oh so now you all are clamoring for the government to get involved in the religious beliefs of others?? You cant have it both ways...religious freedom is just that. Just like freedom of speech, even when its not what you think is right its still protected.... Im not saying Im for or against what happened...Im just pointing out a fact for consideration. Im not clamoring for the government to get involved in religious beliefs of anyone.. im clamoring for the government to get involved in CHILD ABUSE/NEGLECT ok..so when do the rights of the children infringe on the rights of the parents..? and when do you expect the state to intervene and when does intervention become authoritarian and then facist? Its sad what happened, but what can you expect from the "land of the free?" the rights of the parents and children are the same but as a parent you have to determine what is best for your child..there is no way that not taking their child to the doctor screwed with their rights (however it screwed with the childs right to LIFE they brought her in this world and had NO RIGHT to decide when she died... they LET her die.).. their beliefs maybe but it doesnt matter... the health of your child and their well being comes BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE PERIOD |

Faith does not mean that we have to see how people die without doing any thing,...........Faith is believe in God, and wait for his help in things that humans are not able to solve. But in that case they were able to do something. who's faith? Is yours more righteous than someone elses? These people were prepared to accept "god's will"...are you? and how does one interpret what that means??? soo.. just out of curiousity where in the bible does it say that the use of medication or doctors is unholy or a sin? isnt allowing your child to die when you could do something a sin?

I dont think you would find a jury who would all agree this childs life was justly taken from her for not receiving medical care because of a religious belief.
I believe they would recognize that intentional negligence would be appropriate. If I was on the jury they both would sit in a cell and practice thier religious beliefs till death. Its one thing to guide a child another to impose on a child and force a belief just because you think its right. This helpless innocent child has died because of religious intentional selfishness, control, and negligence of two parents who should remember they are the only reason for this childs death and hold that guilt for life. |

A parent has the duty of care first and foremost to a child's physical well being... secondly, their emotional well being... their education is not a primary duty of care...
these parents failed their child...end of story. It doesn't matter what colour one tries to paint it... a child suffered at the hands of her parents... thats child abuse resulting in death... Black and white, no grey areas. |

My opinion on this is if were ment to go then so be it. I don't think the way the laws are today should so enforced. What i'm getting at is now an days DR will keep people alive for nothing when they can go in peace. I think Money rules alot of choices and were not given are freedom on or choices at times when it comes to hospitals.
Do i think they did wrong, I can't answer that because i think most things are wrong in this world on the way we live and besids all this, how does anyone know it wasn't worse then what was adverties. Think about this!! How many storys have been told about situations like this but find out latter that there was more to it then what the Adver is actually saying. |

I'm Christian, I also believe in doctors. I believe some people have the gift of healing. The parents should be held liable for the childs death. |

I dont think anything should happen to the parents, unless their is a law on the books that say's, you cant die for what you believe in.

Not at all God has given people (doctors) the power to heal. The parents should have taken the child to the doctor. JMO |

Luke in the Bible was a Doctor.....sooooooooo I'm sure they were either Scientologist, or Amish.... So the bible has no relivence in this case.. As much as I am for the freedom of religion.... I have to side with MY own morals and values and say the child should have been cared for... if it were an adult and they chose to not seek medical attention... that would be another story, but a child had no choice in the matter and could not make the appropriate choices for themself.... My very own personal views... let me in a room with them for about 15 minutes and then see if they want medical attention... |

Perhaps in the eyes of the parents.... but in the eyes of the society, they choose to reside in.....no...they are. Still it's black and white...the child died at her parents hands. |

i'm not sure just how i feel about this...
if we require medical treatment for children, where does it stop? what if the lawmakers declare that certain procedures absolutely have to be followed...it's a slippery slope. i really believe that a parent should have the right to refuse treatment for a child...a judge can, of course, overrule this. i'm fairly certain these parents have had their heart broken. i'm also pretty sure that they weren't trying to harm their kiddo... |

In legal terms the parents are held accountable due to the child's age. If the child were older it would be more complicated, however in this given predicament the parents should be held accountable regardless of religion choice.
If we don't show them they are responsible then every crime will have the "it's part of my religion" excuse, and we cannot allow that to happen. There is a fine line between religion and life. |
