Don’t knock praying just because you don’t believe. While I believe prayer works, I also KNOW that GOD wants us to help ourselves also. I’m glad here parents have so much faith in GOD but I do believe that while they were praying they should have taken her to the doctor and kept praying that those doctors would heal her. After all, GOD put doctors here for a reason. He uses them for HIS purposes. Prayer works and I know it does. Even doctors can’t explain somethings when miracles happen from praying. Religion is not a delusion and i am tired of people who don’t believe in GOD trying to drown out the faith of them that do. If you don’t believe, that’s you, but alot of people do believe in the power of prayer

This is sickening.
These morons should be treated as animals. Lock them up in a good strong cage and throw the key away. Then they can pray as much as they want.
I’m sick of idiots who believe in a sky buddy, in non sense stories and kill for their stupid selfish interest.
Religion is simply conditional delusion in other words a mental illness.

Prayer had a dramatic effect in saving my life when I was in a coma with meningococcal meningitis, so I’m certainly not going to rule it out of any healing process with regard to my own kids…
… that said, if the child was exhibiting symptoms of a serious illness, she should have been taken to a doctor.

Prayers aren’t always answered immediately, nor are we given exactly what we ask when we want it. While this may be difficult to understand from an athiest perspective, God has a will and a plan for everyone and sometimes, despite our most fervent prayers, things don’t happen according to plan.

On another note, people die in hospitals every day due to misdiagnosis from doctors. Should doctors be charged?

wtf? That makes no sense. No they will be charged with neglect period. Nothing to do with praying, since praying is doesn;t work. If an atheist child died after being taken to hospital has nothing to do with not praying or not, it just happened. These parents neglected to give their child at least a chance of suriviving by taking her to the doctor and hosptial. If praying did work the child would be alive.

Thistmay be true , and I agree that the parents should be charged. But what about the athiest who takes their child to the hospital but, without the benefit of faith and prayer the doctor’s are not able to save her. Should they be charged for child neglect for NOT praying?

There is a big difference between what you believe and what you know. Your argument about the box of springs and gears is flawed because they aren’t living things. Put a box of living things together and wait a million years and see what happens. You may not see evolution of one species to another but it will look different.

Well, people really do this everywhere.. If you really look, you can find an extremist group on subject from ‘Video Games are from hell’ to ‘Sticky notes are hot.’

That said, it doesn’t surprise me that this one exists, but it certainly angers me to see such young children been told to say things beyond their levels of comprehension because some nut-job told them to.
