Leigh Sanders: Can’t love, judge at same time

Regarding the Nov. 4 news article “Anti-abortion group can open next to clinic”: Now that the Raleigh City Council has forced Hand of Hope to reveal its true intention for occupying property on Jones Franklin Road. It’s not to provide medical services or professional counseling but to pontificate religious dogma and provide pregnancy advice to unsuspecting patients entering an abortion clinic next door. Who will step in and teach that we can’t ascribe love and judgment to a person at the same time?
