I was born with a bicuspid aortic valve. Left alone, no matter how spiritually perfect, I would die of either the subsequent chamber enlargement & wall thickening causing congestive heart failure, or of valve calcification blocking the beat signal. Two surgeries and electromechanical implants later, I’m fine until either the valve breaks or the wiring dislodges.

Kindly explain how spirituality would have resolved the problem of a hydraulically overloaded heart.

I never wrote nor implied that there is no need to use doctors at time.
I don’t know about your heart and what the doctors told yyou would happen may or may not have been accurate. Often doctors are wrong!

Some Born-Again types believe that the Bible claims a perosn that sins has for four generations spite from God, so, your medical condition as a child was the result of someone having sinned in your family past and you were their punishment. I kid you not. They believe that with total conviction.

I was always taught that children were born innocent, yet, these type want to claim they are born of sin.
