Brierley et al take big polarised political debates deep into the context of paediatric intensive care. They are concerned that 'deeply held belief in religion leads to children being potentially subjected to burdensome care'. However, it can be argued that they make a mistake in categorising this as a problem derived from religion, religious belief or the depth of religious conviction. Religion here is a red herring.
Brierley 等人将大型两极化政治辩论深入到儿科重症监护的背景中。他们担心“对宗教的坚定信仰会导致儿童可能接受繁重的治疗”。然而，可以说他们将这一问题归类为源于宗教、宗教信仰或宗教信仰程度的问题是错误的。在这里，宗教只是一个转移注意力的话题。
