Yeh. that's what I said.

but the tests can drag on. you carry a baby around for 9 months. and then he makes it suffer for a bit longer after it's born. and then it eventually dies.

he says. exam over. you'll know the reult when you die.

Yes. he created the life. so yes he took it away.
and yes he threw in the pain and suffering.
