re: Updates CMSA

Friends,
I know I meant to publish "Elementary Logic and the Beginning of Life" here. However, after DT rejected the piece, I decided I would do well to submit it to another Catholic publication. Plus, I was at Officer Training School for the U.S. Air Force the entire month of June. I have been quite busy lately. Sorry. At some point I'll put it up.

Also, good news! My "Seduction of Hippocrates" was accepted for publication with Touchstone.
I'll let you know when it's published. The essay looks at the Hippocratic Oath and the recent abandonment of its principles in modern medical education. It should be a good one. I am just overwhelmed at the opportunity to be published next to such luminaries as Robert Louis Wilken, David Hart, J. Budziszewski, Alan Jacobs, and others.

Finally, Our Sunday Visitor, expressed interest in my column "The Difference of Catholic Hospitals and the Difference It Makes." All in all, I am excited by these opportunities. I think being published in outstanding Catholic periodicals will really add credibility to our efforts here in Toledo to establish the "Catholic Medical Student Association" at the University of Toledo College of Medicine.

Please continue to pray for Catholic doctors and other health care professionals. Especially keep Catholic OB/GYN residents in your prayers; they're the ones who need it the most.

In Christ,

Patrick
