What you, personally believe about her is irrelevant here. She’s a fraud. She’s a televangelist who rips people off. This is a demonstrable fact, and I have other sources if just the one is not enough for you. So, let’s go over what we have again with this updated information:Lol, everything is fake.
1. A priest who says he saw light.
2. A group of people, including a known religious con-artist, who claim they saw a light
3. A photo of light.
Again I ask...where is your evidence that the light in the photo is god?
Completely irrelevant, Huggy.
The guy was a public figure, you can find photographs of him as a young man in a wheel chair, seeing how he received a spinal injury at 18 and spent the next 7 years of his life bedridden, so the best you can do is claim the man has been faking the injury for 66 years?

Has Huggy found Marilyn Hickey’s missing uterus yet?
You do realize that condition is quite common in women right? Joke if you want to...

Quote:MRKH is a congenital disorder that affects the female reproductive tract. Congenital means that it’s acquired during development and present at birth. About 1 in every 5,000 female babies has this condition.
Quote:Girls with MRKH have normal ovaries and fallopian tubes. Most often the uterus is absent or tiny.

Before this particular article/advertisement, he had another about how Sargon pills ‘healed’ him from everything ranging from fatigue to constipation (Sargon was nothing but snake oil). So, that’s three claims of healing - two religious, one pharmaceutical via a known fake medicine. Moreover, the account Huggy is referencing changed considerably as time passed from the so-called healing:Ah, referencing believe the sign again I see...

It should be noted that the sources I’ve used are sympathetic to miraculous claims. They think the stories are false, and that Upshaw wasn’t genuine.
Ultimately, there’s no reason to believe any of it.
Btw I didn't know that being healed of constipation was an medical imposibility...

Quote:By 1933 the Federal Trade Commission had called the G. F. Willis company to task: [b]the major ingredients of Sargon were grain alcohol and a laxative. In stipulation proceedings, G.F. Willis conceded that it’s advertising of Sargon was misleading. The Journal of the American Medical Association printed an abstract of the stipulation:[/b]
So a LAXATIVE cured constipation... who would of thought?

Quote:William Branham retold the story of Congressman Upshaw's healing many times. However, over time the story changed considerably so that by 1954 it included a vision of a brown suit, and a "Thus Saith The Lord" statement spoken by Brother Branham to William Upshaw directly over the pulpit, and not as communicated by Brother LeRoy Kopp.
Notice a skeptic website (don't let the name fool you) can't deny the event happened, the best they could come up with is that there was some discrepancy between Branham's and Upshaw's telling of the story.
William Branham was a guest speaker at many different churches across the nation, he didn't tell total stranger about visions and things of that nature for understandable reasons, he reserved those details for his home church.
All this show it that you atheists are getting desperate.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
