Someone get this man a gold star!

I avoided all news outlets after I heard about that too. Just in case.

I'm afraid of swimsuit models. I mean what do they look like unairbrushed? They could have airbrushed over open sores or extra limbs or something like that. Holy crap!

Philly Fan Intentionally Vomits on 11 Year Old Girl.

Yup, a class act there.

Am I the only one who sees the problem with the treatment option for the woman in this story?

So she starves her 1 year old son to death due to blindly following a religious cult...and the treatment includes bible study? Ummmm....

Baltimore Circuit Judge Timothy J. Doory suspended the balance of Ramkissoon's 20-year sentence and ordered her to report to a residential treatment facility for young women. The treatment program includes Bible study

whatWhatWHAAAAT!?!

The judge not only threw out (okay, suspended, whatever) her 20 year sentence and forced her into "treatment" that includes religious indoctrination? Are you fücking kidding me judge?!? Please re-read the First Amendment.

Yes, the Bible will teach her that when God asks you to kill your child, it's only a test. He doesn't really mean it. He will, however, kill the children of your enemies. Ultimately, if really pissed, he will kill his own son, but just for a while, which triggers the favorable portions of his plea deal.

Well, I always have an issue with any government mandated program that has a religious requirement (but I won't go into detail because I don't want to piss off people here again) so just on that level I've got issues.

That said, if she is of such a strongly religious bent that she starved her child it might be better to wean her on a form of religion that does not starve children rather than asking her to go cold turkey.

I like to think that if the gov't ever gave me a religious requirement of any kind, I'd take it all the way to the Supreme Court.
