The answer to the question is simply this, God ordains everything. His laws should not be broken for anything, the ends do NOT justify the means. Christ said, "What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?"
One of His laws is that we should not commit murder. It doesn't matter whether we think we're serving a higher cause or not, we should not do it! If God wills that the mother should live, then nothing the doctors say beforehand is going to kill her. And if He decides her time on earth is done, do you really think you can keep her here? I'm not saying this from a cold heart, as I was typing this I felt Him say "You can say this Andrew, but what if, some years from now, that is your wife hanging in the balance?" I admit that really really scares me, but I hope I would follow Him.
Are you a Christian? If you are what I'm going to post my carry some weight, if not you may as well just skip reading this.[b said:Quote[/b] ]
who is to say that one life is more important than the other? And if the mother has other children (or even if she doesn't), I think there is much more to be considered than how horrific it all looks.
