Christus Medicus; Nathanson

Dear Colleagues, AAPLOG, as a prolife networking service, advertises for like-minded organizations. Here is material regarding a conference in the Detroit area on March 31 to April 2, 2011: In light of the ever increasing pressure on Hippocratic Physicians to abandon our commitments to life, some organizations are beginning to think about what a life-affirming health care system might look like. One of those organizations: Christus Medicus Foundation, is opening that discussion at their conference in Michigan. We are circulating this flyer from Christus Medicus Foundation to make you aware of the conference. Note: while AAPLOG has no formal affiliation with Christus Medicus Foundation, we applaud the beginning of the discussion of real health care reform that allows for the practice of Hippocratic Medicine. To see the flyer go to: http://www.christusmedicus.com/conference2011.html, and click on ‘Online” in the right hand column. A brochure with with complete information and registration will pop up. Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx We want to recognize the life and passing of a man who, after the example of the Apostle Paul, after a life change, went from killing his victims to giving all his energies to save them. Dr. Bernard Nathanson died this week. We mourn his passing. He was an AAPLOG member. We agree fully with the following tribute written by Americans United for Life: IN MEMORIAM: REMEMBERING DR. BERNARD NATHANSON AUL notes with sorrow that pro-life champion Dr. Bernard Nathanson passed away this week. A pivotal pro-life figure, Dr. Nathanson was once a leading abortionist who presided over 75,000 abortions and become a founding member of prominent pro-abortion organizations, but he later denounced his former colleagues and profession to embrace the pro-life cause and to work against the brutal abortion industry. Dr. Yoest (AUL President) noted: “Dr. Nathanson was a beacon of uncompromising truth into the horrifying reality of abortion. The courage and honesty of his seminal works, ‘Aborting America’ and ‘The Silent Scream,’ have brought America demonstrably closer to the day when Roe v. Wade is overturned and everyone is welcomed in life and protected in law. His work informs many of AUL’s efforts to expose the lies of abortion and the chilling depths to which pro-abortion advocates remain willing to stoop to realize their goals. “We are indebted to him and will strive to honor and advance his enormous legacy. But there is no doubt that his greatest legacy will be found in lives saved because he told the truth about abortion and about the lies of an industry employs in a brutal and ugly business.”
