So Im first going to comment on the school lunch issue because Ive had a similar experience It was brought to my attention that my kids were buying lunch but not eating it I decided to pack their lunch My kids will not eat a sandwich so I decided I was not going to waste food or money packing a sandwich and instead substituted cheese and crackers or peanut butter crackers which is an appropriate substitute for grainmeat I then packed carrots a fruit generally an orange or apple or a fruit cup and a granola bar also a grain alternative I was sent a note home that it was unacceptable to not have a sandwich included in their lunch I worked at the time in the lunch room of a day care and knew what was acceptable and unacceptable according to the USDA but in my opinion what the USDA requires of a public facility offering lunch and what I offer should be totally seperate The eating habits of my children is my business their health is in my hands I feel sorry for children whose parents choose to set bad examples and for parents that dont care enough and let their children live off of take out and junk but that is their choice nI will now address the abortion issue that was thrown in just because I find it A outrageous to even mention it and B because people are uneducated and base take things out of context or base it off of hearsay and uneducated opinions I personally dont believe its right in all circumstances I believe there are other options I believe that their are also situations where it may be necessary medically or mentally as in a rape case BUT I also believe that it is our bodies we do in fact own them the fetus is a person but it is not seperated from you until birth which makes it yours until then State has enough power already controlling what I do with my body is my business I dont believe they should be allowed to tell me I can or cant have one I also dont think all insurance companies should have to pay for it unless of course its a medically neccessary procedure due to health risks of the mother the fetus or in the case of rapeincest I dont think insurance companies should be allowed to tell you that you cant buy birth control that is taking it to far I realize certain religions dont believe in birth control they believe that if God wants you to have a baby hell give you one but he didnt put these people on Earth that invented these things for nothing If there was a flood and a boat came by I would get in I wouldnt wait for God God sent the boat I wish people would realize that this country is religiously diverse it was founded on religious diversity state and religion should be seperate and publicly owened companies companys with stock on NASDAQ etc and religion should be seperate No religion has the right to enforce their beliefs on others Its sad to say that as Christian especially of the Baptist denomination that is more frequent than in any other religion The religion that worships Alla sp doesnt ask that everyone bow down for  minutes at high noon for prayer Catholics dont require or ask other religions to go to confession Jews dont ask that more Jewish holidays be made official government holidays The Baptist scream for Christmas and Easter and anti abortion as do the Catholic on that one they are a denomination of Christians I just think people need less power and more tolerance of others JesusGod was not a judgemental person in fact he was the opposite of that he taught acceptance and love of all even those that turned away from him We could all learn from that quit thumping your Bible and actually read it
