That's real Christlike of them. They sound like fanatical sadists!

Child welfare dropped the ball here.

It's amazing the hypocrisy of supporting the so-called "right to choose" (abortion) and then condemning these people. In both cases someone dies.

I do not support these charlatans who fool people into believing in "faith healing," but there is certainly no room for judgement on the part of those who support a woman's decision to kill her child in the womb.

They are being deceived. This is not "Christian fundamentalism." A "fundamentalist" Christian believes that the bible is God's word, written by men as they were lead by the Holy Spirit. That is what is meant by "inspired scripture." Fundamentalists therefore believe in the inerrancy of scripture.

These people may be "fundamentalist" in their view of scripture, but they should not be used as an example of all who call themselves, "fundamentalist." The "faith healers" are charlatans. They are misguided in their understanding of the roll of miracles in Christs time, which were for a sign. The "faith healers" come to their belief through incorrect biblical exegesis. They are cut from the same cloth as the "name it and claim it" variety.

Sara Palin is an example of a "fundamentalist Christian." I guarantee you, she does not believe in "faith healing."

Really? Can you explain why you think that? We were more Christian in this country 150 years ago, and I think we've made a lot of progress. We actually sent men to the moon and back, we invented computers, the PC, we learned to fly ... what roll did religion play in preventing progress?

People die from disease, do these people think god interferes and decides who gets to die with a long agonizing horrible disease and who doesn't?
