This raises an interesting point in general in any area where consciousness is taking more control over things that have always been subject to unconscious nature.
In this case, when natural conception results in deformity, genetic illness, or just generally unfit offspring, there's no one to blame. I suppose you can get mad at God, but we have yet to figure out how to sue them.
But when human actors start making choices that nature previously made, suddenly, we have someone concrete to blame when things go wrong, even if things go wrong much less often and less severely.
- kfprt 5y ago> I suppose you can get mad at God Do you think God has sovereign immunity?
- anonporridge 5y agoNo. It's just super hard to subpoena someone who doesn't exist.

That is actually a plot of a Bollywood film "OMG: Oh my God" where after an earthquake demolished the protagonist's shop and denied insurance payment due an "Act of God" clause, he sues God in court.
