Scripturally speaking, homosexuality is wrong, and she is right in not having to accept their lifestyle, but when it comes to refusing treatment for the baby, I thought of Ezekiel 18:20 (relevant statements bolded for emphasis):
The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
Could this be a case where a baby is being punished for the mother's sin? What if the necessary care was life-saving? Did the doctor do the wrong thing here?
IMHO, I don't see how treating the baby has anything to do with approval/disapproval of the parents' lifestyle. I believe that homosexuality is sinful and I don't agree with their lifestyle, but should their baby be refused to be treated just because of the parents' sin?
