would that DWB be the same group that ran out of Afghanistan the minute that they heard the first gun shots? or would that be the group that gave out all the HIV vaccines in south Africa that actually made the ‘tester’ so much more likely to develop aids that they had to stop at once?
Great track records

I have to say ‘B’ because if I am well enough to refuse treatment on religious grounds (my religion holds no such restrictions) than I am well enough to say “I’m an American! Call some body now. I want to go home. Drop me off in Boston, take me to MGH, I’m all done.” If I am not well enough to say that, than the doctors will do what they feel to be in my best interest.

I’d always go with B.), they’re more likely to have current knowledge and act in a way that is benefitial to me, instead of to their personal beliefs.
Edit: I can trust that they won’t get a “sign” from God that my non-belief caused God to inflict me with whatever illness I may have anymore than Christians believe God inflicted them with headaches for thinking unpure thoughts.
