Really, I think there are too many stupid people on the planet as it is. If some idiots are dumb enough to believe shit like this and get themselves killed, they won't be missed. I don't really have a problem with any of this.

And where is the court case? 3 people *died as a result of being given "care" by these eejits.

Last time I looked, practicing medicine without qualifications was against the law.....

Does "God works in a mysterious ways" hold up in court when there are manslaughter charges levied against them?

Your Honor, I plead not guilty because God obviously wanted them dead.
