praying man let his daughter diedale neumann faces up to 25 years in prisona us jury has found a man guilty of killing his sick 11-year-old daughter by praying for her recovery rather than seeking medical care.. the man, dale neumann, told a court in the state of wisconsin he believed god could heal his daughter.. she died of a treatable disease - undiagnosed diabetes - at home in rural wisconsin in march last year, as people surrounded her and prayed.. neumann's wife, leilani neumann, was convicted earlier this year.. the couple, who were both convicted of second-degree reckless homicide, face up to 25 years in prison when they are sentenced in october.. a lawyer representing dale neumann said he would appeal.. 'faith healing'.

during the trial, medical experts told the court that neumann's daughter could have survived if she had received treatment, including insulin and fluids, before she stopped breathing.. on thursday neumann, who is 47 and studied in the past to be a pentecostal minister, said he thought god would heal his daughter.. "if i go to the doctor, i am putting the doctor before god," he said.

"i am not believing what he said he would do.".

Being Brought Up As A Jehovah's Witness---Was It A "BAD" Upbringing?

i think that my upbringing made me the person that i am today---for good and bad.

even though i was raised a witness, i don't think that my upbringing was bad.. your thoughts, please..

I know a family who were raised as witnesses. The kids used to say "lets play beatings" - not lets play "meetings" - very sad really

i just want to publicly apologize for being an ass to fhn.

fhn, you do annoy the heck out of me many times, but i have to acknowledge that you've continued to be friendly and not take it personally.

differences aside, that's worth a lot.

FHN is a nice person

If A Police Officer "Asked" You To Do Something Would You Necessarily Do It?

by minimus in

if a cop asked you if he could search your vehicle, would you let him?.

if a cop asked you personal information would you feel obliged to answer him?.

do you believe that a police officer has the "right" to question you about a matter simply because he's a cop?.

YES
