Well I'm sure they are healed other wise they would have bled to death by now!
A brilliant read and I challenge any christian to debunk it -in fact it already takes into consideration many scenarios of christian response. So then.. what do christians think of this? How much more proof could someone need?

I live with a severe disability caused by a traumatic injury.
For the first three years I could see no purpose for it...
...it seemed like everything I worked years toward was futile.
Then my partner was diagnosed with a medically incurable disease...
...and was given four months...
...and because I was unable to work I focused all my attention on understanding the condition and the range of medical protocols and alternative modalities that could manage or cure it.
Six years later my partner is in remission by all objective criteria...
...without resorting to solutions from Pharma.
We have a saying...nothing every happens to us only ever for us.
I love my disability.

I'm not a christian but I can "debunk" it very easily.
It hasn't been tried
After you get your millions of people to pray toheal an amputee, then we can talk after we see whether it works or not. But until then...it's neither fair nor reasonable to use this as an argument against prayer or god when it hasn't even been attempted.

I'm glad you've brought this up, because one of the things I've been enabled to do is to help two of them through www.compassion.com... , please join me so that we can do God's work by helping to care for their needs. God wants us to have a part in solving this problem together and it is a blessing to be able to do so.

That is simply your crutch. A faith that you are disabled for a reason larger than life. It's how you cope, a coping method and nothing more. Nice that you believe 27,000 children starve to death everyday is a gift from god to them. amazing.
you know earlier when i said i'd check back here in a few days? i won't, and that statement is why.
you just proved that you are trying to get people's goats.
poor guy has had something happen to him that is terrible, and you tell him his faith is a crutch...
regardless of what you think, or what you may hold to be true, have some damn respect for him and his beliefs. they are showing you some.
, their prayers have been answered. Their names are Disaya and Nor-Ae-Say.
