No, only foolish doctors want single payer; the rest realize the obvious end game-- doctors becoming government slaves, completely dependent, poorly paid and with minimal decision-making capacity for themselves and their patients. The healthcare marketplace should be a FREE market with full price competition, like any other. "Insured everywhere for everything".... so naive. Look at Medicaid and Medicare--impossible to get good care with the former, and doctors dropping coverage for the latter. Good hospitals will become average hospitals; good doctors will become average doctors, because there won't be enough money to maintain high quality care.

Your arguments are invalid. You are incorrectly equating heroin to morphine. Heroin is both a stronger opioid and more short-acting, making it more addictive. Morphine and other opioids used for chronic medical conditions are not addictive in the same sense because the brain does not receive a pharmacologically intense pleasure signal, which is the basis of addiction. (They do cause physical dependence, which results effectively in addiction.)

You are clearly not aware of how the Bible "described things". It speaks extensively of knowledge and often teases the reader of 2000 years ago about the poor scientific understanding of those times. Generations of scientists were inspired by it to unravel God's mysteries. For today's cold-hearted scientists to reject that source of inspiration is a loss, not a gain.

I do think this is about the solitary aspects. Faith and prayer, in its true form, is personal and a very cognitive process, like solving a problem or writing. It involves the mind much more than social activities.

I am starting to distrust the Radeon brand. Look at their decrepit website—clearly AMD is under poor management. They are a near–penny stock and haven't even thought to improve their marketing image. I've always bought Radeon cards, but an idiot could see that the GPU market is ready for a landscape change.
