I'd disagree with you on that point and I'm quite sure Dancing Steef will too. You really need to learn how to talk to religious people.

If you want to change then ya don't only have to pray and mean it, but ya also have to be patient. When God's healing a person it can take long or short time. And He wants to make us grow stronger in our faith and for that matter he also wants us to grow stronger in our prairs.
