Catholic Citizens of Illinois reports:
In solidarity with the Catholic Medical Association and all people of good will, the Catholic Medical Students Association wishes to express its concern regarding the November 7, 2007 Opinion of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists’ Committee on Ethics, “The Limits of Conscientious Refusal in Reproductive Medicine.”
The CMSA concurs with the CMA’s judgment regarding the Opinion’s flawed ethical analysis and unworkable and discriminatory recommendations that would impose sanctions on Catholic and other physicians who are-out of desire for the authentic good of the patient-morally opposed to abortion, contraception, and certain artificial reproductive technologies, and further calls for the rescinding of ACOG Committee Opinion No. 385.
