I can't argue with any punishment proposed for her.

My God.

The headline alone made me sick.

I know some, who cannot have a child, whom would be great parents, then we have these here who are given God's gift and they destroy it in a horrendous manner.

"What's the point of having a God if it can't stop something like that or it chooses not to?"

Free will + fallen nature = suffering

It was not God Who put evil into the world. We brought it in through our disobedience.

God is not a sugar daddy or the good fairy or santa claus. He permits us to choose between obedience and disobedience, between good and evil. Otherwise, we'd be nothing but puppets with no personal responsibility for anything we did. What would be the "point" of that?

Well since microwaves are a carcinogen, and enough continous exposure would cause cells to lyse(explode)(or in other words think of a toad in a microwave)..why would you want to attempt it?

I make no claim to really understanding the purposes of any death, particularly such a cruel and horrendous one. However, there is a little mentioned Bible verse that says that God is ultimately responsible for everything under creation (which corresponds to being a truly Omnipotent Being as I would understand it):

Isaiah 45:7 (King James Version) King James Version (KJV)

7 "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things."

I believe that we won't truly understand the reasons for everything until the next life. But I've never bought into the old "God just can't whup the Devil" bit. And I don't think the Bible supports it either. Just my opinion, for what it's worth.

[The night before the baby was taken to the hospital, Arnold and the child's father went out for a short time and left Paris with a baby sitter, Rion said. The mother didn't sense anything out of the ordinary until the next morning, when the child was found unconscious, Rion said]

A one month old baby that sleeps through the night? And nothing seemed out of the ordinary? The baby's organs were burned and it was found dead in it's crib? Is the defense going to be alien abduction?

[How can an omnibenevolent and omnipotent God allow a baby to be microwaved to death? What's the point of having a God if it can't stop something like that or it chooses not to? Holy sh!t.] I didn't see the tag. This comment will hijack the thread, I bet.

I'm not sure about the death penalty in God's eyes since it is his job to give and take life but this woman does not deserve to live.

Agreed. And still, God has endowed us with conscience and holds us responsible for our choices. Either we obey Him or we disobey. It's up to us.

So the babysitter was cleared? And the dad? What evidence do they have that the mother is the one who did this sick twisted act?

Do you mean fetus in 8th month or 8 month old baby?

Arbitrary != Illogical.

"I'm not sure about the death penalty in God's eyes since it is his job to give and take life..."

In Gen 9:6, God delegates that job to us specifically for the crime of murder. That covenant extends for all the generations on earth for as long as we exist. See also Rom 13:4.

Local news report video is here.

Police say they have been pursuing this case without let-up since last summer, so it's not a cold case. The police also say they've developed new evidence in the past month that led to the arrest of Arnold. Just a guess, but I don't think they're planning to present that evidence until trial.

You can`t kill a cockroach in a microwave. I should know, I was cooking a TV dinner in a microwave a month ago and after about 6 minutes I opened it up and a cockroach ran out, ewwwwww! This thing took 6 minutes of a microwave on full power and it didn`t even flinch.

Remove the microwave meal and repeat process. Dead Bug if it ventures anywhere towards the center of the microwave.
