Again I ask. Any evidence?
You ignore calls for evidence
But since my wife is one of those 'incompetent" doctors, I would like to see your evidence for these wild-ass, ridiculous assertions.
taking a child to a hospital is endangering them because of the incompetant care that takes place within those walls.
this business of taking sick people to a hospital instead of praying is inane since it has been demonstrated to NOT WORK> suchthinking works both ways as MORE people die in hospitals or under doctors' care than by praying for them.
by the way, prayer for healing does work,

Still no evidence
You attack what you don't know or understand, but still you provide NO evidence for you assertions.
she is fair game
This sums up your petty, childish attempts at discussion on this board. ALl you can do is make personal attacks. I have not seen one iota of evidence out of you. Just hate and utter vileness.

Actually, no
NOTICE it says 'shall not prohibit the practice...'
You might think this is nitpicky, but that isn't the words in the Constitution. One would think that someone trying to make an argument like yours would at least know the words. The words are actually.
quote:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;

Nice to have actually quote
If you are going to put something into quote, you need to make sure you have it correct. Otherwise it is a paraphrase and not a quote. I realize you belong to a belief that intellectualism is bad. But what you are doing is intellectual laziness.
Would you nitpick if someone altered a quote form the bible? If you are going to use the Constitution for an argument, get the words correct. By using the wrong words you look lazy and stupid.

Re: Actually, no
i have never said it was wrong to go to doctors.
You have said it is insane. You have said doctors are quacks. So yes you have.
this business of taking sick people to a hospital instead of praying is inane since it has been demonstrated to NOT WORK
wrong. they die in hospitals because of bad treatments, quacks, equipment failures etc.,

Out of context?
Not at all. I looked at the context. I gave the actual quotes. Show they are out of context. On one hand you claim the medical industry is incompetent and responsible for many deaths on the other hand you have no problem using doctors when it suits your needs.

this is a retarded and absurd answer
As the parent of a mentally handicapped son, this is a very offensive term. Do you speak like this to people in your church? Do you know how painful it is to hear someone call him a retard? It is a term I would expect from a middleschooler, not an educated adult.
You might try using adult language if you want to be taken seriously. Well it might help a little.

retarded people are just that retarded, some thing has slowed their thinking ability and developement but if you are going to get upset over little things like that then i have no respect for you at all.
You have been told that the term is offensive and yet you still continue to use it. It is not a little thing, it is a derogatory term like nigger. But I see you like to preach about your god, but have no respect for the feelings of others.
Please explain how you used the word retard about his comment in the definitions you provided.
Not only are your morals questionable, you are a liar also.
