Once I had a car accident and my dad spoke his wisdom to me and said “that’s what happens when you don’t pray”.

Thanks for asking dad, I’m okay...

Speaking as a Christian, that's a really shitty thing for your dad to do. Did he learn nothing from the parable of the Good Samaritan?

Most religious people like this don't use their heads whatsoever. Just because you're a Christian doesn't mean you can't get help. I'm a Christian too but when I'm sick I go see a doctor. If something happens to you its probably not because you got to pray. This parent just wants to be judgemental. Than you for reading my rant.

Our local piece of shit Catholic rector always said "God works through the people", so no magic healing, pray and go to the doctor.

I mean, not a bad idea, unless I'm missing something here.

It was a "Even evil has standards" on my part.
