Yeah, but how much of that is due to the intervention of modern medicine? They did say she had to have two C-sections, and she also had two sets of twins. If it weren't for modern medicine, 1) that woman would be dead by now, and 2) half of her children would have died before the age of 12.
I think this is where the liberals are losing the "war"...the bible-thumpers are out-procreating the liberals 19 to 2 or less...
