Came here to say the same, they never went away. The problem with faith healing though is that the person who needs the healing takes it as a test of their faith. My grandfather had stage 4 cancer and Parkinson's and was taken in by one of these charlatans. He stopped taking his meds and the worst part was my family encouraged him. I was the only naysayer, but I was also the primary caretaker. They didn't have to take care of the fallout from him not taking his meds, I did. Now mind you I was already bit of a black sheep in my family because I was the only atheist, therefore my family was already predisposed to ignoring my advice when it came to anything prayer or faith healing related. He fell about a week after he stopped taking his meds, broke his ribs had a hard time breathing and decided to go to hospice rather than be intubated while his ribs healed. He died a few days later. I blame my family for encouraging him to go to that stupid church. Its been three years, I still refuse to talk to my dad and my uncle.
