Religious faith in God is crazy, but religious faith in government is completely sane.

Who knew?

Unreal. I just watched the telemovie “Gifted Hands” about Dr. Ben Carson. It moved me to tears and I just downloaded the book. Perhaps they should listen to Dr. Carson.

You can believe in the power of Jesus’ healing all you want. Giving people an excuse to use prayer instead of medical treatment is something else.

"The University saw some of these movie clips of people being healed and giving their testimonies, and called them 'unscientific.'"

This was on a private website and those giving testimonials were sharing anecdotal evidence of their personal experiences. Why should that have to be scientific?

And this was a Catholic university.

"when a researcher working on matters of a scientific or medical nature allows religion to take the place of science, he compromises the scientific reputation of the university and breaks the bonds of trust with the university."

Did he EVER allow his faith in God to over-ride his scientific research at work?

I think not. He just did some things in his personal life that these secular, faithless administartrrs were embarassed by.

So, at a Catholic University, a researcher is fired for having faith in God.

Unbelievable. You can't make this suff up.

MORE LIBERAL LOGIC

“called them ‘unscientific’”

Ah yes! Science has tried for many years to disprove God’s powers. But, one day, the truth, and the judgement, will come.

I listened to a book and then watched a movie called Horse Boy. It’s about the parents of a pretty severely autistic boy who has an innate connection with animals. They decide that shamanistic healing will heal him and head off to Mongolia and take a long horseback trek to a remote region. The boy is of course helped.

The parents are teachers at a TX college.

I would bet a large amount that within 10 miles of their home they could have found a “Christian” faith healer. Mr. Spock or another objective observer of human behavior would not be able to see any logical or scientific difference between the rituals performed by the Mongolian shaman and the Texas faith healer.

What I thought was hilarious is that all their friends would nod along with agreement when they would talk about shamanistic healing, but would be appalled if they took the kid to the faith healer. Which of course, being modern liberals, they probably never even considered.

Find the $ that the University feared it would lose by keeping they guy, and you find the reason he was let go.

Hey! Scientists are supposed to believe in the possibility of everything outside of the first eleven chapters of Genesis!

Goodness knows I've never heard an evolutionist laugh at anything other than that.
