I thought this was an interesting question until I read the details. I believe the Lord could reattach a limb. Your faith argument does not hold any water, though. There are plenty of atheists in this forum with both legs still attached to their bodies. I'm a Christian and can't even see the logic in your argument.

Giovanni Guareshi's Don Camillo, the catholic priest, frequently argues with his Lord. On a question about lightning arresters the Lord is quoted as replying,' How will I know? I am only a carpenter.' He is not an orthopedic surgeon either.
If the leg falls off (like the leg of Barbie doll coming off) with the severed ends sealed, it is a miracle and God wills that the person go one legged.
If the leg got severed because the person disobeyed a physical law (Falling off a height) or a traffic law (Jumping into the traffic)there are enough trauma care hospitals, which might just do the trick if the loser and the limb reach there quickly.
Healing or otherwise is left to God's will.

Please tell me this is satire.
If it is, I'm sorry for not getting the joke, but there really are some religious people who are that crazy out there to think
Anyway, there are animals that have limbs that grow back, and doctors can re-attach limbs under some conditions, but strangely enough, God doesn't see fit to let humans naturally grow back limbs. So the Lord wouldn't reattach it, just some highly trained and dedicated surgeons who certainly wouldn't require as much praise and thanks on a daily basis just for doing their job. Or maybe the surgeons are the instruments of God, you tell me...
There's a whole site about it - see my sources.

I never thought of that!!!! I wondered why my legs were still attached. But do not let your unwavering belief blind you the the ability of others to reattach them. This will become very important if one day you forget your faith and a leg falls off

i believe that having faith is wonderful. props for that. i also believe that if one of your limbs were to fall off, there would be reason for it. god could be putting you through a trial to see if you keep your faith strong in him. he could just be ridding you of it because you dont really need it. however, if it were to fall off, i have faith the lord wouold reattatch it if you prayed to him and if he thought you couldnt live without it. he will do what is best for you in order to keep you serving him.

Congradulations, if your serious this the stupidest thing i have ever seen. Last time i checked every athiest in the world wasn't paroplegic because they lacked faith in god to keep their limbs from falling off. if any paropolegic athiests read this post, will you please raise your right hand so we can test this theory.

You have the wrong concept of God and how he works in our lives. He has given us everything we need so that we can live in peace and be happy. So if your leg falls off it is your job to take advantage of the blessings and opportunities he has given you to solve your problem. People in the healthcare industry are instruments of God's blessings. Use them to help yourself.

Do you believe that an amputated limb would reappear? Okay...fine....believe what you like! I anxiously await your next useless, senseless question. The trolls are getting low on material!
