Cover Insulting and Demeaning
RECEIVED Thu., Feb. 2, 2006
Dear Editor,
I find your cover photo of this issue extremely distasteful, and I am offended that you would desecrate the Bible in this manner on a publication available to the general public ["The New Texas Family Planning," News, Jan. 27]. Somehow I feel that you would hesitate to picture a Koran in the same manner. The debate about abortion is one thing, but there is no reason to insult or demean a religious symbol in doing so.
