However, someone who chooses to &quot;pray&quot; over going for a simple doctor's visit, is just asking for death.<br/><br/>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. <br/><br/>&quot;If I cross the street without looking I won't get hit by a car because G-d will protect me.&quot; 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.<br/><br/>The fact that they aren't tied to any particular religion just makes me feel like they were ignorant and uneducated, not religious idealists.]]></content></entry><entry><title><![CDATA[DerAlt1 @ 3/27/2008 5:20:32 PM]]></title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.plime.com/plime-com/l/56001/1/atom0_3.rss#q5" /><id>227127</id><summary><![CDATA[&#9834;&#9835; Always look at the bright side of life &#9834;&#9835;]]></summary><issued>2008-03-27T17:20:32+01:00</issued><modified>2008-03-27T17:20:32+01:00</modified><content type="text/html" mode="escaped"><![CDATA[&#9834;&#9835; Always look at the bright side of life &#9834;&#9835;]]></content></entry><entry><title><![CDATA[bevissimo @ 3/27/2008 4:29:32 PM]]></title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.plime.com/plime-com/l/56001/1/atom0_3.rss#q4" /><id>227084</id><summary><![CDATA[I am glad the article made firm that the parents aren't tied to any particular religion, just braindead zealots on their own.]]></summary><issued>2008-03-27T16:29:32+01:00</issued><modified>2008-03-27T16:29:32+01:00</modified><content type="text/html" mode="escaped"><![CDATA[I am glad the article made firm that the parents aren't tied to any particular religion, just braindead zealots on their own.]]></content></entry><entry><title><![CDATA[coldbladed @ 3/27/2008 4:27:50 PM]]></title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.plime.com/plime-com/l/56001/1/atom0_3.rss#q3" /><id>227082</id><summary><![CDATA[<div class='qp pad d'><a class="page-dull td" href="/braindead/l/56001/1/#q2"><b>&laquo;</b></a>&nbsp;<i><b>chordpiano</b> : UNBELIEVEABLE....that is just wrong!<br/><br/>It takes all kinds I suppose...I hope the parents pay for their stupidity!</i></div>W...]]></summary><issued>2008-03-27T16:27:50+01:00</issued><modified>2008-03-27T16:27:50+01:00</modified><content type="text/html" mode="escaped"><![CDATA[<div class='qp pad d'><a class="page-dull td" href="/braindead/l/56001/1/#q2"><b>&laquo;</b></a>&nbsp;<i><b>chordpiano</b> : UNBELIEVEABLE....that is just wrong!<br/><br/>It takes all kinds I suppose...I hope the parents pay for their stupidity!</i></div>Why would they, clearly God wanted her to die.
