RICKS* This paper's discussion dispenses with the traditional academic refusal to commit in matters of faith. In fact, my religious faith, explained here by reference to scripture' and spiritual experience, to a large degree produces the political commitment I feel with respect to abortion. To write from reason alone and hide my faith would be disingenuous. Moreover, as should be plain to anyone familiar with 2 the legal disputes over abortion, reason alone persuades neither side. Nor has it persuaded me. So, though others have reasoned to conclusions similar to mine, my ultimate understanding does not rest solely on such reasoning. A caveat is in order. I do not speak for the church of which I am a member, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

  • Dialogue V18N02 42.Pdf
    ill Ethical Issues in Reproductive Medicine: A Mormon Perspective Lester E. Bush his presentation is not "the" Mormon perspective but the point of view of "a" Mormon. "The" Mormon point of view, at this moment, does not exist on the subjects under discussion. Certainly many Mormons hold strong views on these subjects, and some argue their views reflect those of the Church.1 Rather, I mean that if one were to write, as I did, and ask the First Presidency —• which is solely entrusted with the authority to establish official Mormon Church policy — if it has "a position, or a doctrine . relating to the subject" of any of the four medical processes this symposium addresses, one would receive an answer stating that the Church has not "taken an official position with respect to the issues raised by the scenarios." If, mildly surprised that this should be so despite the explicit or implicit overtones of abortion in two of the four scenarios, one writes again, highlighting this problem, he or she will be referred without elaboration to the "current official policy of the Church with respect to [abortion]" and advised that "the scenarios . should be viewed in light of this policy" (Gibbons 1982, 1983). LESTER BUSH, a physician and former associate editor of DIALOGUE is completing a monograph, "Health and Medicine in the Mormon Tradition" as part of a multi-volume series sponsored by Lutheran General Hospital's Project Ten. Ultimately about a dozen faiths will be represented in the series which is being assembled under the general editorship of Martin E.

    Media Kit © 2020 Contents Author Bio About the Book Book Excerpt Product Details Interview Questions Connect with Us Author Bio Paul Gerald grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, and still has an NASL Memphis Rogues pennant somewhere. He had a very brief career as a decent goalkeeper until around the age of fifteen, at which point his strong tendency toward laziness kicked in and he decided to write about sports instead of playing them. When he got to Southern Methodist University, he started writing in sports for the student newspaper. He eventually had jobs at the Dallas Times Herald, the Memphis Commercial Appeal, and the Memphis Flyer before fleeing the southern summers for Portland, Oregon in 1996. Since then, he has written sports, travel, and outdoors articles for publications all over the country and is the author of five guidebooks for Menasha Ridge Press, including Portland’s best-selling hiking guide, 60 Hikes within 60 Miles: Portland. He has guided hiking trips in Oregon, California, Colorado, Italy, and Nepal. Along the way, since writing never really pays the bills, he has also worked for nonprofits, restaurants, tour companies, an insurance company, Radio Cab Company in Portland, and on Alaskan fishing boats. And that’s just what he can remember. Since his first English soccer game in 2011, he has seen more than 100 a hundred contests at more than 60 sixty different grounds. Back at home, he’s a Portland Timbers season ticket holder and a dues-paying member of the Timbers Army; he hates nothing in life more than the last ten minutes of a game when the green and gold are ahead by one goal.
