She saved her own life. It makes me sad to see people not give themselves credit. Jesus didn't do anything. He can't do anything. If he existed at all, he's dead now. He was an insane preacher with a few fairly obvious nuggets of morality, tangled up with nonsense, bad advice and actual cruelty. Take the good parts. You don't need to be all or nothing, with anyone. It's pointless. You don't need to worship someone either, just to take their advice.
Anyhow. I wish people would see that they've done it themselves. The belief in Jesus has been an emotional support. I do get that. But that's all it is. Nothing magical has happened. It's what people do that makes a difference, on their own and for each other. All the benefits of religion can be easily explained in non-miraculous ways. There's an awful lot of baggage that comes with religious adherence, which is totally useless.
