[QUOTE=SpaceGhost;36288017]Wow.....you are just..wow, you're really...ugh, stupid as hell for thinking it's fine, how could you possibly fucking think parents watching their son die in agonizing pain is fine? Do you know how painful appendicitis is? I don't, because I've never had it, but I have heard it can be extraordinarily painful. If you think it's ok, you're just an idiot, plain and simple.[/QUOTE]
To paraphrase Simon Pegg in Hot Fuzz, 'Well I have and it's not in the least bit amusing'.
It's one of the worst, if not the worst, physical pain I've ever felt.

It's child abuse

He's a Dr. so I doubt it. He'd probably choose to put the kid in the hospital and pray. Not every Republican is 100 percent insane.

I am not saying he'd be fine with it but his argument would go something like ''It's the parent's freedom to do whatever they want with their child''
[QUOTE=Lord_Ragnarok;36288300]You know, if God's real, maybe after God keeps letting people die when people choose to pray rather than seek medical attention, maybe God isn't too interested in you and you should use the resources that you [I]know[/I] that you have.[/QUOTE]
Yeah like maybe god gave humans the ability to invent medicine and shit OH NOT I'LL PRAY TO GOD FOR A PERSONAL MIRACLE
See this is what the concept of a personal god brings
I had appendicitis last year, it was the [I]worst[/I] physical pain of my life
I woke up early from pain, and throughout the day the pain got worse and worse, pretty much by the hour, and it hurt more when you moved. By the time I was in the hospital (it was night by then) the pain was so bad that just laying on the hospital bed was painful, and I was then given pain killers so strong I couldn't feel any part of my body.
That was like what? 12 hours for me? And some few people take days before they get to the hospital (mostly stubborn people), and by then the doctors said they are screaming.
I can't even imagine his final hours, the horrific pain. What can cause this condition to kill you is that your appendix, which got infected with all sorts of nasty stuff, then finally bursts and floods your body with bacteria, feces, etc. You die from the blood poisoning
Jewsus fucking christ, a great news report to ruin my day once again.
I truly hope the world "ends" this year. Maybe next time there will be less idiots.
I've had appendicitis, and it's agonizingly painful even before a deadly rupture.
It sucks so bad that he had to go through it entirely until it killed him, it would be a god damn horrible way to die.

you are free to believe what you want as long as it wont harm others.[/QUOTE]
I think we should hurry the fuck up and make religion Taboo. It's obvious that it doesn't work. Not prosecute it, just social taboo. Otherwise, they just pull a bible 2.0 and we do something insanely rash and stupid too.
[QUOTE=J Paul;36286675]I'm probably going to get a lot of disagreement for this, but I believe this is perfectly okay. If these goofy parents want to let their kid die, I'm okay with that. There are enough people, it's very very very easy to make more, it's a known method, so overall, the hit that humanity takes from these goofy religious people just isn't significant. It's just one less white privileged kid, one less person to sponge off the amazing comfort provided by our technology and our exploitation of third world labor. And I know he's privileged because first off he lives in America, it's amazing here compared to a lot of other places, and second, denying abundantly available medical care is something that only goofy ass privileged white people do when they get to a certain point in their life where they feel the need to seek alternative lifestyles.[/QUOTE]
I'd really love to say that you're trolling but the fucking mass abundance of idiocy and general moronic behavior in this post leads me to the solid, undoubted certainty that you're an idiot. The fact that you have so little value and respect in this day and age for a human life is beyond me, and in my opinion, makes you even worse than these people. Oh and by the way idiot; a parent shouldn't have the legal right to sit there and decide, when their child is a year away from being considered an adult by American law, to kill them just because they can make more. By fucking god, 109 words in and I still cannot even catch a slimmer of logic, in any possible discernible form to present itself in your rambling paragraph of selfish statements and crude phrasings. I realize how this news is old, but I can't fucking stop myself from replying to this. It's so fucking disheartening that anybody on this planet carries your flawed, unnatural mindset. Go to hell, jesus fucking christ.
