A viewer asks: “Was it a divine miracle that I was guided one night to birth at home and not the hospital (a few weeks before my due date!), that I had a practically pain-free albeit intense 7-hour labor (compared to my previous 48-hour back labor with unimaginable pain)? What a divine win.” What can we tell her?

You were being given divine guidance to seek a more natural environment free from potential interference by manipulation of caregivers. We do not wish to tar everyone with a broad brush, but for those who are targeted, those around them, even in what should be a safe place, may be used as a source of difficulty, or worse, through manipulation. Much of the lethality of the medical system is a deliberate manipulation done to harm those cared for by causing medical error, oversights, and corrupted judgment in decision‑making, so your decision to have a home birth was quite fortuitous.
