Hippo,
Does that mean you are not coming back? I notice that as we began to see more of the details of the incident that your claim was definitely beginning to weaken. Are you leaving because you know you don’t have a case or are you frightened that the truth might not be what you have been led to believe? You’d certainly gain enormous respect if you admitted that your claim was premature and mistaken.
But just in case you come back and read this -
Hey, i dont know how in the world i am supposed to get a hold of his medical records, i just got married two months ago and he lives in Texas, so i have never met him.
So your fantastic claim is all based hearsay, and you haven’t verified anything personally.
All i have been able to do so far is ask my relatives here and they said that that night he went to bed with i think it was a low (or high, whichever one AIDS causes) stem cell count and when he went to the doctor the next day after he talked to my wife it was miraculously much higher (or lower)
It seems there are many things that can change between tests. Tests can vary according to time of day, current infections, lack of sleep, stress and other biological factors. Variation in the laboratory used, as well as how quickly the test is performed after the blood is drawn, can also affect test results. Therefore, it is very important to look at overall trends and not be alarmed or pleased by any one individual test result. The claim of a miraculous cure does seem very premature here since there are many factors involved.
and i guess it was without any medication, so it really was unexplainable,
Guess? You don’t know then?
I only know what i am told, and the source may not be credible in your eyes but that is more your problem than mine, so sorry.
Isn’t it your problem if you want to be believed? But isn’t it also your problem for your own sake so that you can know for sure that a miracle has occurred as opposed to a more credible natural remission or the more common testing error?
I dont know much about AIDS, i am sure you do.
Then you aren’t qualified to judge whether this is miraculous or something less fantastic.
God does a lot of things we dont understand, but nonetheless he still does them.
Not quite. There are many claims that God does things, like your claim, but there is no proof, like yours, that he does anything or that he even exists.
And again, what about Biblical prophesies, the hundreds that have already come true? Historically they have already been proven true.
And you still haven’t demonstrated just one of them.
I have given you an account of a healing that changed my uncles life
But you haven’t shown that the cause of the cure, if any, was divine intervention. You have only made a largely baseless assertion.
Einstein himself said that the more he studied the stars the more he believed that there was a creator.
Can you quote the reference please.
He also said –
I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious in ourselves. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension, nor do I wish it otherwise; such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls. (Einstein on the Mysterious)
And –
I cannot accept any concept of God based on the fear of life or the fear of death or blind faith. I cannot prove to you that there is no personal God, but if I were to speak of him I would be a liar. (Einstein's Last Thoughts)
Darwin also said that creation was a far more likely and acceptable theory than evolution, he even went so far as to completely abandon all that he had claimed about evolution.
LOL. Excellent Christian propaganda. You also need to quote the reference for that piece of creative writing. Perhaps this quote from his autobiography might be helpful –
....During these two years (March 1837 - January 1839) I was led to think much about religion. Whilst on board the Beagle I was quite orthodox, and I remember being heartily laughed at by several officers (though themselves orthodox) for quoting the Bible as an unanswerable authority on some point of morality. I suppose it was the novelty of the argument that amused them. But I had gradually come by this time (i.e. 1836 to 1839) to see the Old Testament, from its manifestly false history of the world, with the Tower of Babel, the rain-bow as a sign, &c., &c., and from its attributing to God the feelings of a revengeful tyrant, was no more to be trusted than the sacred books of the Hindoos, or the beliefs of any barbarian....
....Thus disbelief crept over me at a very slow rate, but was at last complete. The rate was so slow that I felt no distress, and have never since doubted for a single second that my conclusion was correct. I can indeed hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true; for if so, the plain language of the text seems to show that the men who do not believe, and this would include my Father, Brother, and almost all my best friends, will be everlastingly punished.
And this is a damnable doctrine....
You should also realize that Darwin graduated from Cambridge University with a theology degree, although he was never ordained, the journey of the Beagle deflected that path.
And also, light is a miracle in itself. It is made up of both waves and particles which is a physical, scientific impossibility. The light on earth here is made up of 2 impossible elements and the light in heavens light is, even more miraculously, made up of 3.
LOL.
Also if you would look at the number 7. There are 7 continents, 7 musical notes, 7 wonders of the world, 7 seas, 7 pure colors, 7 days of the week, many many many more 7's are everywhere. 7 is the number of completion, perfection, its God's own signature and it is all over this earth.
Ah but the number 2 is even more powerful – a binary digit has 2 states, man has 2 eyes, 2 ears, 2 nostrils, 2 arms, 2 legs, 2 lungs, 2 kidneys, the earth has 2 hemispheres, and 2 surface areas of land and sea, the day has 2 states of night and day, there are 2 ends of a journey (start and end), everything electrical has 2 states of on or off, one is either alive or dead, and gosh there are many many many more 2's everywhere.
None of you have thoroughly studied the Bible,
Wanna bet?
King Solomon put it best: " A wise man seeks understanding while a fool is only concerned with voicing his own opinion."
Right, so you have admitted understanding nothing about AIDS but have expressed your very strong opinion that someone has been miraculously cured, although only based on the opinions of others, and of course you have been unable to shown any proof. So who is the fool here?
Until you completely understand the Bible, the word of God, i would restrain from passing any judgement because you are completely missing the whole picture.
You realize you have just passed the judgment that we are missing the whole picture. Your restraint didn’t last very long.
