Church receives complaint over God-heals leaflet

RE: Church receives complaint over God-heals leaflet
This is exactly the sort of thing that agencies tasked with policing the medical marketplace should take issue with. Hiding behind separation of church and state is extremely sinister. If someone wants to make a health claim, they need to back it up. Its not just semantics or a matter of belief, people in need of medical attention that do not receive the proper treatment are at risk of serious illness or death. Those individuals or groups who put people in this position should be litigated. What next, do we allow human sacrifice because it's an article of faith and the participants are willing? And can I sue a preacher for malpractice, because that's the position a physician finds himself in when he/she misrepresents treatment options or botches said treatment.

Personally, I think our reluctance to seriously hammer these people is spineless and reprehensible. So you want gather together every sunday and regurgitate bronze age myths, fine. The minute you get into medicine then you've crossed the line and lose that protection. Again, just my opinion.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
