    I had a shitty doctor who wouldn’t give it for religious reasons.

    I’m sure it was just someone that has sexual hangups, but I like the idea of someone that is objects to it for an entirely different religious reason. They’re religiously opposed to treating cancer. They’re bizarrely, ideologically, obsessively pro-life, and they consider it a damnable offense to harm anything that has human DNA. A cancer is just another form of human being! They take the “every cell is sacred” idea quite literally!

    I can’t give you chemotherapy. That could hurt the cancer. And that’s a person!
