Otherwise, we'd all be committing suicide to get to heaven faster. Then you'd call us a death cult, so we can't win either way in the eyes of stupid atheists.That's not what the OP was saying. He was pointing out that Christians will pray for a badly ill or injured person to recover, instead of seeing them on their way to their reward.
And if you could commit suicide and punch your ticket to heaven immediately and spend an eternity next to god, would you really care what anyone thought of your religion? You sound like you might need some convincing, still.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
