After another hideous session at the dentist, where the anaesthetic wore off half way through and I spent a lot of the time bleeding, it still hurts a bit when I chew. Will this pain go away? It better bloody do. I am developing the biggest aversion to dentists possible.

No news other than this. Becky banged on about the power of prayer healing for forever, and basically concluded with, �We don�t know why some people get healed and some people die, despite hundreds of people praying for them. LOOK, WE JUST DON�T KNOW AND THAT�S TOTALLY FINE. Who needs logic in these matters? Sure, Nick�s brother getting paralysed threw up some questions for us, but we have 549 people praying for him and we just know he�s going to be fine, so that�s that. Fuck the little old lady with cancer who only has 3 people praying for her. Except quantity doesn�t matter. Or does it? Why do I think it�s so great that so many people are praying for Nick�s brother to get better, when it seems completely unfair that healing is directly proportionate to how many people pray for that person�s healing? Surely the loner deserves to be healed just as much as the popular person? On another note, why is it that amputees are never healed? Why is it just spurious cancer and paralysis cases? And why is it that I think it's completely acceptable to preach on and on about this to my atheist friend, when she would think it the height of rudeness to ever talk about how great it is to NOT believe in God? Either way, we don�t know and that�s just the way it is. Got to go now, byeee!�

Argggggh. Just listen to yourself, for God�s sake. I know I have a lot of conflicting issues, because my mother undoubtedly prayed a lot to be healed and then wasn�t, but even a completely unbiased person can see that Becky�s argument makes no sense whatsoever.

Am a bit drunk on beer. This undoubtedly obvious.
