God helps those that help themselves. She is not helping anyone by running. We need to set an age for kids that once reached they can make the decision. I think this would appease both sides. Until that age you should always see a doctor because faith alone doesn’t heal. Isn’t that pretty much saying that all the other kids that died prob did because they didn’t pray enough for God to smite the cancer. 90% of children with this cancer are cured through chemotherapy. What is the % of kids that had full blown cancer and it went away by doing nothing or by praying? I doubt it reaches 90%. If a women can’t tend to her child I’m afraid I have to agree with govt on this one. We are not perfect so therefore how can this mother know without a shadow of a doubt she is right and how are we supposed to know if God’s meaning was literal. Why not err on the side of caution and let this boy live!
I guess I dont think it matters what she knows. It is her child. If you dont like the government telling you what to do with your children or your property or whatever, some ot the stands are hard to take. But I can live with her not treating her child traditionally.
>>But I can live with her not treating her child traditionally.<<
Her child can’t, though.
More's the pity that Chickensoup can live with her not treating her child traditionally, yet the child in question cannot live with it. Sucks to be that kid in your world huh? Thank God people like you aren't in charge.
