Don't these people think that maybe God's healing comes through DOCTORS? Just like God provides food through farmers and shelter by carpenters?

Darwin was right.

I always think it's puzzling when someone posts that they've had some close encounter with death while riding, but "God was looking out for them" and they survived. Isn't it more likely that S/He was deliberately scaring/harming them? If God was looking out for them why did they have the incident in the first place? God was distracted?!?

This is what happens when people have too much faith in fiction, and too little grasp of the real world.

No. Because, like all overly-religious idiots, they believe they know the mind of God.

That is what I would like to call the squid of the Christian community... not that many crazy people, but the ones who are always end up in the news making the rest of community look bad.





(like squids on sportbikes if no one made that connection.)

It was once explained to me that the devil caused the problem in the first place.

Meh.

Because if nothing bad ever happened, no one would ever grow or experience anything new. Plus just how boring would life be?

It would be a constant distraction. Just think, if you were God, there would be hot 18 year old girls taking showers 24/7 since the world is round.
