UNBELIEVEABLE....that is just wrong!

It takes all kinds I suppose...I hope the parents pay for their stupidity!

Why would they, clearly God wanted her to die. Who are they to disagree with him?

And the cycle goes on and on.

I am glad the article made firm that the parents aren't tied to any particular religion, just braindead zealots on their own.

♪♫ Always look at the bright side of life ♪♫

Things like this always drive me nuts. I have my own religious beliefs, just as everyone else does. However, someone who chooses to "pray" over going for a simple doctor's visit, is just asking for death.

It doesn't matter if you are jewish, muslim, catholic, or etc. etc. all religions teach similar things - that G-d provides you with the strength and tools you need in life. In my opinion, that includes the ability to hop in the car and go to a doctor, who him/herself was given the ability to help the sick, who have the tools to diagnose and treat illnesses like diabetes.

"If I cross the street without looking I won't get hit by a car because G-d will protect me." No, G-d gave you the ability to turn your head two directions before walking to the other side of the road. The rest is up to you.

The fact that they aren't tied to any particular religion just makes me feel like they were ignorant and uneducated, not religious idealists.

If they were right, and God wanted her to die, they did the right thing and prayed.

If they were wrong, and God doesn't exist, what does it matter anyway?

I'm not a very religeous person myself but I'm often reminded of the addage "I know there ain't no heaven, but I pray there ain't no hell"

...other than the horrible waste of a young life because the parents are ignorant, backwards savages you mean? That girl could have done anything with her life, and instead she's dead.

If god grants the power to stay sober to drunks in AA. I think god grants the power to use medicine when your child is sick.

My alternate comment would have read:
I guess God was off helping a team win a sporting event that day.

EPIC FAIL.
