Religion Has Affected Our Health Preferences And Choices in the different places we find ourselves both geographically and culturally.

Should religion make us prefer death and suffering instead of good health and happiness? I always ponder on this topic, why a certain sect would choose not to go to a hospital rather will consume bottles of oils and water for healing in the guise of a miracle.

Are medical treatments not miracles?
A successful brain surgery is a miracle, the fact that an intravenous drip is given to someone and they get stronger and healthier than the state you they were before is indeed a miracle.
Sometimes it makes one wonder, has religion done more harm than good in the understanding of health? Even the bible says that only the sick need a doctor, doesn't that prove that we need to enjoy good health by seeing a doctor when one is ill? The bible also says that "my people die of lack of knowledge", is that not also proof of how much God wants us to benefit from knowing things and being open to new knowledge? Everyone has a different religion in all parts of the world therefore beliefs differ, however a god who says u need not have good health or enjoy good health products could as well create sick creations right?
