NOW REMEMBER KIDS, BRUSH TWICE DAILY AND VISIT YOUR DENTIST ONCE EVERY 6 MONTHS FOR A CHECKUP.

Stephen, I assume you are talking about one of the charismatic miracles where regular fillings were supposedly turned to gold. Even one of their preachers was found to be lying...a simple look at his dental records showed his regular fillings had been replaced by gold ones in the normal way.

Here is a skeptical link (even more interesting that the skeptics are Christians in this case...these guys are nuts even to the other fundies).

Here's some letters from believers <a href="http://www.weblinker.com/gervais/more.html" target="_blank">But I didn't have any fillings...</a>
