My cat's breath smells like cat food.
Which is pretty impressive since I don't own a cat.

Anecdotes like this are very common. Share your own example of christian medical "advice".
Read Chapter 5 of Genesis, that will surely put you to sleep. It works for me.

I own three. I can honestly say their breath doesn't smell very nice.

We have three. Love them all. Each has their own little personality.
Yes.. snakes can have personalities. Peko, the one she's holding, likes to have her head petted. Lyko, on the other hand, hates it. And Crisco, our albino ball just likes to scare people with his little beady red eyes.
We take them to schools and educate the kids and some of the teachers. The kids get a real kick out of it.
My dads friend had a Python he raised.
One day he awoke to find the Python stretched out next to him on the bed, really straight, he thought that was odd and asked a vet what he thought it was doing.
Turns out it was measuring to see if he'd fit in its tummy.
To a python you are a meal it hasn't had yet.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

When I got badly (really, seriously badly) banged up at age 17, my great auntie told me later that I wouldn't have lived if she hadn't prayed for me.
I mentioned that the surgeons and high transfusions had more to do with my survival. For the rest of her life, she never EVER spoke another single word to me.

- They eat cat food;
- They walk around in kitty litter, then lick their paws;
- They lick their butts.

Your mum's right, I suggest Ezekiel 23:20;
Quote:There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.
Rub one out to that and you'll sleep like a newborn babe.

Heh, nice with the Ezekiel 23:20.
I probably should mention, that the anecdote in the OP isn't my own situation, but that of another person. My mother is much worse (Spent hundreds of dollars at a psychic trying to find out if her lost cat was angry with her)

Yeah, I frequent the site, there's some serious facepalm and groan inducing material there.
