I'm not trolling.
I'm a firm believer in freedom of and freedom from religion.
I can't tell someone else what parts of heir religion to practice.
Can I think they are stupid, yes. Should compel them to do as I do? No.
This does not excuse them from being murderers. Sure they are free to practice religion however they choose, but when their kids lives are threatened, shit gets real.
These children should have been placed in a more suitable, and safer environment.
I agree with you, in principle, but who should decide what that safe environment is? Who gets to define it and on what grounds? What evidence should be taken into account? Is a paper in a scientific journal enough, or does the evidence have to be in the form of an approved medicine marketed by a multinational company? Should the decision-makers be a committee or a politically elected group? Are there minimum requirements in education or experience in parenting?
It's a can of worms and would eat away most of our freedoms in a heartbeat.
