Then, it will be evidence of nothing. Unless you have statistics to show Christians are more likely than others to have spontaneous remissions, it's just a spontaneous remission. That happens. We don't know why does not equal god done it. There's a lot of stuff we don't know.

I hope you are one of those that causes us to scratch our heads though. You are irritating as heck with A/S/K, but I'd rather you irritating than dead.

even if this does not work to convert all of you, could you imagine what would happen if you spent the last six months thinking about something like this and was 'healed?"

This has already happened to me once, and it changed my life. Imagine if it happened to you more than once what it would tell you of God personally?

It would tell me precisely nothing. Bad things happen to good people. Good things happen to bad people. Good things happen to good people. And bad things happen to bad people. So?

I like to think I'm reasonably good people. I won the lottery by being born into a middle class family in the western world with a few brains. Lucky. I'm not as lucky as other people in the west. Unlucky. I have TMJ. Painful and unlucky. I have a good income. Lucky. And so on and so on.

I'm sure there's some much more deserving woman with cancer who is dying early somewhere in the third world who's much more moral and deserving than me.

I don't see God in this.

If you don't have cancer, I'll be happy for you, but I won't see god in it. To do that I'd have to explain that third world saint suffering for nothing.
