If they want to die for their religious freedom, I have no problems. Just let their damned kids have some living time.

I hate the way these idiots justify letting kids suffer and die.
Dying to live, living to die.

Maybe I can't remove my brain from this whole thing (which evidently is required), but I wonder how many of these kids that are old enough know they're dying are wondering how to emancipate themselves so they can, you know, not die?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

If someone really is prepared to murder their kid, can we please label them mentally ill? Whether it's technically the case or not, what's the difference? Fuck me. Religion is socially acceptable delusion.

And if they want to be absolved of that label, they can just produce the god they think exists, and the problem is solved. But they can't pretend that they're in some special category where "conspires to allow a child to die at the behest of an invisible entity" isn't a symptom of mental illness.

The fact that retard politicians get elected in the first place just shows how many dummies there are in the world who vote them into office. It seems that a sizable number of people have IQs of less than 40.

This shit literally makes me sick to my stomach. Sometimes I really wish I believed in hell. It would be full of these fucktards.
I reject your reality and substitute my own!
