[Obama 2012 1,714]

I see. So any killing of another in one's home is protected by the first amendment as long as one claims religious motives. Excellent!

So in your world the police come in to investigate this murder.

The mother is hysterical and is rolling around on the floor speaking in tongues.

"Hashooo Hachoooo Hachooo...Machu Picchu, Hachoooo"

The police ask her what is going on. What happened?

She says: "The Lord has forsaken me. He told me to abandon modern day medicine and just use the power of thinking thoughts inside my brain [prayer]....Hachoooooo....Hachoooooooo"

Police say, "Well, why didn't you say so in the first place. You are protected from criminal charges because of your beliefs. Have a nice day."

And they leave the house with the frantic lady still rolling around on the floor speaking in tongues.

If this same lady had cancer and trusted God to heal her rather than have the spots removed from her skin.... do you think we would hear about it?

It's only a story when something like this happens.

I saw a story today about a Snake-handler who was bit during a church service and died.

When you're an adult you can do with your life as you please. Your comparison is asymmetrical for the patient here was a child. Parents have an obligation to protect their children and this mother failed epically. Animals take better care of their young than this mother did in name of her superstitious beliefs.

It wasn't murder. The kid had a disease. Plain and simple. He died from that disease.

Just because you can 'treat' something to delay the inevitable and you don't, doesn't make you a murderer. If anything she showed the kid mercy.

If you want to take your kid to the doctor and prolong their life, great. If she didn't, great. It doesn't fvcking have an affect on your life, so why worry?

Well technically speaking the left wing loons claim this non-existant seperation of church and state all the time, so really what your saying should apply if you get down to it. After all, the state is interfering in a religious practice which they should not be able to do....

And of course all these kind hearted Libs would have been just fine with her having the RIGHT to destroy that same human being, up until the minute prior to being born...... thats whats so laughable.

However you must remember ours is a secular country, which means the law trumps religious superstition and not the other way around.

Actually if you know anything about animals (other than cartoons) you know the parents often eat their young.

The #1 law in this country is the first amendment and it supercedes all other laws. Oh wait, that's except when it's convenient for it not to. That's right. It seems to only be a tool that the left-wing goons use to their benefit, but don't let anyone else use when they actually want to practice religion. I forgot.

Yes they often do, but never out of cruelty or negligence. Animals take better care of their young than this mother did.

How could it be a purely secular country when right out of the gate our founding documents clearly state our rights come from a creator?

No really. The Constitution in its entirety is the #1 law in this country. The First Amendment only guarantees that our society maintains its freedom of and from religion. Whichever the case, our law trumps religion at all times.

Show evidence where this ladies actions were rooted in cruelty or negligence, She gave the care that she honestly thought was best.

That was to be expected from a group of deists. It is purely secular in the sense that no particular religion or deity is endorsed.

And Charles Manson was acting on his religious beliefs as well...

Dude put the wine down, your posts are becoming more and more silly.

See this is the problem with you folks, you have some warped view then you spend the rest of your life hiding from history so it is not upset.

Did you know that Congress actually printed Bibles with tax money?

See there you go again, one tries to have a cogent discussion with you and you veer of into silly as a defense.
