Is Accepting Christian Evidence Special Pleading?

[Huggy Bear]

For those that don't want to watch Huggy's BS, essentially, in 1958, Marilyn Hickey was 'healed' by evangelical pastor William Branham.  Doctors had told Hickey she wouldn't be able to conceive, but he laid hands upon her and invoked Christ, yadda yadda yadda.

She wasn't 'healed' until 10 years later, when she actually got pregnant.

People like Huggy think this is the power of Christ performing a miracle.  Those of us with functioning brains realize that medical science in the late 1950s was still pretty sketchy, and that there's a far better chance that the doctor were simply wrong in her case than anything miraculous happening.  False positives are, and have always been, a thing.

And, of course, if faith healing was actually a thing, it would be used on a wide scale.  Why have doctors if holy people can cure you?  Surely there are people just as devout as Hickey and/or Branham that haven't had their maladies healed simply through ritual.

So, yeah, it's dumb and idiotic, and doesn't hold up to any kind of scrutiny.  Par for the course.

That post was in response to:

Here's the biggest problem with your gawd claims. You have no eyewitness testimony.

I was simply providing eyewitness testimony, if you like evidence with more scientific scrutiny, I can provide that also.

I find it quite interesting that you chose to try to explain away the situation without know what condition Marilyn Hickey suffered from, after all she clearly stated she suffered from an inherited condition that caused infertility, one such as being born with no functioning uterus which affects 1 in 5000 women.

Therefore If no functioning uterus is present it doesn't take a genius to figure out that one cannot conceive, and a doctor would have no problems stating that fact.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%BCllerian_agenesis

Müllerian agenesis is a congenital malformation characterized by a failure of the Müllerian duct to develop, resulting in a missing uterus and variable degrees of vaginal hypoplasia of its upper portion. Müllerian agenesis (including absence of the uterus, cervix and/or vagina) is the cause in 15% of cases of primary amenorrhoea. Because most of the vagina does not develop from the Müllerian duct, instead developing from the urogenital sinus along with the bladder and urethra, it is present even when the Müllerian duct is completely absent.

Because ovaries do not develop from the Müllerian ducts, affected women might have normal secondary sexual characteristics but are infertile due to the lack of a functional uterus. However, motherhood is possible through use of gestational surrogates.

That being said, would you concede that a woman who has no functioning uterus yet conceived a child, can be referred to a miraculous?
