It shouldn't just be Catholic doctors. Any doctor with philosophical...or medical...reservations should be able to refuse.

A hospital or doctor should not have to use religion to legally refuse any “trans” process or procedure. It should legally be a matter of your conscience, religious based or not.

This is actually a bad decision, making objection to affirming a delusion a matter of religious observance, and by implication saying, “OK, OK Catholics. Fine. But if you object on the grounds of being in touch with reality, you are SOL.”

I’m so old I remember the Dims saying if we allow the gay “marriage” thing not to worry — they won’t try to force the rest of us to participate or applaud that much.
