What would Jesus promote?
Byline: Mark I. Pinsky
Don Colbert is not the first doctor to use religion to sell a healthful lifestyle to Christians.
Walt Larimore, a physician who practiced in Kissimmee, Fla., for 16 years, grappled with the issue before releasing "Alternative Medicine: The Christian Handbook."
"We did debate how to title this book," says Larimore, now with Focus on the Family, an evangelical organization in Colorado. "Our decision was that because it was coming from a decidedly Christian world view _ we had an obligation to the reader, the publisher, to let them know where we were coming from."
But for some Christians, there are larger questions raised by Colbert's book, "What Would Jesus Eat?" Like, "What products or causes should Jesus' name promote?" Or, "Where would Jesus draw the line?"
