Not being fair to their religion????

[kevinscales]

Wow these guys are idiots. I mean believing in a god is fail, but believing it will heal your children if you ask nicely is retarded.

[AtheistinFundyLand]

@kevinscales These are true believers. I've been one.

[jlc012]

And people say religion is harmless, anyone out of touch with reality is bound to hurt or get hurt.

reminds me of derren brown's "miracles for sale"

[holyhell5050]

Excellent.

[phillozoph50]

If you believe that everything is a God's will(illness,disease),healing by using medical care actually means going against God's will.Therefore I don't understand retarded believers.Fuck the God,only science can help us.God is a bronze age myth,his time is long over.

It has nothing to do with their faith, or their right to believe, or their right to speech. Wanting to be rich is one thing; robbing a bank to get there is a different matter. They robbed someone of something; the fact it is their child matters not. I can leave ice on a sidewalk outside an establishment I own and pray over people as they walk by that they don't fall. I should be drug into court if they do fall however; even more so If I prevent them from getting first aid after they fall.

If you want to jump off a building because you believe god will give you wings, thats fine, but if you want to throw me off a building because you believe god will give me wings, not fine.

Faith healers, scam artists who benefit by receiving money for their "service".

[TheSkepticalIdealist]

Take their kids away, idiots.

[hildegain]
