"we have a disease,"


which it turns out, they believe, is the only disease cured by god.

Not cancer, not diabetes...and although the claim is their disease is about a lack of sanity...not bipolars, schizophrenics, not those with childhood onset leukemia...

But, if you get drunk, high, or gamble too much...god will cure you and you become one of the chosen people.

It certainly couldn't be that your "disease" was all in your mind and your faith...which is all in your mind...made you better...

You got better because you believed you could.

Of course, amongst 12 steppers....believing a person did it, not a higher power, is tantamount to treason, blasphemy and pedophilia.
