Forums - Politics Discussion - Dad lets daughter die, rather than be touched by 'strange' rescuer

Excuse me, I desperately need to facepalm.

Also don't understand how people can come on here and hate on religions and lump all religions together and not take heat for it. Imagine if I lumped a race of people together with a comment, racial intolerance is no better or worse than the religious intolerance I see on these boards.


No it's very, very different.

Religion is a belief system, a choice, and all of them should be completely open to criticism for the things they preach. You cannot choose your race, you're born with it.


Critisism is one thing when it's warranted and specific, but tell me where any religious doctrine forbids having people of other races perform medical attention on someone, and link it to this familys religion?  I assume you or one of the other people that brought up religion clearly know more than I do about this specific case so please, by all means.  

Also not all religions are the same and each have their own seperate beliefs, so again you are wrong, because if you were right you'd be able to tell me the religion of the people in this article if they are religious based on the belief system of that religion.  The guy could have just been incredibably overprotective of his daughter and not want any man to touch her.  Simple as that, just doesn't want men to touch his daughter, guy doesn't want men giving his daughter mouth to mouth, not defending the guy at all but that's a theory that is just as valid and makes more sense, yet people here somehow connect dots that don't exist because they are intolerant, this is just one example and is not acceptable on this site.  Nowhere in the article does it mention religion, and if she somehow died for a religion belief, then critize that religion and that doctrine, not all religions, as a admin you should know better.

Why are people vilifying religion, well besides their own intolerance,, in regards to this article? It's clearly a cultural thing because the article does not mention religion at all. As a Catholic, I do not know of any other Catholics who would refuse medical attention or anything like that from anyone qualified, regardless of their race, sex, sexuality, religion or any other factor. God knows I've had doctors over the years and I never thought twice about who they were on the outside.

The real question is why go to a country and be surrounded by it's people if you wouldn't let them aid you or your family if something were to happen.

Also don't understand how people can come on here and hate on religions and lump all religions together and not take heat for it. Imagine if I lumped a race of people together with a comment, racial intolerance is no better or worse than the religious intolerance I see on these boards.

I don't know about Catholics, but, for example, Jehova's witnesses can't do blood transfusions. I saw one of them die because his fathers were so stubborn to let him die.

Fair enough, that's their belief though and is not a Catholic one.  There are no medical procedures that Catholics are not allowed to take with the exception of stem cells, everything else is on the table, from transfusions, resusitation, transplants, medication, and surgerys.  If it were me, my wife, or child, I would not hesitate to have anyone do anything they could to save that life.  I can't pretend to even name all the other religions but I do not like how Nauticus or whatever his name is can just lump all religions together with such a broad statement.  

The world is trying to get more tolerant but it just seems like I see way to many examples on these boards where the big brush of religion is just painted as broadly as possible.  And on an article that in all likelihood had nothing to do with religion.

If letting my daughter drown is the "honorable" thing to do, I'd rather be an honorless pig.



Please tell me this is some kind of bad joke. >_>
