Medicine - its limits
Over the past century, science and technology and, therefore, medical science and technology have made immense progress. But however much they have progressed, if humans are not reasonable, if they do not respect certain laws, one way or another they will become ill, suffer and make others suffer. How many people, even among believers, have been filled with indignation at the cruelty of the Old Testament God, who is said to punish not only those who have transgressed the laws but also four generations of their descendants! Well, this God is no other than nature. For nature is not outside of God, not separate from God. God is a father, but he is also a strict mother, who sets her children limits they should not exceed. If they do, we say that nature punishes them, but that is not really the case; by transgressing the laws, they have left the enclosed space where they were sheltered and protected, thus creating bad conditions for themselves, as well as for all those who depend on them. And even if medicine has made huge progress, it is powerless when it comes to those who persist in transgressing the laws.
