I do not see a problem with Yale's policy, given that they are educating future medical professionals:
"... ob/gyn residents do not have to participate in any abortions if they sign a paper that states they believe abortion is against their 'personal/religious' beliefs. However, residents cannot opt of learning the theoretical applications of the program, including techniques related to still-birth, miscarriage, and complications related to abortion. Students also cannot opt out of performing ultrasounds on women intending to have abortions."
The items in bold seem pretty important to know about.
Agreed. That was my first inclination...
It would seem to me that these have ALWAYS been part of an OB/GYNs training, and I doubt that this was Planned Parenthood's reason for pushing this new program. The intent is clearly to train future abortionists.
And would be taught any any residency program. PP's involvement is political. Very, very few doctors will perform abortions and the pro-abortion lobby sees this as a real threat, so they have made a concerted effort across the country to force doctors to perform them.
Sure, but I would hope that all ob/gyn programs are already providing the essential training without involving propagandists from Planned Parenthood. This sounds to me like a way to get PP into the midst of Yale's ob/gyn training program - surely Yale Med School is fully capable of training quality ob/gyns without the help of PP????
