There Are No Atheists in Surgery Beds

A true story by Shoshanna Silcove: "It has been said there are no atheists in foxholes. I would add nor are there any in surgery beds. The fantastic doctors worked on me furiously for over 14 hours. Just a few more ounces of blood and it would have been an eternal dirt nap for me. I was lucky." Full Story

Glad they saved you! It’s such a shame people don’t also listen to them in our day and age in respect of Vaccines.

Why bring in vaccines
