What's Your Favorite Bible Verse?

I personally like God's treatment for leprosy:

The recipe is basically this: "Get two birds. Kill one. Dip the live bird in the blood of the dead one. Sprinkle the blood on the leper seven times, and then let the blood-soaked bird fly off. Next find a lamb and kill it. Wipe some of its blood on the patient's right ear, thumb, and big toe. Sprinkle seven times with oil and wipe some of the oil on his right ear, thumb and big toe. Repeat. Finally kill a couple doves and offer one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. Leviticus 14:2-52."

Who needs modern medicine?

By the way, antibiotics are now used to treat leprosy. The World Health Organization, or WHO, has developed treatment guidelines that include a combination of antibiotics, including the following: rifampin · dapsone · clofazlimine · ethionamide · minocycline · clarithromycin · ofloxacin.......
