WEIRD: Faith healing couple convicted of homicide for letting son die of treatable urinary tract infection. The stupid, it burns
Stupid people shouldn't be allowed to breed. Religious stupid people should have their kids taken away from them. Take Jeff and Marci Beagley as an example. Their 16 year old son suffered from a urinary tract infection, a very common thing that is easily treatable. These two idiots don't believe in any of that fancy shmancy science stuff, they prefer good old fashioned faith healing. After watching their son Neil suffer for 2 months ... 2 MONTHS ... the boy died. Needless to say, the authorities were none too pleased.
The couple, who practices faith healing, was convicted of criminally negligent homicide on Tuesday after prosecutors argued they failed in their duty to get medical help for their son, Neil, in June 2008.
Neil Beagley died of complications from a congenital urinary tract blockage. Doctors testified the he could have been treated up until the day he died.

If this isn't bad enough, the story gets worse.
His death came just months after the death of their granddaughter, Ava Worthington, who died under similar circumstances.
The 15-month-old passed away March 2008 of pneumonia and a blood infection. Like Neil, she was given oils and prayer instead of medicine.
The toddler's parents, Raylene and Carl Worthington, were acquitted of manslaughter last year. The trial tested a change in Oregon law in 1999 resulting from a public outcry over a series of child deaths among members of the Followers of Christ Church.

The stupid members of Followers of Christ Church are renown for doing just this. I don't know about you, but I think it is time to disband this church making it a crime for their followers to have children.

Wow! I totally agree these religious freaks shouldn't be allowed to have children, so many of them have died from treatable ailments. This is bs, how many more will have to die before someone steps in and takes the kids away BEFORE they die?? I am quite spiritual and believe in God and faith and all, but I also belive God gave us brains so we could develop medicine to treat and heal ourselves with. I also think the pics of the parents crying is ridiculous, if they just got some antibiotics for the poor child, there would be nothing to cry over. They should also be charged for the outrageous pain and suffering they put him through for 2 MONTHS before he actually died. I hope they both get a UTI and no meds to clear it up. It would serve them right. And I don't even know where to start on the FABULOUS job they did with their other children, seeing how they let the 15 month old die a horrible pain filled death too. This sh*t makes my blood boil
