要はタイトルで尽きる。オーストラリアのとあるカルトが「おおその病気は神が癒すことであろうぞ」と教え、真に受けた親が西洋現代医療を拒否、注射だのしないですませて―子供が死んだ。
「Fourteen members of an Australian religious group have been convicted of killing an eight-year-old diabetic girl who was denied insulin for almost a week.
Elizabeth Struhs died at home in 2022, having suffered from diabetic ketoacidosis, which causes fatally high blood sugar.
The court heard that Elizabeth's treatment was withheld because the group, known as the Saints, opposed medical care, believing God would heal her.」
教団および親は無罪を主張。
BBC Australian sect members guilty of causing girl's death 2 days ago

ただまあこれは、彼らの聖なる法ではどうかしらんが、世俗の法では確実に未必の故意以上になりましょうね。
「Her father Jason Struhs and the group's leader Brendan Stevens were on trial for murder but were convicted of the lesser charge of manslaughter. Twelve other members, including Elizabeth's mother and brother, were also convicted of manslaughter. All had pleaded not guilty.」
末端極小、零細泡沫教団で、精々20名・3家族程度の構成員しかいない。貴重な信者がこれで失われたわけだが、なんというかもうちょっと理性的になれないものか。まあこういうのは発生しますわね、ええ。
「The Saints are not affiliated with an established church in Australia and have roughly two dozen members from three families.」

貴方の記事を読んで昔あったことを思い出しました。
日本人の妻とカナダ人の夫で、カナダへ里帰りの夫婦と息子3歳くらい、そこで息子が発熱、ちちょう熱と言って朝は下がっているのに午後から高熱になるそれ。旦那の親はカルトの一種で祈れば治ると医者も薬も与えず、毎朝熱がないときは祈りが効いたと心配ない。日本人の妻は1週間同じ状態が続いて治らないので家族全部の反対を押し切って医者に見せ、抗生物質で治癒しました。恐ろしいカルト

拝み屋さんや占い師さんはうまいこと医者につなげるのだとも聞きますが、新興カルトはそのへん、下手みたいですねー…。
死んだり、下手に障害のこしたりしたら、そのぶん顧客が減るのに、なんでこう不合理な行動をとるものか…とも思うのです。
その息子さんは救われて幸運でしたねえ。
