Bob Debates U.S. News & World Report Editor

This is the show from Monday June 11th, 2007.

SUMMARY:

* Dan Gilgoff Defends Dr. Dobson: Bob Enyart debates the author of, "The Jesus Machine", a book used to mobilize the anti-Christian left about the recent pro-life Open Letter campaign . Dan Gilgoff wrote in the Denver Post that the Partial-birth Abortion ruling "expanded the notion of fetal personhood," which is a blatant misrepresentation of the ruling; and also, that "Anthony Kennedy lent further legitimacy to the new notion of fetal rights. He repeatedly used the word 'infant' and 'unborn child' in place of 'fetus' ..."

Today's Resource: Please help BEL publish the Open Letter to Dr. Dobson and get a downloadable Plot manuscript! Those who love Bob's 330-page manuscript, The Plot , are excited about the availability of a downloadable .PDF version! "A downloadable Plot is a premium," says Joe Rossano of Noblesville, Indiana, "because now I'm able to quickly search its 10,000 Scripture references to find the information I'm looking for!" If you would like to donate to the Open Letter to Dr. Dobson newspaper ad in the Colorado Springs Telegraph-Gazette, you can do so and get a downloadable Plot at the same time! We will apply the full purchase price of a downloadable Plot bought anytime through June 18th to our Open Letter project! This will help us get our newspaper ad funded, and you will get a computer-searchable Plot manuscript on your computer! Thank you to all who have helped already, and who will help with this crucial project!

Obviously, Mr. Gilgoff hasn't read the ruling.

How about supporting the Sanctity of Life Act written by Ron Paul and introduced into Congress assembled.

Maybe Bob should do a show on that :idea:
