On what basis are they attempting to ban the books, A-man?

From what I understand, the catastrophic coverage kicks in only after a certain minimum is reached, say $5000 -
True, but that is not my point. My point

No one said they should be expected to stock the books
-
No, that would be the priest
-
No, but it would make sense to cater to the students tastes and/or honor book requests made by students. The Bible the school is founded upon involves as much swords and sorcery as the Potter series

That was intended as a joke

That a school, an institution of learning, is concerned about their students descent into the occult, sorcery, magic, which is, it should be pointed out the headmaster, not real

If you feel the government has a responsibility to protect its citizens from hostile nations why stop there when everyone is put at risk if public health is allowed to fail? Diseases are often infectious, public health measures and prevention of dangerous health practices endanger wide sectors, whole geographic regions and at times the whole nation. As more and more viruses, pathogens and bacteria evolve and become more drug resistant, would it be unreasonable to suggest that in the future, these threats will outweigh those posed by other nations, rendering our currently held beliefs regarding -

Enjoy. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn41...17/ai_n10144240 Excerpt: ""The situation is grave," said Dr. Michael Gerardi, a spokesman for the emergency doctors' group, American College of Emergency Physicians. "We are a symptom of the disease that is the health care system." In many areas of the country, especially in cities because of large numbers of uninsured people, emergency rooms are crushing under the increased volume and patient care is often compromised, doctors insisted.
