Yeah, they’d rather see these people dead than to see the country continue its slide away from their beliefs.

Now, if this school full of kids and faculty blows up because of a particular book - the bible - you can be sure they’d be outraged.

Reply to An Ozarks church leader claims prayer regrew a woman's toes. Others aren't so sure. by gooddealjoe

Let’s assume for the sake of argument that prayer DID regrow this woman’s toes.

Why would this be newsworthy? It would be newsworthy only if it were unexpected.

And it would be unexpected only if nobody really believed that prayer could have this effect.

If I believed god existed, I’d expect woman to be regrowing toes through prayer regularly. And if other people really believed in the power of prayer, I don’t think that this event would surprise them either.
