All of those are self-induced, unlike someone harvesting your organs such as the example story that the other commenter posted. Additionally, I tend to think that doctors do not serve our best interest and instead typically follow common or outdated practices. re: newborn circumcision, which I see as one of the most heinous acts that we still perform in the United States and allow in Europe because of ‘religious tolerance’ I can anticipate being called an antivaxxer, so I want to answer that as well. I’m not an antivaxxer by any means, but I also don’t think pumping your child with at least 7 doses of pathogens before they’re 6 months out isn’t a good thing either. I’d prefer to wait until they’re a bit older or to have longer wait times between each shot. I think this is something that also doesn’t get enough discourse because we hail doctors as all-knowing rather than viewing them with the same skepticism as other fields. Just as a side note, those who score highest on graduate exams such as the GRE are the physicists and mathematicians. Doctors are quite low. It may suggest something about their innate ability, yet we still lionize them.
