Assuming that your story is 100% true, what you have here is nothing more than an unexplained cure. And "unexplained" DOES NOT equal "miracle". Maybe one day science will be able to explain how you were cured. What then?
And if you want to impress us, please provide one verified instance where a person with a missing limb was prayed for and the limb grew back. Or an instance where a paralyzed person got up and walked after being prayed for. Or an instance where a person with a missing eye was prayed for and the eye regenerated. Ya got anything like that?

Spontaneous remission is well documented. Why this happens, doctors can't yet explain. But it happens to people regardless of whether or not prayers were offered.
Quote:Or Thank an engineer or thank science,
Yes, I'll thank an engineer for buildng the bridge that I drive over every day. Your deity had nothing to do with it. And I'll thank science for the vaccine that prevents me from contracting smallpox, measles, diptheria, polio, tetanus, etc, etc... Again, your deity had nothing to do with any of this.

And you know this is true..... how?

Nice try at deflection. What you fail to realize is that most of us here (including me) were believers at some point. And we never had any sort of personal experience that would make us think your deity is real.
Quote: This isn't like science in where some smarter than you, does/is allowed to do your thinking for you,
If this is what you think, you have a poor understanding of science.
Quote:God designed a system that only rewards those who follow a prescribed path, and no one but the person following said path will be able to reap the benefits for following it.
Unsubstantiated bullshit.
I have one more question.... You obviously think "God" cured your disease. Why did he cure you and ignore all those children down at the cancer ward of the local hospital? What makes you so special?
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
