Houston Community Religious Exemption and the Death of Matthew Swan Case Analysis

Help me study for my Philosophy class. I’m stuck and don’t understand.

Write 500 words on the following question:

Is it morally justifiable to have religious-exemption laws, allowing parents to refuse medical care for their children?

Your response should include:

A. A brief summary of the main problem and relevant background facts and a clear statement of your position on the case. (see item number 1 in Guidelines for a Case Study Analysis in Burnor & Raley, pp. xxiii)

B. An argument or two in support of your position on the case, which includes a moral principle. (see items 3 & 4 in Guidelines for a Case Study Analysis in Burnor & Raley, pp. xxiii-xxiv)

C. Describe and respond to at least one possible objection to your position. (see item 5 in Guidelines for a Case Study Analysis in Burnor & Raley, pp. xxiv)

Use in-text citations for any quotations you use. A work’s cited page will not be necessary. Do not use outside sources other than the textbook and the sources cited in the case study. The focus is not on research, but on moral argumentation and theory.
