> Whether you are for it or against it. it is a legal medically approved Couple of Devil's advocate comments - really: 1) Would it make you feel special to know that your doctor compromised his own personal/religious beliefs FOR YOU? Or for that matter, would it comfort you to know your doctor compromised his own personal/religious beliefs in his professional conduct? 2) The argument for abortion counseling in states where it was prohibited was that the doctor has a First Amendment right to speak, but the Supreme Court has also held that the First Amendment guarantees a right NOT to speak, if one wishes ("silence" is a type of "speach"). So would it be proper to terminate a medical student, an employer, etc. for his First Amendment guarantees? I realize the case is in Canada, where those silly Canadians have different rules of engagement (LOL). However, the question was, I wonder what would we do HERE. As the lawyers say, the facts make the case. So I guess the Devil is in the details. Joe P. "Warriors fight to live, Gladiators fight to kill." - Menachus Dornus

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
