinic, so what gives you the right to try keeping me out of one if I need it?

It all boils down to privacy. My body is my business. Your religion is your business. Keep your nose out of mine, and I'll do the same. (Unless your religion involves sacrificing gorgeous redheaded babes to the Aztec god Limbaughcoatl on the town square, that is).
