New Florida town would restrict abortion
Domino's founder building community around Catholic university

NAPLES, Florida (AP) -- If Domino's Pizza founder Thomas S. Monaghan
has his way, a new town being built in Florida will be governed
according to strict Roman Catholic principles, with no place to get an
abortion, pornography or birth control.

He's not trying to convert anybody living there. He's taking empty
tomato fields, building a university, and building a town...and telling
everybody who buys there the rules in advance.

Just consider it a big Home Owner's Association.

And you're about 3 days late on this "news".



Well, I hope it turns out as badly as his crappy pizza.

Property in that town is actually going to be very much in demand. You
used to be able to buy property out there for $5-10k per acre. Now it's
$150k+...and you're in the middle of nowhere.

Jeb just attended a ribbon cutting ceremony there two weeks ago.

Right now, students at Ave Maria attend classes at a temporary campus in
Naples set up about 5 or 6 miles from me. We use several of the students
as babysitters...and almost every one of them is part of a family with
10-12 siblings. I doubt the "no condom" and "no abortion" rules would
scare any of those families away.





My problem with this kind of mind control crap is that it is the same sort
of stupidity extant in much of the Moslem world.


That's bull****.

They're not stoning people for transgressions. They're not trying to
assimilate a bunch of people who have been living there their whole lives.
As gfretwell pointed out, it's a 5000 acre gated community...and everybody
knows the rules going in.



This isn't a
Christian Iran, even though some fundies would like to turn it into one.
Another problem is the desire of these religious idiots to try to spread
their control.

Best thing that could happen? After an investment of a few hundred million
dollars, a natural disaster such as a tornado or a hurricane flattens the
place. An act of god that sends a strong message.

There's that wonderful Harry Humanity shining through again.
