Some piously affirm: "The truth is such and such. I know! I see!"
And hold that everything depends upon having the “right” religion.
But when one really knows, one has no need of religion. - Mahavyuha Sutra
Freedom necessarily involves risk. - Alan Watts
Re: Child dies due to faith healing; parents get 6 months of jail time
What I'm saying is that they have already been sentenced by the laws of nature. Our justice system pales in comparison to them cutting off the branches of their own tree.
The happiness is not aimed at the death of the child, it is aimed at how puny our system of laws is compared with the laws of nature. Ours we can plead, bargin, parole, get let off. The other always gets its man and is fair in a very unforgiving manner. Mind you just because we all die doesn't mean we should be giving the system an assist.
Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

Until faith healing or similar has been shown to have genetical connections, I remain unconvinced that we're actually witnessing some sort of evolution..

But we as a people evolved to be religious because historically it has been a big advantage. So the child dying is a loss for evolution not "A win for evolution".
