Growing opposition to traditional Church teaching-particularly with regard to issues of human sexuality and end-of-life care-threaten faithful Catholic clinicians with a form of \"white martyrdom,\" characterized by loss of professional standing. Threats to rights of conscience come from various segments of contemporary society, including professional medical societies and publications that increasingly resemble strident activists rather than dispassionate and measured consensus-builders. Reflection on the relationship between counter-culturalism and joy can be a source of strength for those Catholic physicians facing opposition based on their adherence to the faith in their practice. A review of the historical developments of Christian medicine highlights its counter-cultural stance in contrast to the ancient Greco-Roman traditions that preceded it. Counter-cultural figures such as Ss. Cosmas and Damian, St Basil, and St Philip Neri serve as examples of courageous Christian counter-cultural witnesses in their times. Additionally, St Philip Neri's cheerful ministry in Rome also exemplifies Christian joy as a means of evangelizing in the midst of a culture in decline (as was the Eternal City in the 16th century). The lives of saints who suffered for the Faith remind us that being counter-cultural has consequences. While being called to \"speak the truth in love\" (Ephesians 4:15), Catholic medical professionals are to show compassion in words and actions as the singular signs of a faithful Christian.</p>","PeriodicalId":44238,"journal":{"name":"Linacre Quarterly","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10009139/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9475764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indeed, a thorough review of available ancient evidence from literature, artwork, graffiti, and modern archeology and re-enactment studies reveals no evidence in favor of suffocation and much evidence against suffocation as the cause of death in typically-portrayed crucifixions, and particularly for the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
