you have said several times that the parents should decide the fate of a child in relation to the use of life saving blood. your new comment seems to contradict this.
it basically takes it out of the parents hands now doesn't it? You can
still have views against the state doing that; however, if you act against
the state which you have the power to do that, but you must be willing
to accept what occurs when you do, it will come with cost.

that was used to take away what the parents wanted they just did it.
The law is something we should obey, if the government sets some
standard that goes against my faith, then I'll pay the price for not obeying
the law. I never said I want to do away with government laws, but those
laws should not take away our rights. The age of consent is a common
thing among men. I think the government should set that in my opinion.
