You make a very good point. It also kind of goes with your attempted trap on the Camping issue, because if I defend the televangelist, I'm a religious nutjob, but if I attack him, I'm arrogantly rejecting his beliefs. I would say (because to again make the point, God does not do hocus pocus) that faith does not preclude common sense. My personal experience with the chest pains does not tell me that I can make any ailment go away with prayer, and I don't try. Not to mention, no matter how much I pray for health, eventually I will die. And no matter how much you rely on science (medicine) for your health, eventually you will die too. However, I've never met a doctor who doesn't believe that a positive attitude helps in the healing process, which goes back to my comparison of prayer to meditation.
Rat's, my image reply to Martin didn't work. Its a shot of Star Wars' General Akbar, with "Its a trap!"
i dont think i ever saw that movie but im pretty sure he was a mere admiral when ole miss was close to adopting him as their mascot.
He was a admiral because they were a “fleet” like the Navy…but admiral is the equivalent to a general fwiw
