WHY GOD WON’T ANSWER AMPUTEE PRAYERS??
 
        & nbsp;   One of the many things that I often see, and hear (while watching T.V. in the wee hours of the morning) are infomercials with churches and televangelist’s. I don’t know how you all feel about them, or if you believe that god can cure all and any illness, but a question came to mind. “Why wont god cure amputees?” it didn’t make sense, I ill try to reason.
        & nbsp;   Well first reason could be that god, just doesn’t like those poor guys who have lost an arm or a leg (not knocking on my fellow brothers in arms I happen to be a Army vet as well). For one reason or the other they have made it to the “bad list” of god since the beginning of our species, or as some would have it the “creation of our species”
        & nbsp;   Second, maybe he’s too busy answering all those prayers from those rich privileged children of wealthy parents to hear the ailing prayers of those injured. He can get pretty busy remember “Bruce Almighty.”
        & nbsp;   Third god is “testing” them, or “god works in mysterious ways”. That’s all too convenient but let’s assume then that he is testing them or has plans unknown to us. Then not one single victim of amputation is worthy of his healing? Too bad, I’ve known plenty of soldiers who, in my opinion are more than worth spontaneous limb regeneration.
        & nbsp;   Lastly perhaps he’s imaginary and doesn’t exist. Now if we add that to the question of why he doesn’t heal amputees, it all makes sense. An imaginary creature can’t “hear” prayer, nor answer it. By saint George an imaginary creature can’t even test us. So it makes sense as to why there is plenty of proof for that our friend God, Jehovah, Allah, and/or Jesus are imaginary.
 

Oh PS. The reason I’m so grumpy is not even god at all it’s the lame quacks, and pseudoscience, and fake medicine that is infiltrating the medical system, but that’s a topic for another time.
