And, just like that, I'm banned from patient consults outside my office.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

One has battled with various addictions over the years and the other one quit smoking pot for the sake of keeping his job. I took the program seriously, I think because I grew up with an alcoholic father.

I had to run a couple errands this morning that took me to areas I wasn't familiar with. Along the way I had to look twice to make sure I was seeing things correctly. I passed by "Endtime Church". Couldn't help but ponder on just how uplifting that sounds. smh
