The Cross Examiner Podcast S01E07 - Faith Healing (Part 3) History Of Child Abuse And Rights

I review the history of child abuse, both religious-based abuse as well as secular abuse. Starting with the disturbing global practice of “foundation sacrifices” and running through modern times, I describe how the rights of children have not improved that much since before the United States was formed with respect to being protected from their parents’ religious-based medical neglect (aka "Faith Healing".) I discuss why politicians refused to help these children and urge attorneys to seek out cases where we can rescue these children and start to fix the damage done by notorious Christian Scientists in the Nixon administration.
