[QUOTE="FireDragon76, post: 77535252, member: 330042"] Surgeon General Vivek Murthy discusses the epidemic of loneliness in the US, and it's impacts on health. [MEDIA=youtube]rTB-DsJSVx4[/MEDIA] This is the first time I've really listened to Vivek Murthy. I am impressed by the holistic vision he brings. We haven't had a surgeon general like him, since perhaps C. Everett Koop. There's alot he's talking about, that also spans usual partisan divides, and touches on values that are common to many different kinds of Americans, regardless of religious or ethnic backgrounds. It's also interesting that it takes a non-Christian in the US, and a member of a religious minority that is unfamiliar to most, to discuss the real value of religious communities and religious values as a social good, in such a clear way. For too long, religion has been politicized in the US, causing alot of younger people to discount it, despite the benefits to health from religious participation, which are not always straightforwardly obvious.
