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?).

The number of times people have told me that I would be just fine if I prayed harder... be glad nobody's told you that your husband would be Just Fine if you weren't sleeping around on him. Seriously, yes, people *are* that bad and that stupid and that cruel and insensitive, and I can only blame ingrained good manners for my not having beaten them half to death with my cane and told them I wasn't going to call an ambulance because God would heal them.

Ingrained good manners

I might *say* it, I just don't usually do it.

This may also be because my cane-swinging arm can't take the workout.

Oh, I've received not-very-subtle private messages to that effect - primarily from some devoutly Christian friends of mine. I think them kindly for worrying about the state of my soul, the probability of God punishing me for my wickedness and such and then make a point of removing them from certain filters on the LJ.

And, okay, ranting and frothing a bit, but I do that in private...
