True belief in the God of creation could very well be of a great help in your shoulder pain, He could say go to the doctor that I gave the talents to help people heal, don't be stubborn of dumb and sit around in pain. [they all are blessed with talents from God, I believe this because they are always successful at helping me.]
I like to give credit for those talents to the people that spent their lives studying the work of countless others who studied and sacrificed their time and lives to overcome the religious right that held down medical science for centuries. But hey, you go ahead and thank a wizard in the sky... that's reasonable.
Godschild Wrote:What I was referring to was all the atheist that are or were here that have sad they have depression, I have a chemical imbalance in my brain that does keep me depressed from time to time and take medication to control it, I have a good Christian doctor who puts me with the best doctors to treat my ailments, they may be Christian doctors or they may not,
...And immediately after you accuse the general population of atheists of being depressed due to their atheism, you go and admit that you yourself are depressed. Does your god also get the credit for giving you your imbalance? Curious how your god STILL needs doctors to cure what he gave you. Curious how your belief structure has nothing to do with your depression but somehow atheists are depressed because of their belief structure. Got a nice hot cup of hypocrisy there godschild.
And yet you wonder why atheists get angry at you.
I was nearly always depressed when I worshiped your god. I have been occasionally depressed while NOT worshiping your god.
...and this is for everybody: Depression needs no religion or lack thereof to rear its ugly head in your life. Stop connecting the two simply to promote your filthy agenda.
Fucking pathetic.
