Science versus Miracles: Curing the Lame, Blind, Deaf and Dumb

B Premanand
Pentecostals and some other
Christian groups conduct meeting every year claiming to cure the blind, deaf,
dumb and lame and also other incurable diseases. They get forms filled up by
the people about their ailments and collect money in the guise of donations.
The patients donate generously hoping for a cure by divine intervention.
At the prayer meeting, a blind
person is brought to the stage and after prayer, the healer passes his hands
over the eyes, and he gets sight. A dumb person is brought and after prayer, he
starts speaking A deaf person is brought and he starts hearing. Like wise a
lame person is cured of his lameness and he walks from the stage. 
Experiment: 107
Effect: Curing the Lame, Blind, Deaf and Dumb.
Props: 1” padding at the heels in one of the shoes.
Method:  The blind, the dumb
and the deaf are acting. The lame one has a 1” padding in the heels of one
shoe. After removing the shoe, the healer prays and massages the leg of the
person and pulls it. Putting on the shoe (the padding is stealthily removed) he
walks from the stage without limping.
