Tao Bible - 1 Samuel 1:5

But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the LORD had shut up her womb.
~ King James version ~

Tao neither blesses a woman with child nor shuts up her womb.
~ possible Taoist alternative ~
The operative point here is that God had caused Hannah to be unable to conceive.

Tao has no intent. Life unfolds according to the ways of nature. If a woman is unable to conceive a child it is not because nature is "against" her; Tao is against nothing.
