Recently, Indiana's Child Services were called in to deal with a
7-year-old boy who came to school one day with 36 bruises on his body.
His mother has been charged with child abuse. The mother's lawyer, for
puzzling reasons, is asking for the case to be dismissed under the
state's Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), because the “guiding
values" behind defendant Kin Park Thaing's abuse of her son were
supposedly Christian.
