My nonChristian patients appreciate my acceptance of the differing beliefs of others as well. This is the type of person I perceive Dr Collins to be–which is how MOST Christians are and how they treat others. Unfortunately, the left/nonChristian media don’t have this perception of us. They don’t understand how we can feel strongly about our faith yet most definitely respect the basic tenents of science.
