What condescending nonsense. So instead, we should encourage the depressed person to continue suppressing their intellectual faculties despite the fact that their imaginary friend "GOD" has failed to see them through the depression? At some point we should be honest with them, ya know since we usually appreciate others who are honest with us, and say, "Look, maybe God isn't working to heal your depression because God isn't real. But once you own up to the facts of reality, including why you're depressed, then maybe you can find the real root of your issues and deal with them."

what truth? yours. sad. Its why I wont join the atheist religion. atheist pastors like you. Anf Crap like this. You dont really give a flying fuk about the person.

if a person has a broken leg you cast it you stupid fuk, until they can walk on their own.

Oh, I see, you're one of those morons who thinks truth is equivalent to personal preference.

Hey, if the sick at least feel like they're being healed by magical crystals, or the sweet blood of Jesus, who's to tell them that there's actual therapy and medicine available?
