Mathew 17:21 can only be found in older prints. Newer bibles do 17:20 to 17:22
Do not use scripted Prayer like an NPC. Speak from the heart, and ask directly with a unique message. Say it outloud.
Fasting can starve cancer, while the prayer is a command.
Matthew 17:21 does not say fasting and prayer cure cancer or every illness. It concerns casting out a demon, and the verse is omitted from many modern translations because it is absent from the earliest manuscripts, not because someone concealed a universal cure.
“Fasting can starve cancer” is also a misleading oversimplification. Researchers have studied controlled fasting as a possible supplement to treatment, but that does not show that starving yourself cures cancer. Tumors obtain energy through complex biological processes, and depriving a cancer patient of food can also weaken the patient.
Calling prayer a “command” adds nothing scientifically. There is no demonstrated mechanism by which a unique spoken prayer orders a tumor to disappear. Your final comment about my sexuality is unrelated and only avoids defending the medical claim.
What on God's Green Earth is smarter than a Human?
We're literally made in God's image.
“Made in God’s image” is a religious claim, not evidence that humans are the smartest beings possible. Human intelligence does not prove it either, since you are simply assuming that intelligence is what “God’s image” means. Humans are highly intelligent, but also limited, irrational, biased, and frequently mistaken.
Other animals also have cognitive strengths humans do not possess to the same degree. Some birds can remember the locations of huge numbers of stored food items, dogs can detect and interpret scents far beyond human ability, and some primates outperform humans in rapid visual-memory tasks. Human intelligence is broader, but it is not superior in every cognitive category. If anything, the uneven and limited nature of human cognition makes the comparison to a supposedly perfect and all-knowing God harder to defend.
