Most important, the birth control issue and the use of condoms to prevent the spread of STD's. Also the fact that women have no power in the church. Then there is the horrific pedophile scandal. I had an uncle that was a priest and an aunt that was a nun. Both of them were wonderful people. But I just couldn't tolerate the blind allegiance to a faith that was so wrong in so many ways. Funny enough, my dad is Episcopalian now. <br />Kirk, they should all lose their jobs and perhaps some jail time. Any doctor that allowed religion to get in the way of saving his patient, is a criminal to me. I was married to a doctor. I never knew of a case that he had where religious views were an issue. He was a resident in a Catholic hospital, as far as I knew there was never anything this extreme going on there. He was an Anesthesiologist, and presided over every kind of surgery, obstetrics or other wise. He was a Catholic too, but that was never a thought in his head when he was practicing medicine. It was always, what would be the best outcome for the patient. I think it's pretty clear, when a patient is miscarrying. You save the mothers life. Especially when the pregnancy is not that advanced. I have known women who have had miscarriages, that unfortunately had to be terminated, they went on to have successful pregnancies and full happy productive lives. Unfortunately, for this woman, that was not even a thought in their head. This is clearly, a case of malpractice.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17885426575922045330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6701557141086131669.post-20741596957322522742012-11-16T10:55:37.035-05:002012-11-16T10:55:37.035-05:00Should it be the doctors that lose their jobs, or ...Should it be the doctors that lose their jobs, or the lawmakers (and clerics) who tied the doctors hands?Kirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02155991693956178030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6701557141086131669.post-15375376924791739242012-11-15T21:39:51.844-05:002012-11-15T21:39:51.844-05:00I don't have a problem with God; it is his fan...I don't have a problem with God; it is his fan club that I can't stand. Pat, it never ceases to amaze me that people can be completely rational about everything except religion.<br />The bible-thumper right did a number on my faith - I used to do mass every Sunday (I am Presbyterian (catholics without a Pope and pedophiles)- alas, no longer.<br /><br />Excellent post!<br /><br /><br />SargeSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892211119418623595noreply@blogger.com
