Are they serious?! What on earth……
I wish I could say no… but I think they are. The whole “power of prayer”/faith healing crap. Interested in the AIDS cure in particular. Maybe they are using ‘heal’ for a purpose?

I cannot believe people get away with crap like this
because apparently because it’s a “belief” it’s not meant to be criticised. Or so I’ve been told. Not that I necessarily listen to that advice :p
Wow, can they actually say that?
Surely not and how many people would believe that claim, I wonder?
If you’re targeting depression… you may have an audience. ‘
My (fortunately skeptical/cynical) brain dismisses it, but get low enough. and it might be an option.
This is a pretty old adversing trick. Put the soft puppy next to the toilet paper to make you think the paper is soft. Put a vague statement about god next to some diseases and you think the statement is related to the diseases. There is no claim being made here (it doesn’t say what or who was healed by anything), it just looks like it at first glance.
Yes I just commented both here and facebook.
adversing? advertising!
Maybe the Catholic church needs to see these marketing guys
I wonder what happens when you put a soft puppy next to god?

nawwww ;)
Oh. Dear.
I think this falls under the umbrella of God is responsible for all. So if you get better through chemo, it was God’s will etc etc. Kooky.
as one friend said on Flickr:
Not that I agree, but I much prefer Jim’s approach to reasoning it out than the idea that with prayer people can be magically healed. “The opportunity for prayer
for you to be healed will
also be available.” is on offer at the event.
Your perspective is off. You are misreading the sign.
Obviously we all die, but those of us with a sickness can rest assured that our early death would be a blessing from the too-good-to-show-himself-god but so in need of our love and worship that he seeks to punish us for ignoring him. Our death is the cure! How sweet!
Proof you don’t need good marketing to sell a garbage product.
ahh, yes. I must look at it that way. I should be grateful if god decides to let me die and go to his heaven place.
But if there’s a hell I’m going there. No chance otherwise, from what I’ve read :D
