Faith healing couple acquitted of manslaughter charges! How can this happen?
#15
RE: Faith healing couple acquitted of manslaughter charges! How can this happen?
In its most simplest definition from my former experience as an evangelist prayer is defined simply as talking to God.You can praise him in your prayers and also make request as well, as long as your requests are reasonable and within his will.Knowing his will is a whole different matter altogether.In my view as a 14 year atheist is that prayer has no effect other than to serve as a placebo.If the laying on of hands or personal communication with God makes your headache go away or makes you feel at peace after a stressful day then it's a placebo.As far as making cancer and aids miraculously disappear I think it's nothing more than delusional as seen in the case of that poor child that payed with her life for her parents ignorance and superstition.
There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
