Another baby from religious couple bites the dust:
Faith-healing couple who prayed and rubbed oil on the head of their sickly newborn instead of calling 911 WILL go to prison for letting him die
Dale and Shannon Hickman were found guilty of manslaughter in 2011
They were members of a controversial faith-healing church in Oregon
Their son David was born two months premature in 2009
He died hours after a home birth when couple refused to go to hospital
Their conviction was upheld last week by the state's Supreme Court
They will serve six years each in prison

And when you think about it are they really to blame? They just acted as they were thought by their parents and teachers. Even today when religious people get healed in hospitals they don't thank the doctors but God and think that Jesus healed them, never thinking why fucking Jesus gave them illness in the 1st place. For instance in Europe there are still on many places monuments to plague featuring beings from Christian mythologies, because people think that God decided to spare that part of town and still stop to cross themselves - despite the fact that medicine and science stopped the plague that would pop up every few decades until the invention of antibiotics.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
