TITLE-
"Working for the Lord"
"I have a question with which I hope you can help me.
If, as your website says, you are "Honoring the Lord in all we do by operating the company in a manner consistent with biblical principles." And, if you do not want to pay for insurance for women for birth control and abortions, then why do you buy merchandise from Communist China, thereby supporting the Chinese government and its wide-spread one-child policy that essentially mandates abortion and all kinds of contraception?
That seems pretty hypocritical to me. Or is it just that the bottom line is really what counts?"
I was going to give you (or Jon Stewart) credit for the part of your great post, but figured that whomever read my email would have no idea who 'earthside' or Jon Stewart are.
