“Above all, Alzheimer wanted the medical world to recognize that mental illnesses have an undeniable material component.

“The fundamental act of medical care is assumption of responsibility. Surgery has assumed responsibility for disease which is largely acute, local or traumatic. This is responsibility for the entire range of injuries and wounds, local infections, benign and malignant tumors, as well as a large fraction of those pathologic processes and anomalies which are localized in the organs of the body. The study of surgery is a study of these diseases, the conditions and details of their care.” WellsBodyCareProcessResponsibilityStudyConditionsDiseaseFundamentalsDetailsMedicalWoundsLocalsRangeAssumptionInjuryOrgansSurgeryFractionsInfectionBenignMedical CareTumorsAnomalies Author:Francis Daniels Moore

“Many good Christians are confused about complex social issues of our day, such as doctor-assisted death or medical research which uses stem cells from human embryos. They wonder, 'Why shouldn't science use discarded fetuses for research?' And if someone finds his medical condition intolerable and hopeless, 'why shouldn't he have the legal right to end his life?'
