Baylor is absolute trash as a provider of medicine, at least where hipaa standards are concerned. When I moved to Dallas for a job, the two big providers in the area were UTSW and Baylor. I made an appointment with a Baylor internal medicine office. My appointment was at 8am, and the weather was expected to be abysmal, so I left at 7am. They called me while I was riding over to cancel the appointment, but I didn't get it cause I don't fuck with my cell phone when I'm cycling for my life. I got to the office and everything is unlocked. Office door, door to patient records room, doors to exam rooms, and supply closets with all sorts of goodies. Eventually, when no one showed up to the office, I checked my phone and got the message. The fact that everything was left unsecured was a massive HIPAA violation. I left a sheet of paper in each unsecured drawer stating that this was a hipaa violation with my contact info and would be reported. When they called me to reschedule, they tried to treat me like a fucking VIP, and were like, we can get you in tomorrow, despite waiting for nearly a year for the appointment they canceled. I was like, why would I want to be seen by doctors who have staff that can't do basic shit like secure their records?

Community Rules
- No bigotry or oppressive rhetoric.
All misogyny, racism, antisemitism, LGBTQ+phobia, etc. will result in removal and a permanent ban. This includes commenting that LGBTQ¢+ love or relationships are sinful. Be aware that using “Pharisee” as a negative slur is considered anti-Semitic.
1b. Side B folks are welcome, but follow Rule 1. If you are a Side B Christian, please respect Rule 1 above, but know that you belong here and we want you to participate.
- Do not promote oppressive/harmful ideology.
This includes all attempts to promote or normalise hate, shame, or fear within Christianity (e.g. purity culture, scaremongering against gender-transitioning, “complementarianism’”, or “demonic” attacks).
- No sectarianism.
Legitimate criticism of other Christians/Faiths is allowed but refrain from prejudice against entire denominations/groups, and against other religions (e.g. Islamophobia).
- No disparaging Christianity
This is primarily a supportive space for anyone who identifies as Christian. While everyone is welcome to participate we ask that no one disparages Christianity.
- Be respectful and polite.
No personal attacks or accusations, harassment, misrepresentation of others, or insults. This also includes forcing debate, gatekeeping, and denying the validity of another's faith.
- Don't be a Troll, or a Jerk.
Don't concern Troll, play Devil's Advocate, or pretend to be confused when you really just want to start a debate. This Rule will be interpreted at the moderators’ discretion.
- No spamming or proselytizing
Don't post here if you're mass posting to other Communities. Don't post here for self-promotion unless it's particularly relevant to this subreddit. This is not your soapbox, and we are not here for you to preach at us. If you want to promote your media please ask permission from the mods.
- Be sensitive about linking to triggering content.
Because we want this space to be as safe as possible, we discourage posting images or links to oppressive rhetoric from others. However, we do understand that venting is important sometimes. If you must post something potentially triggering, mark it nsfw or use spoiler tags, and censor any identifying information.
- Discussion of the ongoing israeli-Palestinian conflict is temporarily prohibited.
This topic has proven to be too divisive to discuss without consistently violating this Community’s rules. In order to maintain peace and to continue supporting one another, content regarding the ongoing Israel-Palestinian conflict is not permitted at this time.
Notice:
OpenChristian is inclusive, open and welcoming of all. We are LGBTQ+ affirming, but we welcome any who have chosen celibacy, as long as you respect Rule 1.
Do not post or comment about how you believe homosexuality is a sin.
We have heard this a thousand times, and you have nothing new to contribute to the conversation.
If you do this, you will be banned.
Please note that as a progressive Christian community, we are explicitly followers of Christ, as well as LGBTQ+ affirming and egalitarian.
Friends are very welcome to participate, no matter what you believe.
But this is not the place for questioning or debating these positions.
Oh my, that is a huge problem! I can't say I blame you!
Does this really surprise anyone? It's Baylor. They may be among the more "level headed" Baptist colleges but they are still most definitely non-affirming.
I feel like addressing some of what is very Anti-Christ modern church teachings but right now between work projects and home repairs and pet obligations, I simply don't have the time.
