"Scripture can protect you from the flu," says nitwit

One of my bible-thumping YEC friends just posted this on Facebook:

I think what strikes me the most is the sheer callousness poorly masked as a peppy call for reaffirmation. It's just breathtaking.

The funny thing about this is it can be debunked with science and logic.

Faith Healing doesn't cure cancer, so why would faith prevent the flu?

Even if there was a correlation between faith and health, we know correlation DOES NOT equal causation.

Those are two rebuttals using Logic.

Two more, using science, include:
Lack of faith isn't a cause of infection, the flu happens when a foreign virus enters your body and starts to breed inside of you and releasing toxic waste into your body.

Even if you had faith in those passages, we know that faith isn't the thing that prevented the flu. Keeping your hands clean, never touching orifices or the eyes with your bare hands, distancing yourself from sick people, and having a good immune system is what prevents symptoms.

I'm pretty confident that there are many more scientific explanations that are more logical than the "God dun diddit" or "I had faith" bullcrap arguments.
