Moral, religious and righteous indignation are the rhetorical tools of both the left and right. Today abortion and gay rights come to mind most often when I think of this societal evil. Agendas and morality get in the way of individual psychological therapy and cause additional pain to people who need help.
Abortion counsellors push their pro-life or leftie feminism on the people they are helping. People who are in pain and facing life and death decisions are pushed to the decision that suits the organization running the counselling service. After the abortion, attempts at psychological healing are similarly run by organizations with a agenda. Unfortunately, helping the patient is secondary to the agenda of the caregiver. This pisses me off. Organizations generally suck, and they especially suck when empathy and compassion are needed. Organizations cannot do this. Only people can.
