This decision, if not overturned on appeal, effectively outlaws Christian ideas expressed by medical doctors as ‘wrong think’.In a recent provocative article, Psychiatrist Andrew Amos describes the parlous state of youth gender/trans medicine and argues that ‘gender’ doctors are not real doctorsProf Joanna Howe gathers over 40,000 signatures in a petition calling on the government to close a loophole that allows late-term abortions to recieve payments under the ‘Stillborn Parent Payment’ program. In our Covid in Review series, US HHS cancels mRNA funding and research, claiming mRNA vaccines are “not effective for upper respiratory infection, encourage viral mutations and prolong pandemics.” However, stating these facts in Australia may still lead to professional sanction by the Medical Board of Australia.
