Prayer, faith and healing

Just to add my two cents worth.My father was a Fundie years ago before persons with his mind set were given the title of Fundies.As far as Faith goes,well my dad totally believed the Bible from cover to cover.He put his Christian God above everything includeing his family and talked to his God with claims of his God talking to him.He was Charismatic in his style of Christianity with a belief in the power of God for physical healings.As a child he would take me along with him on his visitations to the Hospital.Though I dreaded these visits of terminally ill patients,I was given no choice in the matter and drug along.I guess over the years I witnessed my dad lay his hands upon over a hundred of these dieing individuals and pray the prayer of faith.I never recall not even one of them surviveing.The disease ran it's course and they died.

That evidence will never exist.There may be flim flams that appear to be authentic but the genuine will never be.It would be nice if there were a being that loved us and watched over us but that is just wishful thinking.The problem is when the wishful thinking becomes a justification for all sorts of savagery.There is no evidence of physical healing but plenty of evidence of physical killing.
