Guess I was wrong again. Christ christed all of that into newton, just like christers christed all of the science from their bibles.
Quote:You mean, they got the god dose and still died? You know...if my patients kept getting the jesus medicine and dying anyway, I'd start to wonder about the medicine.Khemikla Wrote:"Quick, quick, nurse, this man is going into cardiac arrest, get me the love, compassion, hope, and comfort. Make sure we say the magic words first. His life depends on it!"I know a top flight heart surgeon who prays for his patients. I have a friend who worked in surgery with a surgeon who prayed before every surgery, and knowing Adventist as I do they all pray before surgery. My wife read scripture to anyone who asked, she also prayed with them and you can bet she gave them the love, compassion and comfort they needed. She was a good nurse that worked in a critical care unit where most people did not leave, alive.
-said no competent surgeon, ever.
I doubt that their reputation in providing medicine has anything at all to do with reading people fairytales by the bedside.
Quote:The Bible is not a history book, though there is history that can be gathered from it.Some random batshit christer keeps telling me that genesis is literal. Thanks for clearing that up. Imma go tell them they're wrong about that, and that you said so.
