Trials For Parents Who Chose Faith Over Medicine

If religious freedoms gave you the right to do whatever you desired, I shudder to think of what someone could get away with if they were just following the teachings of the bible to the letter.

Well said. I probably have nothing to add to that, except a parent that chooses faith over a life-and-death situation of their child deserves to suffer their child's death. They pretty much asked to mourn for their child's death when they decided they're denying the proper health care.

But then again, I'm one of those people that believe God has nothing to do with my overall health and leaves it up to my own responsibility to take care of my basic health needs...but that's just me.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
