Also, that's not even to say that I agree that religious beliefs permit any sort of egregious behavior, along the lines of letting children go without medical care OR bombing buildings. I think it's more of a question of personal autonomy as it extends to one's children, and religion as the basis for these decisions is irrelevant. If I don't think my child should receive treatment, it shouldn't matter why or why not; what really matters is whether I should be able to make this decision or not. Personally, I'm not sure where this line should be drawn, but I don't think the fact that terrorists don't have the right to commit bombings will affect my decision.
