It's wise to be wary of the pill

(H/t to Jeanne for the link.) Read this article. It’s largely editorial, but with a foundation of research.

As Phillip Jenkins has written at length (even publishing a book with the title), anti-Catholicism is the last acceptable prejudice. Jenkins isn’t Catholic, by the way. It never ceases to amaze me how vitriolic people can become when a scientist, doctor or otherwise respected professional who is also Catholic and might have the audacity to declare themselves a Catholic professional is automatically a misogynist. Never mind the fact that many of the members of the Catholic Medical Association–including the US CMA President–are women who are strong advocates of women’s wellness, women’s rights and family issues.

This comes from what a sociologist friend calls “tribal liberalism,” people who tout their tolerance with their scepters of slander, which is on the other side of the river from the “cosmopolitan liberals,” people who lean left (even far left), but incorporate social relics like logic, reason, listening and common courtesy into their dialogues, sometimes (GASP!) siding with commonsense coming from more conservative folks.

Any cosmo liberals out there?Or for that matter, cosmo conservatives? Tell me about a positive experience with someone across the aisle, especially on family planning.
