My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

That's the point I'm trying to make. 80,000 approx people go to Lourdes every year to be healed and cured and the RCC (as opposed to say a body of medical professionals) have recognised only a few cases of success. In fact the success rate is so minute it's something like 0.0000335 if we take the 200 million visitors since 1860 and 67 cases of 'miracles'. Statiscally speaking that's meaningless. In fact the miracles are suspect to begin with and if anything visitors are more likely to catch something from the water than be healed by it such is the number of people that drink and bathe in it.
LOL, I don't know whether it makes me laugh more Fidel's stab itself at Ahmadinejad (and his most famous buddies, like Chavez) or the Italian communists that are in total denial, up to the point of being almost speechless, particularly on Facebook where they are usually so vocal, as good ol' Lìder Màximo also caught the opportunity to add that communism utterly failed, both in Cuba and all around the world!!!
What? Ahmadinejad is an anti-semite? This is totally brand new information...

A miracle isn't something you can summon at will. So, are you trying to say that having so few miracles for so many people means that, statistically, miracles don't exist? I'm really not grasping where it is you're going with this.

I was just trying to point out relying on religious faith to improve one's well being is pointless. There's no real proof it works. If anything it's harmful since one might reject real world solutions.

I can agree with you on that. It's been said by many people that relying on faith alone won't do anything. Praying every night to God to win the lottery won't do any good if the person [at the very least] doesn't buy a lottery ticket. Even then...
