No. There is a third possibility. The AMTA standard is fine. The societal conditions under which he and others are expected to offer services are not conducive to meeting the standards. He has also qualified his position through impirical evidence and so has grounds for proclaiming it an issue of conscience. Issue of conscience: Let me make a stab to start that off. An issue of conscience should be founded upon some genuine grounds of not wanting to cause harm to self and others, or to do good for self and others. The person must be able to define the faculty (issue of conscience) that enjoins the circumstance with his/her grounds. Evidence should be available that support this position of conscience for this particular individual. It must be supported by ones outlook on a variety of circumstances and it must have been displayed and persisted for a significant amount of time. In the event that some life changing experience has brought about this issue of conscience, it should be supported by authenticating evidence.
