How Many People Die Earlier, Thanks To Religion?
Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010Medical research and slow … condoms sex education criticized by the church … vaccines banned by Islamic groups in Africa or the Catholic church … churches youth killed by witchcraft … African anti-AIDS slowed. .. life ruined by a birth at the wrong time … women who die for having an illegal abortion women stoned for adultery … when their only crime was to have been violated in a Muslim country … it will last how many time? With more research, my life expectancy would be longer. With less self-righteous believers, fewer people would be dead ones in pain. Fewer people would think that it is not a real birth mother, if not in the pain. Less than doctors and nurses would let people give birth in pain or dying patients. The pain would be a priority for longer. The use of drugs would be more rational rather than irrational START a reaction among many believers.
Are you personally affected by this problem? It's weird, but it is not my impression. And besides, why: "thanks …" ?
People also die later because of religious beliefs. In pain, because their relatives or their doctors do not want to disconnect earlier. I'll have ca m afraid if happens to see me go to pieces, day after day, losing my limbs, my intelligence, gradually or not. I hope to have enough lucidity until the end in order to kill me quickly on the end.
If I remember correctly, Pasteur, for example, inventor of the vaccine against rabies, was a Catholic (famous anecdote of the rosary). It is not the condom, which is criticized by the Church that practices sex outside marriage. In a faithful couple, AIDS should not be a problem. Those who die early are those who have had risky behavior or pay the consequences of the behavior of their partner / parent. Put the blame on the back of the church is the true bad faith (literally and figuratively). To my knowledge, no vaccine is banned by the Catholic Church, but I'm open to discuss the examples that you could give. Life ruined by a birth at the wrong time: you probably referring to the ban on abortion by the Catholic Church. I do not see how that leads people to die earlier. Instead, it is abortion that terminates each year to millions of innocent lives. Women who die from illegal abortions, these women wanted. Women who die from unsafe abortion: the women themselves voulaientelles kill their own child. If they had not taken this decision to kill, they also live forever. The Christian religion says: Thou shalt not kill. The pain is just one specialty hospitals where Christians Palliative care units are often at the cutting edge compared to those who practice euthanasia and therefore shorten the life of the people (remember sure at first you say it was the fault of religion if more people were dying, now it is the fault of religion if they die later, must know …).
No one dies sooner or later through religion or another. It's very convenient for the gurus or others to do or suggest I just nonsense to say so. Apart from statistics, someone has already proved the contrary? What happens when a person is born the hour of his death is already registered. Nothing will disturb the countdown clock Celestial
Let's see … 3000 New York, 10000 per year in Afghanistan since 20 years, 202 in Bali, … Damn! I have not enough digits on my calculator …
"How many people die earlier, thanks to religion?" As far as those who live for their religion + all victims who are preferably people who do not like them. … What makes always "too".
