Didn't we just discuss a GRRR MAD SO ANGRY KILL IT WITH FIRE story about parents who let their children diebecause they believe -- huh, wrongly, oh well -- they can pray the life-threatening illnesses away? Yup, we sure did. [contextly_sidebar id="iQhvToCDtMLUig9XjrYRR94qjq5PZAgl"]
This was always the biggest mystery to me when I was young. It seemed that if heaven was so wonderful, a real Christian would pray for death everyday. Also, any time a loved one got sick, it seemed to me that the Christian thing to say would be, "I hope you die." My Sunday school teachers didn't like me very much.

* no matter how many, or few, you have.
if prayer worked for that we wouldn't need gun control.
it's ineffable . . . just ask Aziriphale and Crowley.
don't you have to buke Satan first?
have you ever met porn actor/actress? . . . they all have tiny hands.
it's always a miracle when one person walks away from the plane crash . . . not so much for the 287 others and their families and friends.
