These things are not that rare. This is from last year’s Daily Mail, reporting on a case in Oregon:

Five years of probation in return for killing their son.

Here’s who else is guilty besides the parents:

The Church of the First Born, for preaching doctrine that encourages child murder (Churches are never held responsible for such deaths),

The judge, for handing down probation and therefore reducing the possibility of deterring religious and like-minded parents from similar acts,

The U.S. government, for allowing 43 states (Oregon is an exception) to have legal exemptions from child abuse, manslaughter, or homicide if medical care is withheld on religious grounds.

State governments, for passing those laws,

Moderate religionists, for helping pass those laws and not opposing them,

The rest of us, for not working to overturn them.
