Religion or not, it was child neglect resulting in death.. Watch animal cops. It's the same thing for letting your animal get all sick and die without going to a vet. Did they stay home and give birth too..

He was found guilty today.

Garyprimer, the scriptures that this man relied on for his assumptions are often misapplied. He seemed to be praying specifically for a miraculous cure. But as we know, there is a treatment for diabetes, a treatment that was pioneered at least in part in hospitals and institutions of higher learning by the faithful that were established by religious groups and paid for by contributions from the faithful followers of God which is in keeping with God’s commission to his followers to heal the sick and feed the hungry. So since God provided medical know-how through His people, the man should have availed himself and his daughter of these treatments, an answer to his prayer. But instead, he was expecting something specific, a miraculous and final cure. And apparently he was unwilling to accept anything else. So, just like the atheists that reject the efficacy of prayer due to its lack of specific quantifiable results as defined by them, this man was also seeking a specific result defined by him while ignoring the help that God offers through medicine. In short, he expected God to act a certain way while ignoring the other options God provided. It’s as though a person who is praying for help to make a trip suddenly finds enough money in his sofa cushions for a bus ticket but instead opts to wait for what he wants or expects, perhaps even demands, God to do, send a chauffer driven limonene.

A jury of one's peers...

I wonder what is holding people up on this? While I understand the need for secrecy, I am interested in knowing the argument against conviction.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Would any of the Bible scholars out there please tell me what part of the Book this fine gentleman is referring to?

I wish there was some way to find out which hotel the jury in Wausau was staying, so I could pass some notes under their doors and subliminally tell them to vote guilty. Guilty, guilty, guilty.

When the guilty verdict gets handed down, and 47-year-old Dale Neumann has a stroke or a heart attack, just let him writhe on the floor of the courtroom. Let's deny him life saving medical treatment and form a circle. Then chant out prayers.

Seriously. Their religion by any other name would be torture. People hiding behind God has got to stop. Her parents let her die. There is a new fad called science, it has gotten some press over the last 500 years, I recommend people check it out. Having this trial in central Wisconsin is a plus for the defendant. If he is acquitted, I can only imagine the new "religions" popping up.

"My God told me to molest kids, I did not want to let my God down." "My God told me to shoot this guy for his wallet, because my God felt I needed to go to Ho Chunk."

I can already hear it now.

They sit there and pray, but would anyones vision of God want a child to suffer?
It's all well and good if they believe in something, but not when they have to weigh their own beliefs over the torture they put their kids through in cases like this.

He watched his daughter die. He just sat there and watched.
Let's give it the mentality that God also granted us the wisdom to treat our innocent children medically when they are knocking on deaths door.

If it were you or your family on trial, you would want them all to be sure...

If it were my case, I would want them to all agree.

the supreme court of the land does not have to agree 100% on anything. just takes a majority and the ruelings are usually always along party lines, i.e. conservative or liberal. yet, we expect a jury of 12 people to agree (in criminal cases) on everything or at least say they do, in order to find a verdict. to me, it never made sense.
