Faith is a measure of irrationality

[ronedee]

I didn't ask for miracles.

Neither did I ask for your experiences.

Then why comment on them?

What do you mean 'it works for me'. What does it do?

Do you really care?

I asked for something that faith has discovered, a single fact, like the discovery of electricity. But now I realise that you haven't even said what faith actually does in order for it to work.

Do you want examples of faith? Or faith in God?

You see god in dog shit too then? What about flesh eating bacteria? What about cancer?

I even see Him in you.

So its just one giant argument from ignorance.

The ignorance is on your part, not mine.

I'm sure if you described these 'miracles' to us, we may be able to enlighten you as to what caused them. At the very least, we would come to the conclusion that we don't know how it happened.

So, you've made my point. There is no reason to tell you about Faith.

You mean a defibrillator? It just appeared out of thin air before your eyes?

No. I believe it was a VAD, which is only used for operations, not emergencies. But it's useless, and painful to explain anything to you.

No, I would think you were lying or mistaken.

Rythmn... I hope you are seeing why I didn't want to relate any of my experiences here. There is/was no reason.

A defibrillator needed in a hospital?!?! What manner of nonsense is this!

Thanks doctor... I'll relate that to the hospital for you.

P.S. for Ronedee: that was sarcasm.

Thanks! I love sarcasm when my mom's life is the brunt of it!

So a defibrillator being found in a hospital just in time to revive your mother, is a miracle?
Well if you think that is a miracle, what isn't a miracle?
When you've lost your keys and you pray to god then find them, is that a miracle? How about when you pray for your favourite sports team to win?

Surely a real miracle would have been your mother not having a heart attack in the first place.

Again doctor... it wasn't a defrib machine needed.

I don't normally pray for a bunch of overpaid assholes tossing balls around.

And I would've prayed for my mom to NOT have a heart attack "IF" I knew she was going to have one!

Thanks again for all your great responses to my mothers care and well being.
