My brother is a doctor and a Christian. He was awarded doctor of the year for the second time - this year (in the USA). I am sure you will do well regardless of your belief.

It is truly a calling and we are blessed to have you accepting this responsibility. Your sacrifices are not lost with my knowledge of what it truly takes to become a doctor. It takes far beyond just a special person.

I would not ridicule any individual who would sacrifice so much for others.

Oh please. Medicine is hardly self-sacrifice, even if it is difficult. And any ridicule is not directed at the medical career, but at ideas that, if implemented across the profession, would have it stagnate. I suppose a general practioner has no requirement for understanding science, but research would come to a screeching halt without a guiding paradigm.
