Catholic Medical Ethics and Our Need to be Authentic Witnesses to the Sanctity of Human Life

• The Pa Catholic Conference rhetorically asks " Should Doctors Be Neutral on Suicide?", asking us to urge the AMA to "Remain Opposed to Doctor Prescribed Suicide."

• We need to be authentic witness to the sanctity of human life proclaimed by Catholic medical ethics.  Yet February 2017 looks at our Catholic hospitals revealed a paucity of nfp-only obgyns and privileges for ivf specialists and associates of a practitioner involved with the glibly called ''fetal reduction.''   In addition, Holy Redeemer's ''Making Your Own Health Care Decisions'' fails to specify that immoral advance directives cannot be honored, while Saint Mary's ''Advanced Directives and Living Wills'' fails to specify teaching on nutrition and hydration. 
  
  Ads for providers of contraceptives should have no place in ''Catholic'' media, including parish bulletins - ESPECIALLY BECAUSE SOME PRODUCTS SOLD AS ''CONTRACEPTIVES'' CAN ACT AS ''ABORTIFACIENTS''! (Is this happening due to inadequate notions about ''cooperation''?) 
  
  Any use of so-called emergency ''contraception'' in Catholic hospitals should cease, because of the danger of abortion.
