The person who approved this show gets shot in the chest. (It's punishment for approving the show in the first place). BUT he gets a surgeon to operate on him.
THEN
Dr. Oz gets shot by the same gun in the chest. He gets a priest to pray for him..
Let's see who survives.
LOL! I bet if he got shot he'd do as Filipino psychic surgeon Tony Agpaoa when he got appendix inflammation: he went to a hospital in San Francisco to be treated by western medicine while ranting against the same to his foolish followers.
I just wonder who fules this crap to mainstream? hmm
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I can make a 30 minute show about faith healing.
The first minute would be, "It's bullshit".
The next twenty nine minutes would be dancing animals.

Yeah, Valkyrie, you work at the hospital so please be so kind and tell us how many times a year, or maybe even a month, do you or any of the other doctors in the hospital get to say to the patient: "Good news! We don't need to operate on you. All your injuries have been healed by your family's prayers!"?

Zero.
Zilch.
Even the most religiously devout of my patients over the years have not denied the fact that they need surgery to deal with their health problems.
On the occasions I've been invited to pray with a family I've politely declined.
