The doctor told her that because she was unwed, they didn’t feel comfortable treating her because it went against their “Christian values.”
There's no hate quite like Christian love.
Interesting. 12h ago, you could find this by searching for it ... https://www.amazon.com/There-Hate-Christian-Love-T-Shirt/dp/B0DZT5FBFN
Guess they changed the algorithm.
"Pro-life" asshole won't care for an unborn baby because its mother is unwed. As if there were any more proof needed that being "pro-life" is really just an excuse to be a judgemental prick, this most certainly provides the final nail in the coffin against the idea that there's any other real reason for it.
These assholes need to meet their "God." NOW.
On one hand. People in rural areas don't have a lot of options for doctors.
On the other, you don't really want care from a doctor who doesn't think you should be getting it, and has to be forced.
And so the doctor should lose the license and be prosecuted.
Which might leave an area without any doctor at all.
Good. Let them drown in their medical (edit: school) debt.
If there were consequences for refusing care, then fewer hateful bigots would apply, and more of the highly competitive spots in medical training programs would go to better prospective doctors.
There can be no tolerance for intolerance in a just society.
Who's drowning in medical debt? The patients that'll die on their 4+ hour drive to the nearest doctor, because you took away their bigot of a doctor without having a replacement? How many deaths would be acceptable sacrifices to get rid of one bigot? Seriously what would the number be?
Or do you mean medical school debt? I hope you mean medical school debt.
Obviously the least damaging option, would be keeping the bigot in place until someone else can step into the role.
I meant medical school debt, yeah. I forget medical debt is a thing, as a non-American.
