Did they/you utilize health care?

"God uses doctors too."

Funny thing about that - doctors have sufficient medical training to heal the sick. I'm unaware of any relevant statistics, but I doubt the success rate of atheist doctors is very much different than that of theist doctors. So, it seems that the success or failure of a medical procedure is manifestly not dependent on whether God puts his finger in it or not.

In other words, when it comes to medicine (and everything else) God is a useless hypothesis.
