Some things one can't even joke about: If you thought Benny Hinn was bad...Guess what?
| NAIROBI, Kenya — At prayer healing services in some Pentecostal churches, pastors invite people infected with HIV to come forward for a public healing, after which they burn the person’s anti-retroviral medications and declare the person cured. |
| Some 6.3 million people are receiving anti-retroviral drugs in hospitals and clinics across eastern and southern Africa. The prayer healings are especially worrisome because people who quit treatment may become resistant to the drugs. |
| At the church, she was asked to pay the equivalent of $12 to be accepted for the healing ceremony and $24 at the end of the ceremony. The pastor then confiscated her drugs and those of four others and set them ablaze. The group was asked to undergo a test at a certain clinic in Nairobi, where they were all declared cured. |

Aw geez.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.
Why not question something for a change?

In Uganda, Gabriel Amori, coordinator of that country’s INERELA+ chapter, said Pentecostal church pastors often tell people that a lack of faith is the reason the prayer healing isn’t working.

Faith healers always use "lack of faith" or "God has other plans for you" to explain why a healing didn't work. They are psychopaths preying on the desperate while hiding behind the guise of "God's will". Makes you want to weep for the world and force these "men of God" into non-consensual immolation at the same time.

Agreed. (except for the immolation part). These people need to go to jail. |
Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil. So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. (Eph 5:15-17) |

| If they go to jail, they can still do their community great harm. Immolation solves that problem. |
