Conscience (with a few conditions)
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, ever sensitive to claims of conscience by pro-life physicians, has emphasized the duty of all physicians to ensure that patients have access to an abortion provider:
Providers with moral or religious objections should either practice in proximity to individuals who do not share their views or ensure that referral processes are in place so that patients have access to the service that the physician does not wish to provide.
Sure, we respect your claim of conscience -- as long as you exercise it while waving a referral slip and standing in the parking lot of a Planned Parenthood clinic.
