As I said, I BLAME BOTH. I blame the woman for being stupid enough to let her child starve to death. She should certainly go to jail. I also blame her religion for injecting fucked up beliefs into her head that made her think she was doing the right thing. Obviously, we can't put the religion on trial because ultimately a person is responsible for their own actions. In this instance, I consider the religion to be the equivalent of an unindicted coconspirator.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
