Jesus and the FDA
Oh my..This is disturbing. The Bush Administration plans to appoint this Dr. to head the FDA panel on women's health policy?
A Dr. who refuses to prescribe contraceptives to unmarried women; "Dr. W. David Hager, an obstetrician-gynecologist who also wrote, with his wife Linda, Stress and the Woman's Body, which puts "an emphasis on the restorative power of Jesus Christ in one's life" and recommends specific Scripture readings and prayers for such ailments as headaches and premenstrual syndrome. " and wrote another book titled As Jesus Cared for Women: Restoring Women Then and Now.

If Hager becomes chairman of the 11-member Reproductive Health Drugs Advisory Committee, he will lead its study of hormone-replacement therapy for menopausal women, one of the biggest controversies in health care. Some conservatives are trying to use doubts about such therapy to discredit the use of birth-control pills, which contain similar compounds.
