Would you kindly a) stop responding to things I didn't say and b) making stupidly long posts in order to appeal to emotion, and instead make an actual logical argument for the existence of God? You know, ones with explicit premises, syllogisms, and conclusions?

  • My wife had cancer in her colon, krohns disease, and siliac disease, she was prayed over and received healing, no open sores, no trace of cancer in her body, no more pain, and she can eat whatever she wants. This was all achieved through prayer to God in the name of Jesus Christ.

    It's a good thing you're not a member, so I can tell you that you're a damn moron.

  • If God existed, then he should have stopped Hurricane Katrina or the Japanese tsunami that claimed thousands of lives, unless this "God" of yours is a big asshole to people that aren't the "Majority".

  • Just about everyone prays for their life-threatening diseases to be alleviated. So, when one person is very lucky and actually is cured, I'm supposed to believe that this is evidence for God?

  • Then what healed her? All 3 were incurable.

  • Let's take a look at the doctor's notes and interview her specialists before we jump to "God did it."

  • Clearly they are not incurable, judging by the fact that they were cured. Or you could be a liar. If the situation you described is in fact impossible by any natural means, then there are two obvious conclusions I could draw: God exists and he/she cured her, or you're lying about the situation. Considering that there are a lot of liars out there, I find it easier to believe the latter.
