Been advised the Utah state police are looking into the matter. Don't have much hope they'll do the right thing.

I have gotten the impression that, in custody battles, the woman basically has to be the worst human being on the planet for the father to get full custody. So I feel for the kids, being taken away by crazy mom.
Is Utah the state where parents can basically get away with criminal negligence, leading to a child's death, if it's religious reasons? Like, the kid is dying from a treatable illness, while the parents pray over them, and are not held accountable when the child actually dies.

Don't know about Utah, but I know she had a court order to not get near the kids in Missouri.

Church vs David Copperfield: "You demon! The power of Christ compels you!"
Video:
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"

Quote:Trump spiritual adviser Paula White prays against president's opponents, suggests they "operate in sorcery and witchcraft"
President Donald Trump's personal spiritual adviser, Paula White, launched a prayer effort alongside other evangelical Christian leaders on Tuesday, offering a prayer condemning the president's opponents, accusing them of being aligned with evil spirits and using sorcery.
"Lord, we ask you to deliver our president from any snare, any setup of the enemy, according to Ephesians 6:12. Any persons [or] entities that are aligned against the president will be exposed and dealt with and overturned by the superior blood of Jesus," she said during her prayer in a conference call with other Christian leaders.
"Whether it's the spirit of Leviathan, a spirit of Jezebel, Abaddon, whether it's the spirit of Belial, we come against the strongmen, especially Jezebel, that which would operate in sorcery and witchcraft, that which would operate in hidden things, veiled things, that which would operate in deception," she continued. "We come against it according to your word."

Prayer: how to feel good about yourself without actually helping anyone.

But in a 'witch hunt', the witches aren't the ones doing the hunting.
That being said, I should think that 'President Donald Trump's personal spiritual adviser' must be the easiest job on the fucking planet.
'Mr. President, I think you should be more spiritual.'
'No.'
'Ok. See you next week.'
