This is Amber Thurman based in USA. She died of sepsis as she was denied life saving abortion care. Many women have died, many face misery. Imagine having all the modern technology and means to save life but still they are not able to do anything as patient die. This is not about USA alone, though it is shocking since they deem themselves as 'developed', across the world vulnerable people/women face brutalities of religion (more than a decade back I recall writing about Savita Halappanavar in Ireland who died of sepsis under similar circumstance https://depalan.blogspot.com/2012/11/prolife-is-about-celebrating-life.html). Imagine the situation in poor societies where religion (Christianity in this case) creates horrible conditions of avoidable deaths and avoidable births. This is heinous and such medieval understanding has no space in civilized world.
Pope Francis must answer. He is an influential figure and as the religious head cannot shirk responsibility. He is also responsible for these deaths and misery by nurturing this brutal crude ecosystem in the garb of religion. When critically scrutinized he is very much criminally liable. He must also explain what is lesser evil?
