Then who is responsible for all of the other deaths if medical errors only account for 0.074% annually of the USA population. The number of people of the total population who are presently dying each year is around 1% such that, if my math is correct, then medical errors only account for around 7.4% of those who die each year.

It seems to me that the statistics is being exaggerated and that there needs to be a level of acceptance that all people are not perfect in their jobs and that they do their jobs to the best of their ability.

"Medical errors claim over 250,000 American lives annually" bothers me a lot. I know people who have been killed or severely injured.​

Do you make mistakes in the job that you do? Do the mistakes that you make in your job have serious consequences? If doctors are human like the people in the community, can we expect to hold them to a higher standard that we do not apply to ourselves for the mistakes that we may make occasionally?

None of my mistakes killed anyone.

I believe that's about a MILLION lives in 4 years. Doesn't that deserve a HUGE investigation? Of course Big Scam Pharma wouldn't agree.

So, you do make mistakes, and you want others to accept them because, as you have said, your mistakes have not killed anyone yet, but can you guarantee that they will not kill someone in the future.

You are demanding that medical professionals act God like in their work such that they do not make any mistakes, yet your double standard excuses the mistakes that you make on a daily basis. Where is the Grace that God wants us show towards other people?

Yep

I never said any such thing!

We're talking MILLIONS of deaths. That doesn't bother you?

Where is the Grace that God wants us show towards other people?

Warning people about MILLIONS of deaths caused by medical errors is an example. MILLIONS is actually just a tip of the iceberg.

 

[Jay Ross]

We're talking MILLIONS of deaths. That doesn't bother you?

But the report is not talking about millions of medical mistakes, the report is only talking about two hundred and fifty thousand medical errors being made.

"Medical errors claim over 250,000 American lives annually"​

Four years would clearly be a MILLION or more deaths! Shall we mention decades? MILLIONS!

Why are you defending death causing medical errors??? Big Pharma would fight an investigation and win because they run the FDA also!

"Medical errors claim over 250,000 American lives annually".​

I guess that's a drop in the bucket according to your estimate of the billions that God claims......so why stress about the fatality of a 'few'
I think you need to be outraged and hold God to account according to your view of his love for burning billions upon billions....for ever

I'll let YOU try to hold God to account. Good luck!

On the bright side, that keeps U.S. malpractice attorneys gainfully employed.

I guess you think God is not accountable?
I am also persuaded you are resistant to understanding his incarnation, his sojourn, his murder and his resurrection.
It has not even occurred to you because of your overarching obsession with God eternally burning people that this is about the accountability and justification of God.

I drive a school bus. If I made a few occasional mistakes costing children's lives, how long do think my employment will remain secure?

To whom? lol

Who told you all that?

Your imagination is getting the better of you. My "obsession" is believing and defending God of the Bible. I don't want you or me to burn in Hell forever. Otherwise I would shut up and let you keep marching toward the "furnace of fire" that Jesus warned us about.

Dead ahead:
Matthew 13:49-50
49 So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come forth, separate the wicked from among the just,
50 and cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth."

Oh that's right, you said you don't believe Jesus of the Bible. But you will! Soon everybody will believe, now or in Hell!

 

[quietthinker]

To whom? lol

The Created Universe.....particularly the inhabitants of Earth where his character is so maligned by the Devil.

Who told you all that?

You did, your posts reveal it. They malign God at most every opportunity

How you understand the bible is where your error is. Your reading of the bible is as if what Jesus taught about his Father's character has missed your attention and you forget or deliberately ignore that prediction does not equal causation.
As an example, I can accurately predict that you'll be dead in a hundred years. This does not mean I caused your death.
......and what is more, you don't ask or refuse to ask any questions whose answers might bring you enlightenment.......so wake up from the magic spell you are enthralled by; yes, those blocked ears and a stubborn heart.

Who created the universe? I don't think you have a clue.

particularly the inhabitants of Earth where his character is so maligned by the Devil.

You don't believe Jesus but you believe in the "Devil"?????

YOU are the one who said Jesus is WRONG! not me.

Your opinions do not overrule Jesus, God of the Bible. All you have to offer anyone are unBiblical opinions. That's the 'road to Hell Fire'!

You have clearly rejected the Christian Bible! Want proof? Your Bible attacks are proof.
