Yeah. if you want to pray by a hospital bed, while the doctors tend to your sick child, have at it. But take your child to the doctor!

It's Murder; Plain. Simple. I hope one day we can find a means to work around these lunatic faith healers and find some way to rescue these poor children from death.

Obviously the CPS needs work if this kind of thing is allowed anywhere. not to mention they need new judges. You should not be allowed to let your child die a slow death due to treatable conditions, and if people can't afford the medical costs then we need some universal healthcare.

Just read a recent article where a stupid JW woman died, along with her unborn child, because she refused hospital treatment she needed.

The one where the 16 year old kid died of a fucking UTI because his parents indoctrinated him into this cult of belief and he wouldn't get some antibiotics makes me so fucking mad.
My thoughts always go to those last moments. You are in worlds of pain, approaching heart failure, and you if you aren't calling bullshit, you really believe you didn't have enough faith and might be going to hell. Damn.
"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

No different than refusing vaccinations. Both need to be illegal.

She's a victim. the perpetrators are not the ones who die, unfortunately.

You don't need to put them in prison, just taking their kids away and sterilizing them is enough.
