    They believe god may grant the fetus a reprieve at any moment. They believe in magic, ffs. What do you expect?

      Couldn’t god just make the abortion not work? Maybe give the doctor a heart attack, or make Jesus appear on the sonogram like he does on toast?

        I mean he could make a lot of things not work, but prefers to allow our fuck ups with random miracles mixed in. Apparently free will means letting us do bad shit.

          And that’s where the whole tri-omni approach starts to eat its own tail.

          I have a whole shtick about free will not being compatible with either a materialistic nor a tri-omni worldview. I simply do not believe it exists, nor is it possible.

        They think science is a religion. Manifestation of your will is what makes reality. So if they pray hard enough, it will have an effect. They think people who consider themselves scientists are just making it up and making it real because they believe it so much.

        I don’t see why they would doubt that. In my experience they tend to trust medical science but god is a super doc that might miracle someone in a bad spot.
