For the religious here, who think that PD has enhanced your life with understanding from others , or a wisdom that that the healthy dont understand. My views are: Well possibly very offensive, to the undeucated , but lets go for it

1. Does my suffering provide me with a courage and patience which offers the healthy an opportunity to show sympathy which you think helps me with my suffering NO, thats blind stupid thinking, to think that pd has inhanced your life with understanding from others, that has made you wiser in some form is stupid!! or totally desparate!

Pd has robbed us from healthy bodies,!! I think understanding from others, should always be there. Healthy or not. thats basic compassion

2. Does this disease provide society with an opportunity to invest money in trying to find a cure for this kind of suffering? Like the possible cure of Stem cell research? No you Americans dont go there because of massive misguided religious views.

3. Can any one discuss misguided religous views out their in an honest open forum. NO NO , religion is like the untouchable subject, which is a very naive view for the uneducated

4. Apparently althougth
a good god would regret our suffering, his greatest concern is surely that each of us shall show patience , sympathy and genorisity and thereby, form some form of holy character. CRAP!!!!

5. I want people to tell me their thoughts of God and disease. and why everyone in USA is so focused on God!

Then accept mine opinion and i will tell you why God doesnt exist .

" Sweet Peachy-I don't have concrete answers and I, too, hate PD and cancer and paralysis, etc., but I know the Creator and we don't have to understand while in our earthly vessel. Some day, in eternity with God, answers will not be needed. Look around, there of course is plenty of pain and sadness but look at a rose, or the mountains or even a baby puppy. God is the source of all and His love is FREE. I understand if you don't want to trust or believe in God but why not just try...you may have everything to gain...love and hugs... "

" I love all of your opinions here, thank you. I wish their was some religous/ god group here that l could join. But sadly no.

Question here from me? and a wise author i have read. If l told you that a teapot a tiny little teapot in an eclipital orbit, to small to see, to small to be revealed by our telescopes, but this is a sacred truth taught and instilled into the minds of people for the last 2000 years, so you must believe this is the truth. Wouldnt you think me rather eccentric that l cant prove it??

You would all say im crazy. This is my god theory

Jon Jon in you opinion you state, that you have had much support from you church, that is wonderful, but that is not God, that is the love of the people who go there, that is just plain simple love, how things should be.

Mel darling, little wonders of the earth are just nature, and evolution, not god, and l do totally respect your opinion (love you Mel)

yoohomrs, i cant explain israel and palistine (mixed up warring places they are) so so sad that people fight in the name of their god, thats sick "

" Yes it is true I have been blessed by the people I know, But it is God who puts these people on my path to encourage and support. It is as you say simple Love that is expressed; simple, holy, effervesent love of GOd's love through us. If feel as though God has put you and the people who are part of this group as support through this sometimes damnable quest. I appreciate your shaking my cage to what and why do I beleive. I'll keep you in my thoughts as we journey through this THING we May not agree as to how we find the stuff that keeps us together to journey to good health, but we do it together, some praying for help and some in other ways.

" Another thought from me, no disrespect meant to anyone here, l know you all realise that , thank you :) its just my nature.

You cannot take the bible as a history book, it even contridicts its self massively, has any one ever really opened the book and taken it as the liberal truth, why does no one notice the glaring contridictions. ef matthew even traces the desent of joesph from king david via 28 intermediate generations, whilst luke has over 41 generations, and none of these names nor finding even overlaps.

why were only a few testaments put into the bible, the very favourble ones, when over 1000 were put forward, were these not good enough???

why has mary magdelan put forward as a prostitute, for many many years, and now the catholic church has done a massive back flip and admits she was possibly the closest to jesus.

whats with a virginal birth, thats impossible.

Jesus im sure did exist but was not the son of god, he was probably just a good man, with a good message,

did no miracles, that is just a chinese whisper "

" PEACHY THERE IS HEAD KNOWLEDGE AND HEART KNOWLEDGE. MY PRAYER IS FOR A QUICKING OF YOUR HEART THAT IT WOULD BE A SOFTING OF THE HEART.I CAN SEE PEACHY THE EVANGLIST
