I have seen a young woman heal within 30 seconds of a Christian blessing (I'll let you know the religion if you ask me). It really happens, and on more than one occasion. But for those who don't have faith, use the drug store I guess.

I would like to know some details on what you believe you saw. Also I would like to recomend to you a test, why not purposely get sick, and then let god heal you on live television for all to see? You could prove to the world that god loves you, or at least martyr yourself for the cause. In fact I would like to see this experiment in a mass form, why not gather all your christian friends together in a room, infect yourselves with anthrax, and then let God heal all of you. That's the best idea i ever heard if i do say so myself, either you prove beyond a doubt that God exist, or you wipe yourselves off the planet, you go to heaven and the world is better off without you. Everybody wins!!!

Faith Healing should only be practiced on adults...not children

We just had a case in Oregon where a couple basically got off for the death of their daughter. They believed that their faith could heal their daughter and there was nothing wrong with her. That the cyst on her neck that was blocker her airways and hindering her ability to eat was normal. It amazes me how people can become so blinded by their faith that they are ok with losing a child. I guess that is why they have so many children, so that if one or two die, they still have eight or nine more. Minor's should be required to go to a doctor as they don't have the ability to make the choice for themselves. If you are an adult and you feel that faith healing will work to cure your cancer, go for it. One less nutbar that I have to shake my head at in disgust.

No one in their right mind could possibly argue the validity of faith healing in comparison with modern day science. Get your head out of your ass. The end.

I think that if there IS a God and if we ARE created in His image, then we should act it, and THINK.

I believe that if there is a God then He would be truly disappointed in us not using our own resources first before always begging for immediate help and healing.
