of course my dad thinks putting your hands on sick people and praying out loud would cure them of their illnesses;;
#Personal#that's like one of the worst things i've heard what with this whole pandemic thing;;;#this is the same guy who coughs without covering his mouth and puts his germs all over the place when he's sick#which has gotten the rest of the family sick multiple times in the past and no amount of telling him why that's such a bad thing ever#stopped him before and honestly#if he gets the virus and gets us all sick - whether or not we die from that - i will be this close to losing it and would prolly need#someone to restrain me before i do something i'd regret on my behalf for losing my morality over this dangerous idiot#the same if i find out he's being unhygienic in general outside and going to crowded places and shit because oh my god#anyway#just a reminder for people out there; stop acting like prayers are cures :)#they're not replacements#a lot of times when people pray for the sick and disabled they turn out to be scams and call me biased since i'm an atheist and i'm more#likely to believe that and see examples of scam prayer healing (that honestly kinda look like scary cult rituals but what do i know hyjukig)#please stop it :D#DO pray if you think it'll help but stop acting like it's a cure :) DO say you'll hope there'll be vaccines and treatments soon and pray#for that; pray for people's wellbeing and protection - particularly the vulnerable#and STOP being an asshole and saying shit like 'i'm so ashamed of other christians for not getting in people's personal spaces and touching#them without their permission and praying for them when they didn't ask and for not believing prayer is a cure for illnesses >:( how dare#they not be a true christian and pray for that man i saw out in public earlier during a pandemic crisis where everyone is trying to keep#their distance from another to stop the spread of a dangerous virus!!!' because you're not helping anyone at all#you're a danger to society if you actually think that way; you're going to spread the disease even more you're going to make other#christians feel shitty for not being more obsessive and thinking their faith can save everyone in every literal and figurative way#which is harmful since there wouldn't even BE diseases; mental illnesses; wars and etc if prayers actually worked 100% of the time#(not saying it does work since i'm an atheist i don't believe it does anything beyond some coincidences here and there for small things and#induce a placebo effect for some people who genuinely believe it works but i can't prove that it doesn't work just like how i can't prove#the afterlife and god don't exist (but if god does exist then wow he's the worst god ever and a shitty person jukhilhikjyhtgf) so yeah for#you guys those coincidences and placebo effect moments are evidence for your case but you can't tell me that prayers actually work#all the time and do miracles because i've yet to see my prayer for my depression to go away; my prayers for the world to become a kinder#place and to have less unnecessary deaths and for the stigmatized and poor to get better lives actually come through :V )#but yeah just stop being dumb and ignorant and obnoxious please ^^
