ASHLAND, OR - Local man Christopher Bardo was instantly, miraculously cured of his severe depression disorder after a friend showed him a Bible verse about anxiety being a sin.

Bardo had asked his friend to meet up and discuss his ongoing battle with depression and anxiety. The friend met him at a park Monday morning.

"I really need help," Bardo said. "Sometimes I don't even want to get out of bed in the morning. It's a serious problem. I'm trusting God with everything I have, but I also need some medical attention I think."

"Not so fast," his friend interjected. "Do not be anxious about anything," he then read aloud from his Bible. "See? It's right there. So I think we're done here."

The man's depression instantly cured itself after his friend read the Bible verse in a condescending tone. "It's a miracle!" he said. "The chemical imbalance in my brain has been fixed and I no longer have to worry about anything, thanks to this guy who read me one Bible verse."

"He didn't even bother trying to empathize with me or get to the root of my mood disorder," he said, shaking his head in near disbelief. "Just read the Bible verse and took off. Amazing."
