....what?

Okay, hold on here. These are not miracles. They are treatments. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, conflating the scientific advances we've made in medicine with 'Christ's Miracles' is wishful thinking, and attempting to attach religious significance to medical science is really disturbing, especially given the real harm to actual medicine some Christian groups do with mysticism and distrust.

Attaching religious significance to medical science is fitting considering the amount of resources that Christian groups spend on healthcare.

 Neither was I. McDowell is a heaven's gate cultist who missed the comet and is stuck here on earth with a bunch of normies. You can actually piece together bits and pieces of what he's talking about from their hilarious olde fashion website.

The religion overall is fundamentally patriarchal.
