God Just Plain Messed Up When He Supposedly Designed Us [View all]
BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) Colombian authorities said Tuesday that they've been frustrated in their attempts to file criminal charges against the young father of a baby born two weeks ago to a 10-year-old ethnic Wayuu girl.
That's because the Wayuu people have their own justice system and rarely cooperate with agents of the Colombian state in such matters, said Maria Gladys Pabon, chief prosecutor in Riohacha, the regional capital.

The girl, who cannot be identified by law, gave birth on March 29 via Caesarean section and is one of the youngest mothers on record.

The world's youngest mother in a medically documented case was Lina Medina of Peru, who in 1939 produced an infant at the age of 5 years, 8 months, according to the Guinness Book of Records.
I'm sorry, but tell me how this could possibly be by design? A 5-year-old capable of producing a baby? A fetus won't even fit through the pelvis at that age! Short of performing surgery to remove the baby, its a death sentence for both the fetus and the mother, as I'm sure it was many times in our distant past, before modern medicine made such success stories possible.
What kind of sick freak would design his own creations to be capable of such things?
Surely God didn't think this procreation thing through very well...

I tend to believe the "flaw" is in the nature of man, rather than the biology.

If our biology was better, a lot of flaws "in the nature of man" wouldn't matter

God didn't screw up, the human race screwd up, on their own. Not fair to point fingers.

Something in a screwed up DNA. Parents pass on to their children many anomalies. Humans

That's a good argument if one believes that god actually saves or heals the sick.
