Opposing this law on religious grounds is precisely why it should be passed. If your religion forbids you, then don’t. But not a single thing should be denied the public by coercing people to submit to your religion

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

Effective #spiritualcare begins with the use of self as a disciplined instrument, informed by the behavioral sciences and shaped by reflective practice. Notice your emotional responses, body language, and assumptions in each encounter, these often communicate more than your words. 1/x #medsky

Today on Volts: I'm joined by the great @michaelhobbes.bsky.social to discuss "reactionary centrism," an intellectual tendency that's come to dominate US public life. You know the type: would never view themselves as conservative, yet finds voluntary pronoun use vastly more aggravating than fascism.

They should be asked as an additional question to explain how their interpretation of Romans 13 relates to Revelation 13 and for double bonus marks to comment on William Stringfellow's discussion of these passages. Asking Baptists to discuss an Episcopalian's theology I know is a stretch

Why are we contesting the out of context meaning of other people's mail from 2000 years ago? Both Moore and Mohler hold beliefs that violate basic human rights as the will of God. Both want to impose their religion on others as a condition of their "religious freedom". @daviddark.bsky.social

Hospital Chaplains are crucial partners and providers with psycho-spiritual first aid when things go bad for #medsky colleagues. Call them for a critical debrief, include them in goals of care meetings and rounds.

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it. They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

We need to stop pussyfooting around and/or being legalistic about this and say simply: it is good and right that our law prevents our government from sending men, women, and children abroad to be tortured and killed. The Human Rights Act should be the minimum framework of a humane immigration system
