The shared knowledge in society is when an individual is sick he must seek medical attention. On the other hand, the society were the couples come from (The Church of the First Born) refutes this idea of medical care and instead seeks cure by Faith and Religion due to the Holy text that they believe in.

In the past when human weren't as civilised or modernised, Faith and Religion shaped their lives and daily routines. Enormous inventions in the field of Science by various scientists discovered diseases and cures to them. For example, Bill Gates is funding the eradication of Polio in the world by vaccination but before people who got Polio often died due to lack of medicinal care because they relied on Faith and Religion. Today with all these breakthroughs in medicine, The Bellows situation is easily treated by medicine but the method they chose is unethical due to vast improvments in medical care.

Knowledge in this RLS is gained from a holy text. False interpretation of the Holy text misled The Bellows to pray over their sick son instead of medically treating him. Faith is the main WOK in this RLS were The Bellows depended on their faith towards God instead of Reason. Also Language is a WOK in this RLS since they interpreted the Holy text falsely.

In the els, the couple based their decision on their believe and their religion but linking to personal knowledge it is common sense that religion alone won't provide health and that medicine can also be considered as gift from good. since all knowledge in the world are based on religion and believe;c for example natural science.

the world changes throughout time and with it change knowledge changes. Nowadays one may consider the bible as a solution to connect with goods, but not all of them believe that beleiving i god alone will provide us with health. now days with Natural science devlopment it became a powerful tool in providing us with health; where in the past there health was based on religion. it is as the religion is the base that started natural science. the couple still in the past, there ideas are outdated. but if there actions where made in the past it will sound reasonable and that is because of the weak knowledge in natural science.

it is common sense that if you are sick you go the doctors to get checked and treated and that is what is known by everyone but the bellows knew that they shouldn't go based on their personal knowledge and their beliefs and they based the decision of depending on faith healing instead of medical care

medicine and healing has developed massively through out the years and a lot of sicknesses that were incurable are curable now and that is due to the advance in science and technology and medicine. the bellows son treatment was very simple for doctors but the family didn't want the help of developed medicine and hospitals and used an old and method of healing based on their belief and that led the the death of their son

# data[].attributes.body
the bellows got their knowledge from their faith in their religion and holy book that they believe in and based on their interpretations they decided not seek medical help and they thought that praying for their son would cure him and that is an ethical issue because of their faith and belief their son died.

In the RLS, there are two conflicting beliefs. The Bellews, and those in their community, share the belief in faith healing, whereas the law and others who are not apart of the Church of the Firstborn are opposed to their belief. Each individuals personal opinion and also their education (whether medical education or religious) influences their belief and point of view. Readers will also agree or disagree with whichever side of the conflict resonates most with them. For example, an atheist doctor might be extremely against the Bellews.

Religion has always been a fundamental aspect of almost all societies, and has dictated how people have lived. As the world has become more modernized and interconnected, there have been additions and changes made to accommodate. In the RLS, the Bellews are using faith healing rather than science and medicine. They are relying on older, unfounded methods rather than modern methods.

In this AOK, knowledge is gained through faith, religious texts, and by following religious leaders. The Bellews used their faith to determine their approach towards their son's illness. They use evidence from their religious text, using the interpretation of their Church's priest (a religious leader).

The family belongs to a specific group which shares its beliefs, and in this RLS those beliefs are directly conflicting the law, which views the Church's practices as unethical because, in this case, it led to a child's death.

In this RLS, the Church of the First Born has taken a literal interpretation of the verse "The sick should be prayed over and anointed with oil". The article quotes a cult expert who said: "They take this verse out of context and take it to mean this is the only thing you can do while sick".

Faith is an essential WOK especially among the Religious Knowledge Systems as they build trust with God and religion, through holy texts, and trusting their religious leaders. Throughout History, dominate groups has always limited the minority. Similarly with the court and The Church of the First Born or The Church of The First Born and Austin. As Austin was not permitted to reason his medical condition, and thus influence his decision on seeking faith healing.

Society is made up of different ethnic groups with their own religious beliefs. This is respected among the community as it gives a well formulated structure who follow their own set of beliefs and rules. However among the majority/dominate they believe that medical attention is more important than faith. Claiming that the minority (Church of First Born) interpreted the Bible "incorrectly" as they took it the literal meaning (Language), this resulted the death of a 16 year old boy from the Bellew family.

Churches such as "The Church of the First Born" who use the Holy Bible as their guide in this world, interpreted the text differently than the other churches. Their interpretation of the text gave them a unique impression that they should be treated with prayer only without any medication.

The Church of the First Born follows the holy Bible like other Churches. However, the group's unique interpretation of the text led it to become isolated in the way its followers deal with illnesses.

The Bellew family is, by being part of the Church of the First Born, accepted by a community. Additionally, the family's religious beliefs help its members behave correctly in society, which makes them highly respected citizens. An exception is this case, where religious beliefs were applied incorrectly, resulting in the death of the 16 year-old boy.

In society, there is a prevailing law that the voice of the majority silences that of the minority, or the individual. An Individual who acts not accordingly (to the Shared Knowledge) may become subjected to punishments and/or seclusion. To avoid becoming alienated by the group, individuals will follow the majority, even if their Personal Knowledge may conflict with the general opinion. The Bellews might have chosen faith healing in fear of being rejected by the Church or even God. Their case is complex, since the family is under the umbrella of two institutions, the religion and the government, with conflicting "Shared Knowledges". By bowing to one of them, the family exposed themselves to the attacks of the other.

In the past, when mankind's knowledge on other AOKs was scarce, Religion was the most influential AOK in almost all aspects of life, including health. However, in the course of history, advances were made in other fields of knowledge, which slowly reduced the influence of Religious Knowledge Systems. Nowadays, Natural Sciences controls medicine and Human Sciences and Ethics govern the laws of many nations. The family Bellews' decision might have been entirely reasonable in the past, but it conflicts with modern ideas.

(+ "anointed with oil" could have been the most advanced medical procedure at the time the Bible was written, but the procedure is obslete now. This adds to the idea that the family's decision does not coincide with modern ideas.)

In Religious Knowledge Systems, knowledge is often gained through reading the holy text and/or seeking guidance from religious leaders and groups (and the Creator). Faith is an important WOK here; trusting your God and religion. However, some religious groups tend to be authoritative and limit the way of how their followers can gain knowledge (thus limiting number of WOKs). This is what happened to the Bellews: The Church of the First Born did not allow them to use Reason (a WOK often associated with Natural Sciences) to influence their decision making. Based on their knowledge gained from Faith, the Bellews chose not to seek medical

proof is used daily in our life, in law and in scientific research and more. The belief of faith healing is accepted but rather contradicts with the need of proof that i works, as so far cases of children dying because they are not taken to the doctor. and science has ceintific proof and real ife proof of healing people. so you may have religious beliefs but not to the point that it costs peoples lives.

science contradicts with a very sensetive case of religious belief. but the reason human kind has evolved this far is by using science, and it got us so far, belief of that prayer can heal is very accepted; but if soon enough it doesnt work you cant leave all people to die, or else all the money spent on research is gone for nothing.

language does play a role when it comes to interprating the bible. so one must be careful and must well study the english he is reading. so the religious group the parents are part of took the versee in the bible " the sick should be prayed over and appointed with oil" very literally to its meaning, but holy books have more in them than just the literal meaning

This RLS touches an important situation where faith contradicts knowledge and science. this religious group believes that the only way of healing an ill person is by praying. On the other hand, the common way of healing an ill person is by getting them medical treatment but the religious group believes that healing a person this way is going against the will of God. This is important due to the sheer amount of children dying to easily curable diseases because of their faith. For example, the diabetic 9 year old child, and the infant who died 9 hours after his premature home birth.

- The language used to record the laws of a religion is sometimes vague and thus can be open to interpretation. Additionally, the texts are written in a form which is not used by the common people. Therefore, many individuals receive religious guidance verbally from certain individuals who convey their interpretation of the original texts. Different sub-groups and communities of one religion form this way.

- Metaphors are often used to convey ideas in a form that is understandable to the audience. However this may cause misunderstandings as the text may be interpreted both metaphorically and literally. Additionally, these metaphors may have been written to suit the context at the time of the text conception and thus may not cover the advances humankind has made, especially in other AOKs. This may lead to groups limiting their ability to solve problems.

- Believing in a religion helps give structure and meaning to your life, through following a set of beliefs and rules. It allows you to feel as living in part of a community of people who share your ideas. However, this might get you into conflict with other groups and beliefs system as well as the non-religious laws.

- Following a religion heals your spirit and soul, but it may not always beneficial for your physical well-being. In cases where quick and decisive intervention is needed, medical attention is more adequate than turning to faith.
