    Number of times trans people knocked on my door to convincing me or my children into questioning my gender and changing it and my views on the topic, vs the number of religious people knock on my door to try to convince me that I’m living a life of sin, that my values are shit and that I’ll burn in hell unless I convert to their religion.

    Had a buddy mention that his friend has cancer and was talking about “I don’t think this doctor is good for me I’m thinking about switching to this other one” and he stopped her and said

    “Well when are you going to give it to the real doctor. Jesus?” And went on to say basically don’t even worry about it or explore other doctors just put it all in gods hands!

    I fucking hate religion.

    To be fair, you wouldn’t know the diseases that are eradicated by prayer since they’re stripped from our timeline when looking backwards.

    There could be dozens of them!

    Maybe in January of 2020 we should have told everyone to stay home and pray for three or four months.

    What about the woke mind virus?

    Prayer has a hundred percent cure rate for that.

      Came here to say exactly this.

      But, according to Fox News, even God can’t eradicate the Woke Mind Virus. But that’s because Yahweh loves cruelty.

    You have to add “Thoughts &” for the prayers to be effective

    You’re only considering the diseases that God didn’t prevent from existing in the first place. You can’t expect him to stop all the potential diseases, can you?? He’s not Superman!

    Jokes in you we prayed for societal collaboration and progress. Profit and capitalism seems like a major side effect though 😵‍💫

    Science is a social pursuit that shouldn’t be credited solely to some priestly class of “scientists”. How many people have prayed for the sick over the years? That’s a major foundation for public support of scientific research.

      Not in the sense of “oh, He’s almighty, He can bend and break laws of nature at will, He just never ever does this in a controlled experiment to accentuate the faith element of religion”.

      Otherwise, they come in an extreme contradiction just about everywhere.

          "Two departments of forensic medicine examined the sample independently. At Wrocław Medical University, Prof. Tadeusz Dobosz collected 15 samples and systematically excluded bacterial contamination — including Serratia marcescens, a bacterium that produces red pigment and has historically accounted for “bleeding host” reports — as well as fungal growth and chemical contamination. His team found fiber structures most similar to human heart tissue, though the results were described as inconclusive.

          At the Pomeranian Medical University in Szczecin, Prof. Mirosław Parafiniuk conducted histopathological examination and DNA extraction. His analysis identified cross-striated muscle fragments most similar to human heart muscle, with alterations that often appear during agony. Mitochondrial DNA sequencing indicated human origin. Prof. Parafiniuk noted that the material was degraded and of microscopic size, and that such tissue could come from any mammal.

          Dr. Barbara Engel, a cardiologist on the diocesan investigation commission, reported that UV microscopy with an orange filter identified the tissue as human myocardium. She noted that the blood found on the Host had not been tested, and that only human DNA had been confirmed."
