Amen, Sista!
Miracles are happening all around us. Some of us just choose to turn away from them...
People that discredit God have scales over their eyes. They can not hear, see, know or speak the truth because they choose to turn away from the living God.
Romans 1:18-31 is an awesome passage worth taking a look at. We will all be held accountable for what we do and don't do. God has revealed Himself to all of us.
It could be in the beauty and glory of a sunrise or sunset, the way ocean wave roll (and crash) on to the beach...the highest snow covered peaks...trillions of snow flakes and not one is identical. The way baby laughs...and the way a man and woman fall in love.
I stand in awe with all that He has created. I worship my Creator...not His creation. This is but a shadow of things to come!

Why is it so easy to discredit God? You're kidding again, right?
How about because God is a fraudulent concept and the only evidence in support of God is all derived from a single source... a man made source.
You can credit God with whatever you like... miracles, answered prayers, creation, awe inspiring sunsets and the like but that doesn't make him anymore real. It's all just a lot of nonsense after all, isn't it? ... because after you give God credit for the good around you you must also give him credit for the bad... Has it ever rained on your parade? That's Gods work. Got weeds in the garden... a bee sting... a birth defect child... a chronic illness... an alcoholic uncle???? ...all of that would have to be weighed into God's 'miracles' too.

Non Christians do not discredit God. They may not believe in him but that is something different.
What does get discredited is the actions and ideas of the so called Christians whose actions, words and deeds are frequently at odds with what is written in the bible and the way God would expect them to behave!!
It is the extremists and zealots that are taking over Christianity that are doing so much to damage Christianity, put people off religion and in doing so actually preventing the spreading of the word of God.

Religion explained things for people back when there wasn't enough information and knowledge on most topics, especially scientific ones. It gave magical explanations for things people didn't understand, so they wouldn't have to ask questions. This is especially useful for the ruling class, because it was easier to keep peasants in line if they were told that God wants them to be poor, obey their lords and masters, etc. It kept women in line and at home because God said they were lower than men. Religion is control.
Well, now we have scientific explanations for things. We know the world wasn't created in six days, that no boat could could two of every animal, and that we did in fact evolve just as other creatures have. We don't really need the bible or God. Both are a crutch for those who cannot face a world where what they see is what they get, and when its over...Its over. So they seek out something that will tell them there is someone out there that loves them no matter what and so long as they obey him, they wont really die when they die. It's a nice thought, but that's all it is...a nice thought.

OK. Other than her book there seem to be no other referrences to this. Do you think that if it was for real there would be some research being done, some articles being written. I think if she was actually regrowing a leg like a human starfish or something every medical university and drug company lab would be on it like flies on ****.
I am sorry, but everything about this says hoax!
I hope somebody besides myself was foolish enough to try doing a search on this.

Why do people find it so easy to believe in a being for which there is no evidence?

It is easier to try to discredit God if you are a person who does not want to live in the will of God. Bitterness is human nature. It is easier to be bitter than to have faith in God which is what it takes to receive a miracle from God. Without faith, our requests for miracles are void.

Because no mortal can prove the existance of God.... only God can prove His existance... and He will only do that for those who honestly seek Him in The Way He prescribes.

Because your god doesn't exist. And none of that can be proven to come from a god.
Your god is nothing.
