No abortion allowed, woman dies

[Canuck_2]

I am sure this is what some 'god' wanted.

after days of "agony" his wife had asked for an abortion.

He said she had repeated her request over three days but was told Ireland was a Catholic country and by law nothing could be done because of the presence of a foetal hearbeat.

"Savita [a Hindu] said: 'I am neither Irish nor Catholic' but they said there was nothing they could do," the newspaper quoted him as saying.

The foetus was removed once its heartbeat had stopped and Savita later died in intensive care on October 28.

And you will note she was not even a Catholic but died because of a 'Catholic belief'.

Medical wisdom would have saved her life in other countries without the religious dictates.

I certain there's never been a woman who died from complications from an abortion, so I won't even bother to google it to look it up!

You should look it up but we know one thing for certain--for lack of an abortion, a woman died.  Now blow that out your ass!

Without their stupid god there would be no one to blame for everyone.  Some nut on here after the election tried to say it was god's will!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those nutter's are still out there.

No one had the right to deny this woman the care she needed to live.

And to those posting the same thing could have happened in your country as women in that situation have been refused proper care for the same reasson but they were able to leave that hospital and travel to another hospital that would treat them.

All the time their condition was deteriorating and they were losing blood and in agony.

'Beliefs' over reason and threatening a persons life because of their 'god' and how they interrpreted some old text.

Well Canuck, there are millions of little ones killed on an annual basis because of your beliefs. Is one life worth more than another.

One of your big arguments against Obama a few months ago was that no one had the right to force anyone to go against the Catholic church's beliefs on the birth control issue.  Make up your mind.

Glad you admit the vast majority of abortions is nothing more than birth control
