    Correct. If a woman wants to murder her baby, that is her right.

    But make no mistake -- that is what it is. No reason to sugarcoat the truth.

    The deputy medical examiner knew before knocking on the door. There was a grim scene waiting for Eric Tonsfeldt inside the single-story house set among the pine trees outside of Oregon City, Oregon — a tragedy that had played out there before.

    It was around 8:45 on March 5, 2017, and the Clackamas County official was responding to a report of a dead newborn.

    The child had not been delivered in a hospital. She wasn’t attended to by doctors and nurses. The baby died amid the murmured prayers of friends and family.

    this was a familiar occurrence with members of the Followers of Christ Church, a faith-healing sect

    We must not be here in the 21st century since its impossible to birth outside of physician's care in a hospital. Its not like mankind did not exist until secular humanism gave it legitimacy. Bigoted Much? I would assume you would be the first to say its ok to commit assisted suicide....but unassisted birth is immoral?

    Birthing living children (they had premature twins) who need medical support to survive, but not getting such support, is not only immoral -- it is homicide. Thankfully for the one twin, it was taken away and to the hospital, and survived.

    From the article:
    "On Monday, Ginnifer’s parents Sarah and Travis Mitchell — 25 and 22, respectively — both pleaded guilty to criminal negligent homicide and criminal mistreatment, Clackamas County District Attorney John S. Foote announced in a statement."
    ...
    "To that end, the Mitchells are the first church members to willingly plead guilty to criminal charges related to the death of their child.

    "On Monday, both parents were sentenced to 6 years in prison.

    "Their surviving child is currently in foster care."

    adhering to religious principles of believing that medical care is against gods will is NOT CAUSING harm or death. CAUSING would be like beating the snot out of the brats.
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    So says the guy who believes in dark ages superstitions and thinks he is going to live for ever, because he mumbles the correct incantations to himself in a magic house once a week.
    We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
    Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
    Ergo, religion.

    rac·ist
    rāsəst/noun
    a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
    Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
    If the answer is yes, you are a racist.
