This reminds me of my favorite episode of Super Dave Osborne, the 3 Little Pigs sketch!

And what medicine were they handing out? Insulin? Anti-biotics? What, exactly?

All human beings are temporary. If it were true that a religious belief (whether christian, muslim, hindu, buddhist, jewish) could prevent another human from dying, just about everyone would belong to that sect, and there'd be no need for religious door-to-door salesmen.

well religion is a separation for peoples belief, it's not the individual per-say it is a false god's they worship, or idol man-made, this a false deity, common with angelic being, which the naked eye cannot see, it's like you need a particular kind of satellite to see the invisible spectrum to see the universe, religion or religious belief is type of worship, if I like playing a video game, and love the character in the video game, this call worshiping a character, or as Hollywood actors for there success, it's worshiping, and religious belief is the same but, which the eye cannot see, passed down through tradition.
religious door-to-door salesmen is like giving life insurance, no man can give eternal life, their is a belief, that is not and I can't say, man not created to predestine to one life, but as a human yes, every man have a type of end.
belief is individual self character, or you can say your eternal soul, this a scientific fact, just do your research.
science is knowledge, and knowledge is wisdom, not anything to me that's religious belief just facts and truth
thank you

Well, that's a lot of dancing around to not answer my question.

Just so you know, having been raised in a fundamentalist household, I have a darn good idea of what religion is.

Religion has never been shown to cure disease. Science has.

it is just how you see things, if you thing the you can cure disease in your mind it may be possible, just seek what your mind can do, Religion is the mind noting more tradition, if one believe, them the mind will believe it, and as for miracle or some kind of intervention beyond believe, again is what the power of the mind can do, and cannot do, if you see something than that's miracle, it's up to you, Peoples! yes have very good ideas, depending in all you believe in, Religion is culture, if we did't have different culture in the would, than life would not be appealing, so what is the question, it is said one gives the right question, that may give the best answer, and you must remember, that every answers is just one, the rest is in many. And dancing around, it's just to kindle the mind

That's too much woo-woo for me.

And it is irrelevant to your original statement that your mother wouldn't have died had you let the proselytizers in.

yes, no religion (christian, muslin, Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, etc.) could prevent another human from dying, no man-made medicine, only that medicine may extend life but ultimate is death, yes temporary

but lets look at evil in the world instead no religious door-to-door salesmen, only should man getaway from , children in sexual desires immorality, wickedness, greed, malicious, hate, envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-minded, gossip, unrighteous,backbiters, violent, proud, boasters, evil things, disobedient to parents, discerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful, and unbelief.
Now no door-to-door salesmen just centuries of evil, facts and truth, is? there a medicine for evil ?

And what is the end of centuries of evil, and at what time, in your life time, yes man and women are temporary, who over look of mans progress centuries of evil. Do you think aliens or ?

Let be intelligent this, about human progress in the well-being of our fellow man!
even atheist believe in sometime every things that are temporary?

Who? answer for gunman from Las Vegas, he kill himself? Let be intelligent about this!

Remember sound questions provide answers

no door-to-door salesmen intelligent questions
peace
