deird1: Buffy and the rocket launcher, with text "best present ever" (Buffy rocket launcher)
Excuse me while I briefly go religious and political simultaneously:

Honour physicians for their services, for the Lord created them. … The skill of physicians makes them distinguished, and in the presence of the great they are admired. … The Lord created medicines out of the earth, and the sensible will not despise them. … He gave skill to human beings that he might be glorified in his marvellous works. … My child, when you are ill, do not delay, but pray to the Lord, and he will heal you. … Then give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; do not let him leave you, for you need him. There may come a time when recovery lies in the hands of physicians, for they too pray to the Lord that he will grant them success in diagnosis and in healing, for the sake of preserving life. He who sins against his Maker will be defiant towards the physician.
Sirach 38:1–15



In other words: "Stop ignoring doctors and insisting God will heal you! God gave you doctors and medicine! What else do you want?"
