Corsaro said she was raised with the belief that God believes in each person's ability to make choices — including choices about one's body

Not all choices are equally good.
I wonder if Corsaro has ever heard of an informed conscience?
People are supposed to make their decisions using their informed consciences.

Of course the LORD GOD gives mankind a choice: He even states them in Deuteronomy 11:26-32 -

"See, I am setting before you today a BLESSING and a CURSE - the BLESSING if you OBEY the commands of the LORD your GOD that I am giving you today; the CURSE if you DISOBEY the commands of the LORD your GOD and turn from the way that I command you today by following other gods, which you have not known."

It's that simple, blessings or curses from the LORD. Obey or Disobey the LORD GOD. What could be simpler than that!
