I am sorry you have folks surrounding you practicing not the compassion Christ taught about. We are here to help you negotiate the maze. You are in my thoughts. Heal soon & be well.

That's just so sick at a time of worry and concern for you

Tonight I will raise a toast for your good health.

Because everyone knows that religious people never get ill. Stay Strong!!!

My mother used to blame bad breaks in my life on my refusal to give my heart to Jesus. ? Stay away from her you are going through enough.

Well, forget that shit and if possible keep a distance from such negativity. Praying may be a good placebo but only if you believe in it. Also the statement implies that all religious people, because they don't 'sin' and they pray regularly must be super fit and have no health issues, no allergies, never get headaches or toothaches, the list goes on...I doubt you will find one of these Super-People in any religious house in the world. Perhaps the next time she gets a cold you could ask her to pray it away and stop whining! I hope the blood tests come back okay. Let us know how you get on. And illness has nothing to do with god. Its bacteria, virus and maybe even genetic. So if there is something of a genetic basis your dear ole parents gave it too you! Not sin or being non-religious.

Religious people can often be the most judgemental, and often victim blame. If there were any stock to what they said, religious people would never get disease.

Whilst they are talking, paste on a big smile that looks like a "Yes O.K" and inside, make your own plans to get weller. Keep saying 'yes' because eventually it shuts them up .

Wow, i remember one born again telling a co worker she got MS because she sin. Hope your health issues get better. Hope you find people that are not going to go all old testment on you.

Spiritual people always try to find all the answers in religion. I'm a holy person too, but I don't think this is the explanation. Your blood results will show the real reasons. It would've been helpful to specify your symptoms. Maybe someone from this forum had passed through the same issues as you. Unfortunately, most people don't pay enough attention to their health problems until it is too late. I've always tried to take care of myself. The most severe illnesses don't cause any noticeable symptoms. The first step in keeping yourself healthy is to ensure hygiene. I usually shop for the needed products at [mcdaidpharmacy.ie] Online shopping frees my time a lot.

This infuriates me. I think that if someone were to have said that to me about my health condition I would've literally bit their head off. Literally. Kind of like Ozzy Osbourne biting the head off of a bat.

That is horrific. What an absolutely shitty thing to say and to do to your child. So religious people never get sick, never get cancer? As a nurse I can tell you first hand that this isn't true. How do they explain that? Are the religious people who die from liver failure or a brain tumor similarly "not good enough" in god's eyes? If so, why? Even if what they were saying was true - they want you to worship some asshole who will punish you for not believing while simultaneously refusing to provide a single shred of evidence for that existence?? If that god exists he can fuck right off.

If religion is so good at keeping you healthy, why do religious people see a doctor at all? The moment one of them steps foot in a hospital is the moment they admit their god has zilch to do with overcoming sickness/disease.

I'm sorry to hear about your issues, and I do hope that everything turns out for the best with your health. I'm also sorry that there are people in your life who would treat you in such a manner at such a vulnerable moment. You deserve better.

They are delusional. Don't let their negativity (even if unintentional) hinder your positivity. Try not to stress more than you have to. Be strong and brush that bullshit off...

Get well soon. Funny how the devout get sick all the time and my heathen ass is tip top shape.

You should not let people get you down. Especially when you are dealing with health issues. Surround you self with positive people. Good luck.

Just tell them that your health problems are due to their gods plan.

That hair color looks like a symptom, j/k it looks great.

Good luck with the parents, there's no easy way to deal with that.

sounds like they are just being unkind, and using your current situation to try to guilt you into religion. I am very sorry to hear this is happening to you.
You can always remind them that many an evil, racist person has great health, and many an innocent child or kind heart has suffered unbelievably - and that crosses all faiths (or absence of faith).

I sincerely hope your health picks up soon, and that whatever comes along can be handled so you can continue to live happily.

I'm sorry for your situation. Just remember though -and feel free to remind people if you care to- that pious people get sick too. Meanwhile, surround yourself with people who will have empathy and compassion for you without having to pass a religious test.
I hope your bloodwork comes back without any major issues.

Positive mental attitude is important when facing any health challenge, as for the religious assholes at least you know who has your back and who doesn't because they aren't helping. Be Well and ignore the haters with their hateful imaginary friend.

Funny how they all seem to forget the "judge not lest you be judged" part of the Bible. Conveniently.

I had a friend, religious (but not obnoxiously), nicest person in the world. She died of an aggressive form of colon cancer at 53. I'm sorry, but all their pronouncements are bullshit. "Good Christians" die every day, at all ages, and nothing can stop that. There's no 200 year old religious people out there; we all die around the same average age.

What really bothers me is the implied smugness of the people telling you this, an "I guess this will show THEM!" attitude. They are taking a small bit of pleasure out of this.

I know you can't chose your relatives, and I'm sorry you have to go through this nonsense. But really the best thing to do is stay away from these people.

I am so sorry that you have to deal with a support system that is not supportive. Hope you have others to lean on in this difficult time in your life. Victim blaming? Medical issues are medical issues Factual and not having to do with ethics. Good luck. lol I don't beleive in luck either.

I'm terribly sorry you have to deal with crap from relatives on top of having health issues. I hope you have friends who are there for you, and actually help you feel better. Take care of yourself.

sorry they add being a bummer to an already difficult situation. Just imagine them dancing the Bite the Lawango Tango
