Stupid crazy people bother me. You bother me.
Ooooh. Who rattled your cage?
Then why did Paul refer to him as a Doctor in his letter to the Colossians?
That would be like saying “Mary Magdaline, the prostitute”.
Doesn’t make sense to keep using a title to a profession that you consider sinful once you are saved.
But maybe logic is a sin as well.
Hmmmm. . . . OK.
Because???
If it leads you away from the Lord's commandments, most assuredly so.
Luke wrote the Acts, wherein he described the acts. Healing was definately one of those, but not the pagan variety. James describes in detail the process of healing used by the church, in his chapter five.
Actually,
though Pastor Henry W Wright is supportive to a point of the medical community, he also holds no punches and tells it like it is.
His book:
A MORE EXCELLENT WAY: Be In Health—Spiritual Roots of Disease; Pathways to Wholness
documents extensive study and experience freeing and healing people of incurable things as well as more common things that meds are somewhat effective with.
I strongly encourage one and all to check it out.
Pastor Wright’s track record with some diseases is such that he has medical personnel experts in some incurable diseases sending him their patients from all over the country.
Certainly hard to argue with his great success.
He started out wrestling with God about why only 5% of those he prayed for healing for—were healed. God began to show him why and how to correct it. His success rate is way above that now.

WOW, WHAT HOSTILITIES TOWARD YOU, EWT!
This shrink’s opinion is . . .
That there is a sizeable chunk/percentage of the posters on this thread who demonstrate a
LOT of behavior consistent with
those who are:
1. INSECURE—particularly with folks who are markedly different from them.
2. ARROGANT TO THE MAX—usually another feature born out of insecurity . . .
3. HOSTILE AND ANGRY—perhaps chrnoically, routinely . . . again, perhaps from foundational insecurities . . .
4. DERISIVE, DISMISSIVE, PERSONALLY ASSAULTIVE ETC. . . . again . . . likely from insecurities—they feel more whole and more human when they can put others down—the more harshly and ruthlessly the better they feel . . .
5. SELF-RIGHTEOUS PRIGS given to thinking they are better than virtually anyone and possibly than God Himself.
Posting rules in our forum mean nothing to them.
THEY are ABOVE such serf needed rules.
THEY have the RIGHT to call someone hostile demeaning names because THEY are so PERFECT AS WELL AS PERFECTLY KNOWLEDGEABLE etc.
THEY have the right to scream and throw rocks so THEY feel better because in their lofty judgment some serf dares to say things THEY construe as silly, crazy, whatever less than THEY are usually given to thinking and saying . . . in their own eyes, of course . . . too often, probably, . . . in their own shrinking world.
EWT, some of your statements do come off more than a little shrill, yourself.
However, I personally believe that you are entitled to construe reality as you do. Where I disagree, I disagree.
And, though i think the medical community does a lot of good and is filled with very sacrificial dedicated loving people . . . there ARE a lot of greedy jerks in it as well—chief amongst them some international conglomerates well entrenched in the globalist elite’s values and agenda.
In any case, thanks for the thread, It alerts me to a lot of curr-ish behavior and lets me know better of a long growing list of folks I should never let near children or pets.
Such typical, classic cheery-ness from the great TD . . . it would appear.
I remember him. He had the solutions to the whole world's problems. He was such a liar, getting caught right on the thread. What a loser.
LOL I vote for the local drunk who has to tell everyone he knows that he knows it all.
My mother died in Raleigh, NC on December 28, 1999 of MRSA, you jackass.
While I basically agree with your conclusions about payments, etc., your premises are weird.
Doctors are hardly “New Age” snake-oil salesmen. The New Age snake-oil people are the 1s telling us NOT to go to “western doctors”, and to take this 1 supplement pill and it solves all problems, and that this 1 problem is the cause of all your problems, etc. All without real research.
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Viking Kitty/ZOT ping list!. . . don't be shy.
Something wrong with TD being upset over his mom's cause of death being poo pooed?
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Viking Kitty/ZOT ping list!. . . don't be shy.
Just out of curiosity (and not to belittle your family’s grief and your mother’s suffering as I’m sure it was a horrifying thing. My dad also died of similar complications (going septic) from chemo which wiped out his immune system. Different cause, same type of presentation...)
...anyway, I think there is some value in the article in that the people who are trying to bring up this idea of antibioitic resistant bacteria are not really doing it scientifically just like the global warming crowd aren’t relying on real science. Create a crisis, and you have a captive audience.
I have seen research that says these strains have always been present, (just as the antibiotics themselves have always been present — what they are in essence is different molds that inhibit certain bacterial growth), so it doesn’t seem to me that antibiotic use is what is causing them... just like guns don’t cause more wars now than in the past. We just hear about them more readily.
Antibiotics don’t kill bacteria — your body still is the one that destroys them. It slows them down so that the body can actually catch up to the rate of reproduction of these bacteria. I am pretty sure in the articles I’ve read that the bacteria which are resistant to antibiotics are also weaker naturally and so they would only really flourish in the presence of an already compromised immune system. I could be wrong, I’m just remembering what I read off the top of my head.
Now this reminds me of that joke which I'm sure you've all heard, about the man who was on his roof in a flood, praying. A guy in a life raft came by and offered to rescue him and the guy says "no I have faith in God,"
Then a motorboat came by and the guy says "no I have faith in God, you can move on..."
Then a helicopter comes by and offers to pick him up and he says "no, I have faith in God... move along."
Then the flood waters finally overtake him and he drowns. He gets to heaven and says "God, I trusted you to save me, why didn't you answer?"
God says "well I sent a life raft and a motorboat and a helicopter..."
MRSA is the super-strain of strep bacteria that is a result of
the patient being immune to ordinary antibiotics. This was
the official explanation given to our family back in 1999 by the doctors and nurses in the hospitals here. I trust the medical staff personnel here, since they are well trained and operated by Duke University, UNC, Eastern Carolina and Wake Forest Universities. All have excellent medical schools.
My point was that someone writing a vanity post, denouncing the medical condition of MRSA as some political ploy is an idiot. Then along comes the stupid, insensitive poster who takes a poke at me personally. I am sick of this on FR. It has become a pigsty of liberals and religious phonies who follow anything and anyone without any regard to truth or convictions,
