Note this page:


The site Wrote:
Kathy Medina, her husband and three children live in Clovis, California. Zack was diagnosed with Autism and Neurofibromatosis at age 2 ½. At 9 years old, Zack has made great progress by doing 5 years of intense home schooling. He is currently doing RDI as a home school program. Six years of chelation, supplements, diet intervention, sensory integration, vision, saunas, auditory, occupational, speech, cranio-sacral therapies and hyperbaric oxygen treatments have put Zack on the road to recovery from autism.



Sheez, and you'd tihnk the Bible'd say sometihng about chelation being bad, since mercury was used as medicine back then....?

That you have? Meh, from my studies on funDIEs, it already sounded like they loved controlling people using conformist messages such as a certain other fundie site's constant talk aboout God's apparent expectations for movies he can't possibly watch at the same time as watching all 6.something billion people (and even just watching all 6.sometihng billion's impossible-sounding at that), but still.







And this page:

Today when you pray, tell God you know it is not impossible for Him to heal your child, completely. Tell Him you will have faith He is going to heal your child in your lifetime.




Personally, it always made me want to stick a water hose into my ear and turn it on whenever people capitalize words like "truth" and "him" and "he" since it just screams "YUUUUUCK" in a grammatically-incorrect way. Capitalizing "god", however, doesn't make me want to do the hose-in-ear thing.

Still, bleh. The page this one's from makes me want to vomit in a too-much-mercury-infused-sugar-in-mouth-type way.

But, going back to the page that explained about the book, I see a contradiction. This page says that 'Kathy' "devoted 40 consecutive days to reading and speaking to God. God strengthened and gave her hope as she prayed for her son that not only has autism but is diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis type 1. During those 40 days God strengthened and revealed His glory as she began to see in her son improvements never before made.". In that case, why did she resort to chelation, that oxygen-breathing-crap, and all the other, better, but still apparently ungodly stuff to try and "heal" him?! I detect a serious contradiction here, and perhaps that the prayers didn't work since, well, I tihnk I already pointed out that it just isn't possible for God to get involved in all his followers' affairs at once, even if he has much less than 6.something billion. Heh, contradictions of the fundie-curebie-logic-non-detecting type.

I also remember there's an old topic here called "CAN, DAN, FAN, now PAN!!!!!" or something like that about a similar site. Meh, reminds me of PAN in a way.

That site's insane. I mean, CD's of healing scriptures as opposed to medicine?! That has to be some weird denial thingy.... Yup, I shall have to keep an eye on that, since it reminds me of this site (in particular this page about using mercury to treat "the pox", and also this one, where peoples' fake replies are nearly impossible to understand, because, well, they're quacks and quacks'd rather not let ya understand 'em.

I think you can tell here that I'm a little too fascinated by history and quackies.

They're F.O.S., that's for sure.

If you put someone through all that they'll probably do whatever you say.

Poor kid. Any "improvements" in his behaviour are probably not his natural behaviour.

That's sickening.

Hopes and dreams you have for your child?????
Frrankly Im a Christian and what YOU want for your child doesn't neccessarily correspond to what God wants for his children!
These people are seriously deluded!
Yet another miserable failure of fundies to realise that God made us as He/She/It wanted, and that they're interfering with God's plans.
