☆ Recruited to Play Sports, and Win a Culture War
  + stars: | 2024-01-31 | by ( Susan Dominus | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
She didn’t mind the church part, but she did mind that her coach wasn’t giving her any playing time. She was starting to think that she might as well drop out of college and start working her way toward her dream career as a real estate agent. That led her, last spring, to a conversation with a coach who was starting a softball team at a school on the Gulf Coast of Florida. The coach was a young woman, and Totten thought she sounded sane and real and caring. The school was small, but it was a public honors college for top students, which also appealed to her.

The Black Nazarene statue is paraded through downtown Manila. It is also called the Traslacion, or “transfer,” referring to the relocation of the Black Nazarene to Quiapo Church. In 1620, the first confraternity dedicated to the Black Nazarene was established. People watch the procession from their homes as the Black Nazarene statue passes by in Manila. About 3 million devotees took part in the last pre-pandemic Traslacion procession in 2020, which lasted some 16 hours, according to police.

☆ Pura Luka Vega: drag queen arrested after Jesus performance sparks backlash in the Philippines
  + stars: | 2023-10-06 | by ( Kathleen Magramo | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
The Philippines is a deeply Christian country and the Catholic Church maintains significant influence both in daily life and politics. Social media videos of drag queen Pura Luka Vega singing to a rock version of The Lord's Prayer while dressed as Jesus became a topic of debate in the Philippines. Multiple politicians, including senators, also went on Philippine television shows to criticize the drag artist’s performance, calling it blasphemous, disrespectful and offensive. ‘Denied my rights’The drag artist has previously apologized to those who “felt uncomfortable” about their performance. But Secillano stopped short of commenting whether the church viewed Pagente’s arrest as the right thing to do to defend the faith.

☆ Honoring the Body Donors Who Are a Medical Student’s ‘First Patient’
  + stars: | 2023-05-31 | by ( April Rubin | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Similar scenes played out across the country this spring as medical, dental and physical therapy students assembled to offer tributes to whole-body donors and their families. At the ceremonies, students perform music, light candles, read letters and share art. Sometimes a tree designation or an offering of flowers to a donor’s family is included. Even with the introduction of elaborate 3-D visualization software, dissection remains a cornerstone of a medical education for most first-year students, as it has for centuries. Students spend months methodically studying the structures of the body, including organs, tendons, veins and tissue.

☆ A former CVS nurse practitioner is suing the company after it fired her for refusing to prescribe birth control and Plan B for religious reasons

A former CVS employee in Texas is suing the company after it fired her for refusing to give out birth control. The suit claims the company granted her "religious accommodation" until it reversed the policy in August 2021. The suit claims CVS previously granted Strader religious accommodation so that she was not required to give out birth control at the MinuteClinic where she worked in Keller, Texas. Currently, six states — Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Mississippi, and South Dakota — allow pharmacists to refuse to dispense birth control pills or Plan B for religious reasons. Strader's suit follows similar legal action taken by CVS nurse practitioners in Virginia and Kansas, who also claim the company fired them for refusal to provide birth control to customers.
