[quote]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?[/quote]Then I guess "science" will have to move on to the next "unexplained event" and the next, and the next, and the next, and the next..." As long as i live I continue to walk and talk with God. This keeps adding to the over all total experience that for me demonstrates on going "proof" that God is alive and well in my life. By the time "science" catches up to all that I have witnessed and experienced I will have been long since dead and will have first hand knoweledge at that point anyway.
[quote]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.[/quote]what about a severed ear?
[quote] Or an instance where a paralyzed person got up and walked after being prayed for.[/quote] These occourances happened all of the time in scripture.
[quote] Or an instance where a person with a missing eye was prayed for and the eye regenerated. Ya got anything like that? [/quote]I don't know if the eye was actually missing but there are a few instances where the blind was made to see again.
[quote]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]Do you have proof that "prayer" had nothing to do with the remission? Even if that person did not admit for praying for themselves do you honestly think someone somewhere did not pray for them?
Brother, all cry out when faced with death even if they can not admit it to others.

And you know this is true..... how?[/quote]
The bible, Tells me so...
[quote]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]I have no doubt that any of you have ever known God. The question is, do you want to, and what price are you willing to pay to get to know Him?
[quote]If this is what you think, you have a poor understanding of science.[/quote]
[quote]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?[/quote]I Don't know, but I'll be damned if I don't spend my life or rather the extention of life I have been given, in His service trying to pay back what He has seen fit to give to me.
