Is religious superstition right?+Christian Scientist?

Question

I need to write an essay on my opinion about Christian Scientist and their beliefs.For example,Amy Hermanson was a victim due to religious superstition.Her parents were found guilty.In my opinion should her parent be found guilty and why?Can someone tell me whats their opinion on this?

Answer 1

What is so superstitious about this?

Jesus said,

If you do not forgive others, then, your father in Heaven will not forgive you."

Answer 2

It sounds to me like you want us to tell you what YOUR opinion is on this.

Let me just ask you, if you had a child and they got sick, would you be happy to watch them die if the prayer fails and assume it was God's will or just take them to a doctor and get them the antibiotics?

Christian scientist is at best an oxymoron. A scientist should have no preconceived ideas. They are after an objectice truth. Clinging to a superstitious faith makes them biased and untrustworthy before they even begin.

Answer 3

One webpage, http://www.childrenshealthcare.org/victims.htm provides more information on children who have died due to religious superstition.

Christian Science treatment should be made illegal throughout the world. In some instances, it is pure quackery: Ian Lundman's parents retained a Christian Science practitioner for 'spiritual treatment' of Ian's illness, who billed them $446 for his prayers. The boy died vomiting, urinating excessively, with labored breathing, facial spasms and clenched teeth.

Someone must die for these sins. Either the parents, or the practitioners. My opinion is to punish them both and stop the spread of this mumbo-jumbo cult.

Answer 4

You mean her Beliefs?
Her parents only should be guilty if they were trying to take away her beliefs in God.

Answer 5

there's no such thing as an intellectually honest Christian scientist
