I think it's fine to have babies that are going to die anyway- if you are going to let them die at home. I don't think it's fine to "let nature take its course" in an ICU. That's a contradiction in terms. If you want to be one with God, stay out of the hospital- since God has the power to save anyone he wants to in a hospital or out of one, right? And it the point is to die naturally, isn't it more natural out of the ICU?

Edit- I think the main point I've been making is that it is not ok to have poor women forced in to health care that does not put their health at the top of the agenda, but is actually driven by God at the top of the agenda. Now would you argue those women do not deserve to have normal health care? It's ok with me if they choose God centered health care, as long as they have another option- but it's not ok with me (as was argued here) that this sort of health care represents a meaningful "patch" on a system lacking good prenatal care for the poor.
