Freedom of religion

[Reenk Roink]

ON TOPIC: I think ATPG described it best...

I mean, IF we give religious nutjobs the right to do whatever they want with their kids, what keeps parents from, say, stoning their openly gay son to death?

Both analogies fail tremendously. For the first it would only have a point if the parents actually intentionally gave their kid diabetes.

For the second, well

It's better likened it to this case:

If parents with a sick child and two treatment options are available, and the parents choose one of them as they believe with firm conviction that it will help, and it does not help, do you prosecute for negligence and endangerment.

Science is having to much influence on a free society...
