A California church has spent almost a week trying to raise a 2-year-old girl from the dead

The absolute state of American evangelicals right now.

Little Olive Alayne Heiligenthal stopped breathing early Saturday morning. Her parents Andrew and Kalley Heiligenthal called 9-11 and medics tried reviving the little girl at her home and then at a hospital in Redding, California, where she was pronounced dead, The Record Searchlight reports.

So members of Bethel Church have been praying, playing music, and singing in the hopes of doing the impossible. Their efforts have taken Instagram by storm, with one post garnering more than a quarter of a million views in just six hours Tuesday.

I'm not religious. I don't think for one minute this would actually revive the little girl. But I have no problem with them trying. Maybe my belief is wrong and they are right. Maybe they could have resurrected her. I doubt it. But maybe they could. So let them try.

I don't think it's healthy to give people false hope.
