  An 11-year-old girl died after her parents prayed for healing rather than seek medical help for a treatable form of diabetes, police said Tuesday.

Everest Metro Police Chief Dan Vergin said Madeline Neumann died Sunday.

"She got sicker and sicker until she was dead," he said.

Vergin said an autopsy determined the girl died from diabetic ketoacidosis, an ailment that left her with too little insulin in her body, and she had probably been ill for about 30 days, suffering symptoms like nausea, vomiting, excessive thirst, loss of appetite and weakness.

The girl's parents, Dale and Leilani Neumann, attributed the death to "apparently they didn't have enough faith," the police chief said.

They believed the key to healing "was it was better to keep praying. Call more people to help pray," he said.

The mother believes the girl could still be resurrected, the police chief said.

UGH.

Doesn't the saying go, "God helps those who help themselves"?

Praying for the girl to get better without seeking health care is like trying to win the lottery without buying a damn ticket.

With that said, it's a damn shame that little girl died.

Talk about being a religious fanatic, because of their nonsense the little girl had to suffer.

Arthur C Clarke had said religious fanaticism will be the last great divider of humanity once Race is no longer a factor (eventually everyone will be mulatto /Cheegro/Chindian/dougla/etc.) .

  Its things like this that make people become atheist , religion seems to attract the stupidest people to do the stupidest things for some reason.

There are a few things I don't agree with here (not you personally Trini). Firstly... and sadly I not so sure about the whole everyone malato thing... whilst I completely condone (wait for it) DOUGLARIZATION of the races... I think variety is the spice of life and let's face it, the chinese are going to wtfpwn everyone... haven't yall realized they infiltrating EVERYWHERE? before everyone realize they'll all either be predominantly chinee or be chinee... that aside, I wouldn't say religion attracts the stupid... more like it TARGETS the stupid. Let's face it the saying goes a PERSON is smart, PEOPLE are stupid. It's easier to control stupid people than smart, intellectual types... I mean its very obvious in OUR country... just ask the former minister of education and the current PM XD they won't tell you the honest truth that it's better that our country school system go to beans was all a plan to keep em in power XD
