“At Planned Parenthood, we see the impact of abortion stigma firsthand, in the women who delay getting reproductive health care because they fear they’ll be labeled and judged. We see the effect of stigma on doctors, health center staffers, and others who help provide abortion services. And we see the impact in laws that regulate and restrict abortion in ways that would never happen with any other medical procedure.” WayHelpingHappensCareLawEffectsDoctorsImpactMedicalHealth CareAbortionParenthoodJudgedDelayProceduresIn-lawsStigmaPlanned ParenthoodReproductive HealthMedical Procedures Author:Cecile Richards
“The question is, whether, like the Divine Child in the Temple, we are turning knowledge into wisdom, and whether, understanding more of the mysteries of life, we are feeling more of its sacred law; and whether, having left behind the priests and the scribes and the doctors and the fathers, we are about our Father's business, and becoming wise to God.” ChildrenFeelingsWisdomLawFatherLeftUnderstandingBehindsWiseMysteryDivineBecomingDoctorsSacredTemplesPriestsLeft BehindOur FatherMystery Of LifeScribesBecoming Wise Book:Sermons Preached at Brighton Source: Sermons Preached at Brighton
“I agree that marijuana laws are overdue for an overhaul. I also favor the medical use of marijuana -- if it's prescribed by a physician.

“I don't want to get married ...

“That so many of us find it entirely plausible that a vast network of researchers and health officials and doctors worldwide would willfully harm children for money is evidence of what capitalism is really taking from us. Capitalism has already impoverished the working people who generate wealth for others. And capitalism has already impoverished us culturally, robbing unmarketable art of its value. But when we begin to see the pressures of capitalism as innate laws of human motivation, when we begin to believe that everyone is owned, then we are truly impoverished.” PeopleBelieveHumansChildrenArtLawMotivationValuesWealthEvidenceCapitalismDoctorsPressureHarmOfficialsInnateResearchersPlausibleRobbing Author:Eula Biss
