No faith in science

The mother of an 11-year-old girl who died of undiagnosed diabetes as the family prayed for her to get better testified Tuesday that she believes sickness is caused by sin and can be cured by God.

Leilani Neumann told the jury in her husband’s trial that she thought her daughter’s March 2008 illness was a test of her religious faith and she didn’t take the girl to a doctor because that would have been “complete disobedience to what we believe.”

There isn’t enough hard drive space on my server to record all the Fuck Yous I’d love to direct at Mrs. Naumann and her husband in this post. I hope the judge’s god is telling him to sentence these two monsters to forever in prison. (via cyn-c)
