DRAFT

1. Definition of religion.

Religion is a collection of cultural systems, belief systems, and worldviews that establishes symbols that relate humanity to spirituality and, sometimes, to moral values.{1} Many religions have narratives, symbols, traditions and sacred histories that are intended to give meaning or to explain the origin of life or the universe. They tend to derive morality, ethics, religious laws or a preferred lifestyle from their ideas about the cosmos and human nature.

2. What is the fanaticism?
Fanaticism is a belief or behavior involving uncritical zeal, particulary for an extreme religious or political cause or in some cases sports, or with obsessive enthusiasm for a pastime or hobby. A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject, so this definition displays very strict standards and little tolerance for contrary ideas or opinions. 
The behavior of a Fans with a lot of enthusiasm for a given subject is differentiated from the behavior or a fanatic by the fanatic's violation of prevailing social norms, the fan's behavior may be judged as eccentric, it does not violate such norms.
The religion  is  obviously  a human right, but  it shouldn't be the most important into the human life, because in the past  it would  make much pain, and has taken millions of lives, due to the negligence of fanatic religious people.

3. What about Amy’s case..

Amy was a little girl with blond hair and bubbly ways. Amy's parents are Christian Scientist, and unfortunately,  they decided to try to heal the child with prayer rather than seek a doctor's, this situation ending with the Amy's dead. They had better make another choose, but didn't. Now Amy's parents were scheduled to go on trial, on charges of third-degree murder and felony child abuse. They have maintained that prosecutors wanted to violate their constitutional right of religious freedom, and, that treated their daughter with proven method of healing.

3.1 Different point of views

• The Christian Scientist said that they would was doing any different thing than the medical treatment used to do.
• The Medical Examiner concluded that medical treatment up just hours before her death probably could have saved Amy.
• The legal community, said: " The children have a right to live healthily and be brought up to make their own religious decisions ".

4.Conclusion

Is important say that the personal decisions should make it like individual and social people, always trying to respect another lives and the different point of views.
And modestly I think I have always believed that any kind of truth imposed, even if done with tact, diplomacy and sensitivity, always corresponds to subtle forms of fanaticism. 

I think that the fanatic is someone who is convinced that just believing in God and living a moral life is simply not enough. They feel compelled to engage in behaviors that demonstrate his faith. They believe that the magnitude of those behaviors must be commensurate with the strength of his faith. The more they believe, the more they have to do to show it, as a result we can see cases like Amy where the faith won to the human logic.
