You still haven't posted any facts that you say support your idiotic claims.LOL i KNEW you wouldnt answer because it further expose the failure in your posts
also you MIGHT want to read the thread again you seem lost and have no clue what you are talking about lol
let us know when you have any facts that support your failed claims, thanks!
There are Christian religions that oppose interracial and interfaith marriages. Do they get the same ability to deny checkups to a child that has mixed faith or mixed parents? What about a Christian doctor who refuses to see children of unwed mothers?
who said that?
also youll have to be more specific with the word oppose and marriage . . . .
to give an answer that might help you, yes some Christians will not conduct a religious marriage for gays based on their religious beliefs?
The real real issue is where to draw the line, because not every case works out lie this one where another doctor saw the baby. Life is full of unexpected events and accidents, and if all the people who took it upon themselves to serve the public all of a sudden started picking and choosing who among the public meets their criteria, we would see the end of civilized society.If I were gay I wouldn't be seeking treatment, service or anything from anyone that looked down upon me, or whispered as I walked by. I understand that the government can legislate laws that provide a legal remedy for discrimination, but it cannot legislate acceptance or tolerance, and the distinction is one really worth noting. Why would you want to have anything done by someone that thinks (For whatever reason or motive) you're dirty and icky, or whatever, why? Are these homosexuals under some delusion that because the government says so, that people all of a sudden will begin accepting them? No, of course not, so why bother? According to a great many here, the public is coming around to gays, and their lifestyle choices, so then it follows that there are many, many other options for any particular service; service that would be performed by someone more open and tolerant, even accepting. That's where I do business if I'm gay. I don't expect someone to just automatically like me..
Tim-
Well seeing as there is no "fag baby" in this story. I don't care.
I think a being a doctor is a profession and a business. And you should reserve the right to do business with whom you choose.
First do no harm. I have no problem with a bakery withholding a cake based on religious belief. But medical care is a whole nother ballgame. You cant refuse medical care based on sexual orientation.
why would I? do you?You said:
This is false, I dont assume she is a Christian, I am one and Christianity has nothing to do with this in reality, if this woman claims it does she is dishonest.
I was curious why you don't assume she's Christian.
Does that go for cops and firemen too?
This doc was part of a larger practice....
Do cops and firemen give up their right to practice their religious beliefs in the commission of their jobs?

thats easy to answer, theres nothing in Christianity that says she can't provide healthcare to that child
And if her partner had said "no, I feel the same as you do"? That is the point.
I'm not calling for anything to be legally done to this doctor, but I think it is very important that other people are aware of her religion based bigotry. I also think there should be laws protecting people from it because of the scenarios where there isn't a backup available.
It really is astounding, to me at least, the extent to which you go to excuse this behavior.She served the baby by having her partner see the baby.
Was it really? Is that the impression you got or you are just deeming it so because of your position?Which was probably a better experience for the parents as well.
I would bet you any amount that had they known in advance about her that would have never even gone in the same zip code, but fact is that she saw them in a prenatal visit and then decided that being a bigot is more important than professional standards. A for the "relationship" it is a line of BS. A physician is not supposed to develop a relationship beyond that of a professional one and not a single professional relationship criteria includes bigotry as an acceptable standard.Why would they want to have a doctor see their baby who refuses to see them the same way a hetero couple is seen?
Excellent circular argument to go nowhere with. Typical gay agenda justification.another post and another lie and strawman lol
Try to make a post that doesnt completely fail next time
also we are STILL waiting on you, please let us know when you have any facts that support your failed claims, . . . . heck just ONE will do . . . thanks!
1.)So you assume she's what....Muslim?
2.)And she didn't refuse to provide healthcare to the child because of her religion. She didn't think she would be the right person to have a doctor/patient relationship with the child's parents because of her religion. Not the same thing.
Great post, thank you.I recall, at some point in my DP history, using the example of "What if a doctor denied baby care because he didn't think the parents should have had a baby" as an intentionally absurd extension to people who are ok with doctors and pharmacologistis denying Plan B and permanent birth control procedures, another place where for some reason we allow doctors to refuse to do their job over their sanctimony.
I never imagined in a million years a doctor would be enough of a bigoted prick to actually do it.
It's terrible enough to deny care because you assume a woman is a slut, or you're so patronizing that you don't believe women are intellectually capable of making their own family planning choices.
But to project that onto a baby? Really? This is where America fallen to? And people are defending this? Denying health care to someone who didn't even get to make any choices in the first place, because of who their parents happen to be?
People are so dogmatic about defending the bigoted's supposed "right" to harm others that they would allow a doctor to deny a baby health care? What if this had been an issue of illness, rather than routine?
No law can function in reality, when you look at it in a vacuum. That's why there's a "yelling fire in a crowded room" exception. But if that were to come up as a case today, I bet people would sit there and shrug about people getting trampled to death because some idiot decided to start a stampede, defending his "speech rights."
Doctors who are unwilling to do their job need their license revoked. They should not be able to refuse care because they don't like someone, much less refuse care because they don't like someone who isn't even their patient. Their job is to serve the health of the population. If they can't deal with that, they should do something else.
Is everyone just going to let this get to the point where they have no idea if a given doctor will help them and they just have to knock on doors until they find someone who isn't a selfish asshole? America's health care system is broken enough, without adding in exceptions for bigots to refuse to help their patients.
There was a time when doctors were expected to keep their personal nonsense to themselves and just do their damn job, rather than being permitted to hang people's health in the balance of their judgmentality. If you want to preech to the unwashed masses, go be a pastor.
I don't give a **** about the "free speech" of doctors on the job. Their job is to treat people, not to make a point. If they can't do that, they shouldn't be in the health care profession. People's health is too important to be subject to the whims of bigots.

I hope you are never in the need of life saving intervention having to do the seeking.Would we? I think you missed my point though. Drawing the line is done by the one seeking the service, not the one providing it.
Tim-
I hope you are never in the need of life saving intervention having to do the seeking.
1.) weird i dont assume she is anythign if you read back you;ll see me claim a couple of times id like to know what she is because it makse no sensem i have no clue what she is because i dont know any religion that logical would be the foundation of her decision.
2.) actually they are the same thing who doesnt get the healthcare? the child
but please lets not talk about such a mentally retarded example of splitting hairs like that, im keeping it to topic and will continue to do so.
say we use your wording for ****s and giggles.
I still dont know any religion that would be the foundation to not treat the child based on a patient/parent relationship :shrug:
and you didnt answer my question.
I asked why would I assume she is christian? would you?
