Sadly, it's been deleted now, but someone suggested that our genetic illness might be caused by demons of illness and perhaps prayer is the answer for a cure.

To which I replied that I had a genetic disease, not a moral stain.

To which others replied that there was nothing accusatory about his comments (infested by demons? pray for deliverance? WHAT?).

No, you see, the demons are not per se punishing you for anything. However, shame on you for obstinately refusing to pray for deliverance. And if you do pray and nothing happens, shame on you for having insufficient faith.

Then you should pray harder to your heathen Gods!
The important thing is to believe absurdities have Faith!

You can still be a Person OF Faith, provided that you suck at math, think that the world was better off when everyone spoke English, and reading makes your head hurt!
