Crazy Parents Kill Their SECOND Child With Faith Healing

http://bluntandcranky.wordpress.com/2013/04/23/crazy-parents-kill-their-second-child-with-faith-healing/

Snips:
"Anybody else, anybody else, who had killed two children would be locked up. But not these two. Because why? Because God told them to do it, that's why."

"It should make no difference if a parent (or anyone else) is high on Meth or high on Jesus: killing kids is killing kids."

Wouldn't it follow that god made doctors too?

Then again, fundies don't do critical thought.

Will they let their ignorance kill a 3rd before they put their faith in science and medicine?

How can they be that blind to the fact that obviously their praying did not work the first time! I mean there is stupid, then there is criminally-negligent-bullheaded-shouldn't-have-any-more-kids-out-of-danger-for-the-child kinda thing.

I don't think the parents need to be taken care of by the taxpayers in jail. Taking their kids away, including any she gives birth to later, will minimize the risk to the other kids. They can't be trusted to care for their kids.
