I’d say almost as bad as being a Catholic (especially during the sex scandal … holy Jesus). Apparently they no longer really care about their patients. They are a bunch of greedy Mr. Krabs. They have abandoned psychotherapy, only to pass out samples of the latest drug so that they can get their free lunch from big Pharma. (My sister used to make them … they’re quite good!) And then along comes one of my favorite psychiatrists, Ronald Pies, M.D., to set the story straight. In a World of Psychology post earlier this week, he dissects the front-page article in the March 6 issue of The New York Times. Pies cites some statistics that, yes, indicate there is less psychotherapy today performed in psychiat...

Either those taxpayer dollars will fund abortions, or the restrictions necessary to prevent taxpayer funding will curtail access to private abortion coverage. There is no middle ground. Thus both sides’ fears are justified. Both sides of the abortion debate are learning why government should not subsidize health care. Tip of the hat to President Obama for creating this teachable moment. Meanwhile, Catholics should be outraged at the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (to which my grandfather served as counsel). Yes, the USCCB helped prevent taxpayer funding of abortions in the H...

My pschobabble pal would tell me that I over analyse these things, which is probably the very sad truth of the matter. So many thoughts, strategies and questions run through my own mind that I’m usually paralyzed into temporary silence.“Oh look mom! There’s those guys again.”“Oh yes.”“The guys that were hitting on those girls in the sports car last week.”“I think it was the other way around actually.”“Really.”“Yes, remember the girls pulled the car into the curb when they saw the guys.”“Nearly ran us over!”“Hmm. Nearly ran them over more like.”“Why would anyone want to run those guys down?”“I think they were just trying to frighten them.”�...

The demagoguery of the Roman Catholic leaders or the intransigence of Gordon Brown.If the survey in today’s Times is correct over 60% of the population support the government’s embryo research proposals. Current legislation on embryo research is nearly twenty years old and, for that reason alone, needs redrafting. I would not pretend it is an easy area ethically and, where ever the line is drawn, its impact will have a degree of arbitrariness leaving a handful of people on either side of the line unhappy. The line still needs to be drawn.There are many devout Roman Catholics, including some eminent politicians, who cannot in conscience support this legislation and their rights to dissent must be respected. But, as so often with the Catholi... NHS Blog Doctor blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1322335 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 10:49:00 +0100 1322335
