It’s murder. The abrahamic faiths are death cults. Any religion with a happy afterlife devalues real life. “It’s okay, they went home to god.” No, they’re dead and gone forever, and it was completely unnecessary.
Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible God and destroys a visible Nature. Unaware that this Nature he’s destroying is this God he’s worshiping.
Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour.
Matthew 9:
But Jesus turned around, and when He saw her He said, “Be of good cheer, daughter; your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.
Mark 5:
And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.”
Mark 11:
“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.”
Luke 17:
And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”
It’s no wonder many bible believers come away thinking all they need is faith and prayers.
And hey, what if sickness and death are good things, actually?
Romans 5:
Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope
Romans 8:
But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.
And:
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
2 Corinthians 4:
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
Have actual close family that recently had kids, refused all vaccines due to religious reasons.
Feel bad for those kids man.

Yep. As I keep quoting Hubert Reeves:
Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible God and destroys a visible Nature. Unaware that this Nature he’s destroying is this God he’s worshiping.
Everyone remembers the Sermon on the vaccines when Jesus said the MMR vaccine gives you autism.
I’d probably rather be autistic than dead but that’s just me I guess.
Kinda…
