Side note, does it count as a shower thought when it was conceived while sitting on the toilet? Do we have toilet-sitting-thoughts communities?

God heals, but always within the exact parameters of what is possible by the modern medicine of that exact era.

Amputees unfortunately can still go fuck themselves.

Yeah I don't understand religions that view medicine with scepticism but practice prayer with complete confidence. If I was religious I'd see modern medicine as a mericle. We can cure most cancers easily. Granted not all cancers but most.

I'm not religious, yet I spend a lot of time in church. Consider this: many of life's problems are solved by brainpower. I get about 90 minutes a week of uninterrupted time to sit and think about anything I want. Plus, people sing to me while I think.
