No we shouldn't.  But unfortunately in the times we live in there is to much religious sway.  Look at the supreme court.  Luckily the ACLU is involved and the woman will recieve legal counsel and wont have to pay out the rear end.  Its also good that the media, well one at least, is picking this up.  I'm sure other will be outraged.  Her rights have certainly been trampled on.  Not only in the fact that the reasoning behind the case is a mess, but the fact they had a court hearing without giving her due notice and while she is out of state is illegal.  \n\nThis is messed up on so many levels, all my positive energy and thoughts go out to this woman.  I'm sure justice will be done for this woman as more than one of her rights have been trampled on.  The right people have gotten involved anyway.  This is dispicable.

Religion or no religion regardless if someone is demonstrating odd behavior like that around my children they need to be escorted away. I dont give a damn if you fee that you are religiously justified. Your not justifed by my foot that would quickly be in somones ass for not making sure my children was protected. I agree with you, and i wish you well

this is where people tell you that god works in mysterious ways. I wouldn't say that because it would piss me off if i were in your place. I'm sorry about your son. I don't know what to tell you about god, but I hope your son gets better.

My preacher once told me that you are not obligated by God to stay in a relationship that is harmful to you.  He also said God forgives those who divorce due to adultery and that adultery is not limited to a betrayal of a physical nature but can also be a betrayal of the heart, etc.  Abuse is betrayal.  My opinion, it would probably be more harmful for the child to grow up with that type of role model than for the child to be removed from the situation. I will also pray for you.

Thankfully no.\n\nI HAVE been berated by a family "friend" for being a godless heathen... but that was years ago.  He has since abandoned his vituperation for civility and I've not faced any serious problems since.\n\nI'm one of the LUCKY ones, though.

I don't know but if any of it is a federal offense you might want to contact the FBI.\nYears ago, before the government dropped the case against me, I took my daughter out of the country when the courts had jurisdiction over her and the FBI was after me then.\nHope you get some sort of justice, especially for your child.\nAnyways contact a lawyer, they might work for free ( I doubt it though).\nThere are also legal aid offices you can look up on the internet (for your community).\nIf you start filing court papers yourself the state might become embarrassed and get involved.  Can you have the papers (forms) sent to you from the place where the crimes took place and get them notarized and sent back?  But you would have to appear for the hearings(s) and trial.\nAre you a Christian?  Pray to God the Father in Jesus' name, don't forget about the Power of the Holy Spirit. Read the New Testament, it has all the answers and is not a long Book.  Start off with John 3:16 and put your name where it says whosoever, then ask Jesus into your heart and to forgive you of your sins, then ask to be filled with the Holy Spirit.  I know this sounds hard and crazy but isn't your situation the same?  It's easy to do, if it were hard no one could do it.

Don't treat religious people with kid gloves.  Tell them the truth at every chance you get.  This is the only way to get rid of religion.

No ... it seems it was not just the having the kid .. it was having the kid tortured and killed that did the trick. Oddly the christians believe that god got over it because he got to watch his son die in agony ... now THAT is one sick religion.

You "tried" Christianity for 20 yrs. What happened? It didn't fit your lifestyle. Now that's funny.....or not.

I don't know, but the former Attorney General of the United States, John Ashcroft, said something like "Islam is a religion in which God requires you to send your son to die for him.  Christianity is a faith in which God sends his son to die for you."  Personally I think that was an insulting and offensive to the Muslim world.  Unfortunately I have yet to hear a better distinction drawn.

YES!!! If the Under God part offends anyone, then they have the right NOT to say it.  I can remember being in class with kids who didn't say it for religious or personal reasons.  NO ONE said anything mean to them or made fun of them.  We asked them why & they gave us their reasons.  It was fine with everyone.
