[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing that makes me crazy about the golf cart girl is how they keep praising Jesus. Apparently Christ can heal her but couldn't keep her in the cart in the first place. I wish them well but SMH. [/quote]

Oh totally agree. Is the husband a minister? He speaks like one on their Caring Bridge page (yes, I admit to stalking them last night). It's one thing to be hopeful and wish for a miracle, it's another to be in denial and unable to face reality. I guess it doesn't hurt anyone except maybe their other kid, but yeesh it feels like "we love Jesus the most so we deserve a miracle more than everyone else in our situation."[/quote]

I completely agree.  Something about the tone of his posts bothers me.  I mean I can understand they are devastated and in denial.  However, he seems to think his child will get a miracle - but there are so many people who have accidents who never get that miracle.  [b]One woman commented on his post that perhaps she didn't have enough faith because her child didn't get a miracle. [/b] I felt awful for her.  [/quote]

What?! THIS. This is why this faith/miracle/Jesus talk is NOT just inspirational and uplifting. If they weren't turning it into a social media frenzy, I'd pity them and hope they can come to terms with reality. But they're putting it out for the world to see and attracting vulnerable people that can spin their message as a indictment against them. Yeesh.[/quote]

Weirder still -- I just went back to see if anyone had commented on her post and it appears to have been removed.  Maybe I'm just not seeing it but I wonder....[/quote]
