2. beliefs
even in the united states, where religion still enjoys perhaps the greatest popularity, nearly three out of four persons polled said that it is losing influence.

one of the reasons is that people are disturbed by what is happening in their churches.

an excellent article with refreshingly cogent comments posted on the right side of the page.. .

what are the proper limits of religious freedom?

marianne thieme, leader of the party for the animals in the netherlands, offers this answer: religious freedom stops where human or animal suffering begins.. the party for the animals, the only animal-rights party to be represented in a national parliament, has proposed a law requiring that all animals be stunned before slaughter.

Law School/Medical School Reading Book on Genetics and Jehovah's Witnesses

the book is recommended reading in my bioethics law class.

this is a law/medicine class that combines students from the school of medicine, the school of public health, and the school of law, so a broad cross-section of people will base their opinions of jws on this book.

my fellow students include a working neonatologist, a japanese health department employee, a chinese gentleman who works for some chinese gov't agency, a north african lawyer, an australian international health care worker, an undergrad ethics professor from a different, but local, university, and a social worker who is a fellow at a local pediatric bioethics foundation.
