Do we force military consciencious objectors to fight–NO.

Do we believe soldiers should disregard their conscience and follow all orders blindly–NO.

I believe the liberals would go crazy if either of these long standing beliefs were to be overturned.

So why, when it comes to murdering the unborn, do liberals think they can dictate to physicians and other medical personel that they must have no conscience.

This is an outright highjacking of one of the most basic freedoms in America – freedom of choice. No one should be coerced into doing anything!

Any changes imposed by the government and on the rights of doctors, is to undermine the laws and beliefs of Christianity.

All medical professionals have always had the prerogative to refuse to perform a procedure if it went against their moral values or felt that it was harmful to the patient. As a long term R.N. I would leave the profession before being forced to perform a procedure against my will. With the shortage of qualified medical professionals that now exists, I find it unwise, to allow such a medical ruling to become law. It may be a large factor in whether or not person would chose medicine for an occupation.

The rights to moral and religious freedoms should at all times be protected. If prisoners are allowed to practice freedom of religion or life style choices, shouldn't doctors be given the same moral and religious rights in their practices.

Please, please, please do not rescind this conscience protection rule. It is the very foundation of medical practice and even our society as a whole to have the freedom to act within what our conscience dictates.

Do they make Muslims handle Pork, No! Is the reason because of Religious Conviction, Yes! They don't make Muslims do anything they say is a Religious Conviction. You can beat and abuse your wife to maintain her lesser status as as a Human Being. You can kill your daughter for the sake of Honer. They proclaim Hate and Superiority over Jews and Christians, (Infidels) because that's their Religious responsibility. You don't hear of Muslim Gay Bars or of Muslims being forced to tolerate people with a different sexual choice, Oh No! If you're a Christian or a Jew you will be charged with a hate crime for living by or believing in the Bible's Scriptures. If you have any Religious Convictions as a Christian or Jew you will have to keep them to yourself or go to jail. I would say all of this to my Mother at the Dinner Table because she believes as most normal Americans do, that a Doctor has a right to his or her Convictions.
