Yes, hospital visits ARE expensive, and most births are routine. Based on what I understand, this one clearly wasn't, and rather then call a hospital, he just outright risked his wife's life, along with making negligible choices that killed his baby.


Thats the only reason I called it demonic, but the technicality of terminology is an issue.
this all seems to deny, to me, that the life was in God's hands. I'm not against hospitals--in other countries, where they are not abused--just what they have become here.

Yeah, I understand. I think in the end God works things out. Though I don't pretend to know the details of it all. I do support free will. I just don't believe in this day and age a woman should be forced to endure torturous agony if the means are available to prevent it.

Under no circumstances is it considered acceptable for men to lie at home writhing in pain.

Our medical ins.system is indeed broken.

But I also believe medicine is in Gods hands. I have a sneaking suspicion that id one of the reasons AIDS isn't cured after all these years.
