Rest in peace to cute little baby!!! The tragedy of having christian parents!!! Their brains function like "Brighton and Hove Albion" in the English Premier League!!! Low level of skills, low level of abilities, and extremely low performance levels!!! If little baby had been a child of a follower of "OtemAtum", then surely sweet little baby might have lived!!!

The painful part is not that these christian parents were born stupid.........................................BUT THE PAINFUL PART IS THAT THEY CHOSE STUPIDITY!!!

FULL STORY:

A Lansing woman refused to seek medical treatment for her newborn daughter even after a midwife warned that the infant's jaundice could lead to brain damage or death, a police detective testified last week in court.

The mother told the midwife her baby was fine, and that "God ... makes no mistakes," the detective said.

Two days later the infant was dead.

The woman, 30-year-old Rachel Joy Piland, and her husband, 36-year-old Joshua Barry Piland, have been charged with involuntary manslaughter.

Attempts to reach Rachel and Joshua Piland were not successful. No one answered the door at their Lansing home Wednesday evening. Court records indicate they have requested court-appointed attorneys.

Authorities only learned of the child's death after Rachel Piland's brother called from California and told police a baby had died at the couple's home, Lansing Police Detective Peter Scaccia said in a hearing that led to the charges.

Scaccia then described a series of events that ended with the child's death.

Abigail Piland was born about 9:50 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 6, at the Pilands' home one block east of the Lansing Country Club.

A midwife and her assistant helped with the delivery. The midwife, who had previously helped deliver two of Rachel Piland's children, expressed no concerns about the child's health when she and the assistant left around midnight.

But when the midwife saw the baby on Feb. 7, her assessment changed.

Abigail appeared jaundiced, and the midwife advised Rachel Piland to take the child to a pediatrician or an emergency room, Scaccia said. "She told Piland the baby could suffer brain damage or die if not properly cared for.

"Rachel declined to seek any medical treatment for Abigail, stating God makes no mistakes," Scaccia said. "She indicated to the midwife that the baby was fine."

The midwife scheduled another appointment for the next day, but Rachel Piland later cancelled it.

On Feb. 8, Abigail wasn't eating properly and coughed up blood.

Rachel Piland then put the two-day-old child "near a window wearing just a diaper utilizing a hair dryer to keep her warm," the detective said.

At one point Piland's mother, Rebecca Kerr, told her daughter that Abigail's skin was "not the right color."

"Rachel told Rebecca about (the midwife's) concern," the detective said. "And then Rachel went to listen to sermons."

On the morning of Feb. 9, the mother and daughter noticed blood coming out of Abigail's nose, and that the baby wasn't eating or breathing well.

Rebecca Kerr wanted to call for help but "Rachel would not allow her," Scaccia said. Around 11 a.m., Rachel Piland found her daughter "lifeless and not breathing" in a bouncy seat.

She took the baby to Joshua Piland — her husband and Abigail's father — who had been asleep.

"He attempted one rescue breath but had no success," the detective said. "He did not want to perform CPR because he only knew how to perform it on adults, not children.

"They then brought Abigail upstairs to pray for her. Joshua continued to massage Abigail, attempting to get her good air. Both Josh and (Rachel) reached out to friends and fellow church members to come to their home and pray for Abigail’s resurrection, but never called the police.”

When police later arrived at the home they "went upstairs and found a baby that had passed away and three other people praying for it," Scaccia said.

Dr. Patrick Hansma, a medical examiner at Sparrow Hospital, later conducted an autopsy and found that Abigail died from unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia and kernicterus. Both conditions are related to jaundice.

"He said if treated, most likely she would've been alive," the detective testified.

The husband and wife were each charged with a single count of involuntary manslaughter and released after posting $75,000 bond on Sept. 21. Their next hearing is scheduled for Oct. 5 in Lansing's 54A District Court. They face up to 15 years in prison if convicted.

At the time of their daughter's death, the Pilands appear to have been involved with a Lansing-based bible school called Faith Tech Ministries, which describes itself online as nondenominational but similar to other “full gospel” or “Pentecostal” organizations.

Joshua Piland has posted online videos of missionary trips to Kenya with the group, and in 2016 he was listed as a speaker at a Divine Healing Conference, organized by Faith Tech Ministries.

His LinkedIn profile indicates he left the organization in February, the same month his daughter died.

No one at Faith Tech Ministries answered the phone Wednesday afternoon and evening.

Piland worked for the Michigan Economic Development Corporation from 2009 until sometime this month, MEDC Executive Vice President Lynne Feldpausch said. She would not say which day was Piland's last, or why he left the agency. Piland on Wednesday was still listed as a senior project manager in the organization's online directory.

It's a pity. Christians why?

Evidence keeps amassing that supports the argument Religion - Christianity here - is a form of mental injury.

@Seun we hardly get to see the harms of religion on the front page. Please take threads like this to Front-page. Thank you.

Just a few days of phototherapy would have solved the issue... R.I.P little child Jesus and Holy spirit could not dash your parents some brain to take you to the hospital

At the bolded, you are taking it too far. Do Jesus and Holy spirit, the fictitious characters have brains on their own? They can't give what they don't have joor.

There is Always Power In the Name of Jesus.

Nothing is impossible with God. A lot of things would have gone wrong.


A prayer of FAITH, with Holiness on the part of the prayer will work wonders.


Jesus healed a withered hand. In 1924, Pastor Smith prayed an someone who has been on a wheelchair for 20 years got up and walked.

By the same pastor, someone who was pronounced dead by a medical doctor rose on his feet.

I believe till death, that there is power in his name.

The Devil and other useless gods that you all preach and root for are liars and cannot stand the presence of the Holy Ghost.

You can't help but be weak and some delusions when displayed.

There are times when I want to comment on the delusions of these sheeples but I just weak. There wahala just too much.

Here is a similar case from the DOCTUFOS OF TRUTH

Doctufos: Otem Erectus 212: 13-16


13. Have you not heard of a man whose wife was in labour in the hospital? And the midwife said, this woman can only have her child through surgery. For she shall not live if she does not go under the knife.
14. And the man went to seek his pastor. And that pastor said, do not allow her to go under the knife to have her baby, but have faith in god. And the man had faith in Yahweh his god. And he did not agree that his wife should deliver through surgery.
15. And his wife struggled in the labour room to have her child. And she died when she had no strength to push further. Now this is an example of religious rigidity which is caused by ignorance.
16. Does a pastor know better than a doctor in the matter of lives and health? Can a church be equated to a house of healing? If even all your pastors have private doctors to help them check their health periodically, how then do you think foolishly that your pastors can cure you? Therefore I say, go to the house of healing when you are sick. For the hospital is the place where the gods of healing have recommended for your well being and not churches or moskhs.

The sheeple can behave sheepish sha

There is no power in the fictitious name Jesus. How can a fictitious name have power when the historical aspect of him has no power. See what happened when Gwana(an evangelist) and Mattu (a traditionalist) engaged in a power contest. Gwana failed while using the name of Zeusus Krista(the historical form of fictitious Jesus).

Doctufos: Aferk 14: 7-24

7. And Gwana refused to comply. And he said, let us fix again a day in which we shall stand together and use the power in our hands to see who shall bow for the other.
8. For I know surely that your knees shall bow for Zeusus Krista the son of god.
9. And mattu said, I do not like noise but action. For if you shall not make noise into my ears when we perform our tricks, then shall I accept your challenge.
10. And Gwana said, it is not a trick. For the name of Zeusus is not like magia. But it works wonder.
11. And mattu went and selected five homos, saying, when I touch you, you shall fall flat as if you have died.
12. And so shall Gwana fear. And mattu took seven cowries in his hands.
13. And Gwana came with three homos who were converted to Krishtanite like himself. And their names were Sei and Buset and Esien.
14. And many homos watched them. And Gwana and the three homos whom he brought with him began to make noise as they came around mattu.
15. And they shouted a great noise into his ears, saying, fall down now in the name of Zeusus! And they repeated their noise in the ears of mattu.
16. And mattu cried, have you not agreed that we shall not make noise? And mattu ran towards the five homos whom he had selected.
17. And he touched them with the cowries immediately. And the five of them fell down like the stems of a banana. And they appeared as if they had died.
18. And mattu began to run towards Gwana and the three homos who were making noise.
19. And immediately, the three homos fell to the earth, kneeling down and begging for their lives. For they feared the thing which they saw, thinking that the five homos whom mattu touched with the cowries had died.
20. And Gwana was more afraid than the other three. And he shouted the blood of Zeusus continually as mattu drew closer to him, laughing mischievously.
21. And when mattu brought the cowries close to his forehead to touch his head with it, he fainted and fell down before mattu.
22. And all they who saw what had happened began to laugh when the five homos who fell down as if they had died began to rise to their feet.
23. And mattu said, I have won the trick game which myself and Gwana made. And when Gwana awoke from his unconsciousness, he knew that he had been tricked.
24. And all his life, he hated the foreigners. And he lived a quiet life, for the disappointment which he was confronted with in the name of Zeusus Krista was too great for him.

You can't change what is.

You can only disbelieve what is.
