Yes, I think the bottom line here is that, though we might choose to do something differently, this woman was well within her rights. She was not doing anything illegal or that went against her personal beliefs. I discussed something similar today with Tiberius. I am not anti-religious because it is well within a person's rights to be religious, provided that they do not infringe upon the rights of others. This woman has not infringed upon the rights of others or really hurt anyone. I cannot condemn her for choosing to handle her personal business in a way that she saw fit and did not hurt anyone else. I could certainly point out the differences between her choices and ones that I would make, but that would not make me a better person than she is. Her other children look happy and healthy and she looks like a loving mom. In many ways, I envy her ability to cope with the horrible situation presented to her, even if it is based on false beliefs. I also have to assume that the people who donated to whatever fundraisers she was having share her beliefs and that they did not pull the wool over anyone's eyes. Had she been conning people, I would think differently about it.
