Default What do you make of this

This mother of 2 newborns needed a blood transfusion but her religion said no and she died.....

The doctors even asked her husband if he could overrule it and he said no, she will have to die...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WTF........

Andrew, her husband is said to be distraught.......

What a pillock.............. Blood is all she needed and she would be alive to bring up her 2 children, how f***ing selfish.!!!!

Those kids now have no mum thanks to the familly not over rulling the view.

how could you sit there and watch your wife die, when all you needed to do was say, YES, give her some blood and she would be alive for the next 50 years....

He should be tried for manslaughter IMO, he was given the option of letting her live or die..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Even doctors dont have that right, Euthanasia is Illeagal in the Uk isnt it?

i dont agree with it, but, they live their life by a set of rules which they beleive and do not harm others in doing so so its the choice they make long before they are on the death bed

if thats what they believe then who are we to judge?
would the papers run storys judging and ridiculing the muslim faith and the choices they make?
we all know the answer to that.
i dont believe in anything myself but i have to admire her courage to knowingly condem herself to death rather than betray her beliefs.

maybe they have but we are no judges on how people should live their lives, it would have destroyed the family if she would have received the transfusion anyway

Insanity imo, people have different beliefs with different religions etc, each to there own, but surely as a human being you should protect and look after the people you love, not let them die because your religion has a certain rule,

From my observations and experience, religion caused more hurt in the world than individual comfort.
I think in years to come as sience gets to know more and can explain the universe and so on we will look back and think "what a bunch of idiots following a religion." Imo the only good thing it has given us is a moral code to follow.
However, It is every individuals right to believe in what they wish, so in this case we can only offer our own opinion.
It is a sad waste though.

Religion IS needed in our society though.

Your stranded in the middle of nowhere, you're losing blood, there's a plane circling above you trying to find you. If you don't surface within 3 minutes the plane will fly away and you will be deamed lost. You find you're stuck under a large branch and don't have the strength to move it. You also know if you don't move quick the local villagers will torture you and kill you.

Who you going to ask for help? I gaurantee anyone in our christian religion anyway, would ask for help from God.

Harsh and massive odds circumstance but it puts it into perspective.

On another note, I think that their religion in general is a load of shit.

but then do you change your true beliefs when it suits you? pick and mix religion. believe in the parts that suit you at any particular time.
i dont belive in anything as its all pointless imo.

Everyone has the right to be a dozy twat who completely fails to understand the meaning of "not taking anothers blood" in a bad english translation of the bible if they want.

She was so keen to exercise her right to be stupid and clueless that she gave up her life to do so, thats her choice I guess, but I feel very sorry for the twins who have been robbed of what no doubt would have been a devoted and caring mother if she could only read properly.

Fucking sums it up for me!

What a tool - there's having a strong belief on your religion and then there's taking it too far. I'm not a religious person, but I have been brought up with it my whole life, so I can understand it and I won't condem anyone who chooses to have a faith, but there's no point being fucking stupid about it!

Would you say the same about suicide bombers? They condem themselves to death because of their religious beliefs aswell....

taking it too far?

maybe jacking a plane or perhaps blowing up a bus is taking things too far, refusing a blood transfusion isnt imo.

a lot of people these days in this country live without religion because of the way the world is today. this woman wasnt brain washed and she would have been of sound mind( i hope) it was her decision and also she would have had the backing of her family.

agree with some of the bits above, especially about the translation issues
