At least it seems odd to me. I know that God can heal people and he has healed me before but I also have gone to the doctor for medicine and praise God that there are doctors. This guy says that if I have enough faith that doctors arent even needed. He wont go to the dentist, buy asprin, anything. I asked if he ever had a child, what he would do.. if they were born severely ill, what he would do. He wont answer my question. I do trust God, but God also gave us doctors to help us, I think. Now that I know these things and how he feels, I find myself freaking out.. Ive been told to run away as fast as I can. This is the only thing we disagree on, but for me it feels like a huge issue. He says that I can do whatever I wish, but I also could picture myself with this man and since Ive always wanted children, I find myself talking myself out of wanting them since he thinks that doctors are a waste and what if the child were sick? Am I making too much out of this? I want honest advice... .

He's probably not a Mormon. My guess would be he's a christian scientist. My honest advice would be stay away from him.

My advice to you is give him back to himself. This is going to cause a propblem if you two get married and have children.
Its not the amount of faith that you have that is important to God but the Object of your faith.
All the faith in the world will not make God heal you if He wants you to go to the doctor instead.

I work at an E.R and we have had patients that refuse treatment because of their religion (I never understand why they come in the first place) It is not illegal to refuse treatment , there are questions of legality that arise when the child is under the age of 18. I would consider this because you are talking about vaccinations (how will you get your child into school) broken limbs and everything that can happen to a child. It will be tough!

He is Mentally Ascending to the Fact that GOD can heal a person. This is good, and a necessary to begin to Recieve your Healing by FAITH. But, you got to Learn how to Recieve your Healing by FAITH through your Spiritman. If all your doing to get Healed is Mentally Ascending, and you don't know how to Recieve your Healing by FAITH, you better get to a Doctor (Praise GOD for Doctor's) and take your Pill's etc., or you might go Home (Heaven) early!!.

Certainly he is not a Mormon. Mormon's go to doctors and some Mormon's are brilliant world class doctors. Huntsman cancer research center, Primary Children's Hospital, etc. have Mormon doctors.
Probably Christian Science or , just has faith and hates doctors.

He might be a Jehovah's Witness or Church of Christ (Scientist) maybe? I think they do not like doctors.
God put doctors and the ability for them to learn on this earth for a reason. I see no reason why God could not use the skills of the doctors to help.

If God could heal everybody, and cure them of whatever disease they suffer from, why do so many people die so painfully? I believe in God, and if God loves us all, I think he'll be happy if we used any means possible to rid ourselves or other people from pain. Doctor's are there to ease the pain - use them. :)

Knowing the corruption in some of the African states, they probably paid the blind man to act blind and then act like it was a miracle in order to gain new converts. It's sad, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's happened before.

Who do you think is responsible for the increased knowledge of the doctors? God is!
Go to the doctor.

There are some people who have had their children taken away because they refuse to provide them medical treatment.
If you intend to marry this freak, you should seek counseling for yourself.
He is a disaster waiting to happen and may take others with him.
If he developed a life threatening, contagious disease (smallpox?), would he carry on as if nothing was wrong with him? (yes)
He is insane. It's just that simple.
