But we all know that if one person who has cancer goes into remission, it's God's divine will that is curing the cancer (even after chemo & radiation treatments).
Further lamenting on this theme:
Even my own parents, who are Baptist Fundies, don't actually pray for god to heal their friend who has MS. No no, they actually pray that god will help the scientists and researchers to discover a cure.
It has always angered me to no end. EVEN THEY know (although they would NEVER admit it) that their god is not going to cure their friend.
