"to unbelievable gains in medical technology in recent years however" if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Prove that Medicine is helping not hurting us!

(I don't know many folks today who could read The Canterbury Tales with help, either.) The Message is a beautiful, faithful expression of the Word of God, until the day we all have our own burning bush.
