Celestial Justice

Appearing today in The Oregonian:



The Oregon-based Followers of Christ Church has been losing a lot of children lately. Primarily because they refuse to take their kids to hospitals--electing instead to stand around, pray, and anoint them with oil. It doesn't have near the success rate of modern medicine so Clackamas County officials want to press charges against the parents. But why stop there?

I see you got some cred over on Pharyngula for this one. You're big time now!

oh wow, I didn't see that he posted it. Cool. He posted my pope comic which was what probably lead to it being so huge.

You can probably thank me, unless you have multiple pharyngulites here. I linked him this one because he often rants on faith healers, I didn't expect him to give it a whole post!

I saw the pope comic (still one of my very favs!) on Dawkins' site, too, in the humor section.

Looks like 3 pharyngulites here, minimum.
