This is reason 118 why I don't go to church anymore. I had this one couple who had a son w/ severe disabilities who were all the time giving me 'cures'. One time he gave me a book that basically said if people drank more water they'd be cured His wife was pressing me to go to this 'healing farm'. When I resisted she stated and I quote "You've made a friend of your disease." I started avoiding them like the plague.

I stopped going to that church. Found out the pastor was beating his wife!

But I ran into them at a friend's funeral a couple months ago. The guy asked me how I was doing and I told him I was healed! I said, "Yep! It's a miracle!"

Don't know if he was smart enough to grasp the sarcasm or not.
