    Well this certainly has nothing to do with religion. Just like every other form of cult/fanaticism - religion is merely the excuse. Its like its used as some form of get out clause.

    I'd like to teach them some religion.

    An eye for an eye comes to mind. Sick bast@rds.

    I'm going to post what we're all thinking.

    This is a crazy religious cult, right?

    Presumably they're always saying amen cuz they're religious nuts, right?

    Presumably the child knew that he was expected to say amen, right?

    So why didn't the child just say amen?

    HHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!?!??!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!??!?!?!?

    please tell me you are joking. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Perhaps his grasp of religious observance wasn't as sharp as it could have been at only 16 months-old and all that.

    You dont have to be a theologian to say amen.

    Presuming he's said it before, why didn't he say it that time? Did he just forget? Or was he taking a stand?

    If he's never said it before then why pick that point in time to start starving him for not saying it?

    If he couldn't talk at all then fair enough it's a bit harsh.

    Basic cognitive development would help though, very little of which you have at 16 months.

    At that age, the word "Amen" probably made as much sense to the kid as the word "Barney".

    If it was nothing to do with religion, then why was this child punished in this fashion for not adhering to a meaningless ritual, which at 16 months of age, it doesnt have the capacity to understand, or argue against?


    Show me one thing in religion of any kind that says to punish and murder a baby a child or an adult for any reason? It simply does not say it anywhere.They wanted to cos harm to that baby :( and they used religion as an excuse,and they can not blame their religious beliefs on it.So dont let them! Simple fact is they are murderers nothing more and should get the chair:mad:

    its a baby you cretan. It is not capable of the cognitive functions you are assuming here. on previous occasions they probably just got him to repeat the word not having a clue what it meant. and for all we know this could have been the first meal where the psycho **** leader was present.

    Only if he couldn't talk though, right? :rolleyes:

    Go back and have another look at the photo of the little fella. If you really don't feel anything other than absolute sadness, then you should go see a doctor tbh.

    Are you being serious? A child that age can barely talk, and so what if they could say it.

    Also, i would not call what was done to the child a "bit harsh", seeing as they you know starved to death, which is not a nice way to die. A would use something more alongs the lines of a horrific torturous death by someone who was clearly sadistic.

    This thread is getting a bit sick, don't you think? Utter idiots are talking about things that they dont understand! A child has been starved to death here - nothing in the world could justify that. The person who asked why the baby did not say amen on that particular occasion needs to have a long think about themselves - obviously they know nothing about babies!

    Well, we can take some comfort in the fact that if there's such a place as Hell, that's where that sicko is going - straight down!

    OH but they only have to confess their sins and repent and away they go to heaven,imagine how crowded it is :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,492 ✭✭✭Thomas828


    You're thinking of Purgatory. As I understand it, you do your stint in Purgatory and then you go to Heaven. Whereas if you go to Hell, you stay there. End of story... And your soul.

    There's a line of thought now that this world we are in might be purgatory - some might even say hell! Remember there used to be a place called Limbo - where all unchristened babies went? What happened to that? Did the church decide to do away with it?
