Do you know that there have been cases were cancer cells miraculously disappeared from patients without a trace? Yep,these people were very religious. Also, doctors believe that a person being religious help them fight diseases better than a non religious person and that's why there are such things as spiritual support in hospitals now a days.
Please state a single source that religion has cured cancer in any way. I'll make a bet that you can't. ;)
The fact is, we know that cancer sometimes goes into a natural remission, that's part of how our bodies have evolved to work. It has nothing to do with religiosity.(Cole WH, Everson TC: Spontaneous Regression of Cancer. WB Saunders, Philadelphia, PA. 1966 )
Prayers to help fight diseases and help people get through surgeries have been shown empirically not only to not work, but also to sometimes have bad correlations.(http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12082681/ns/health-heart_health/t/power-prayer-flunks-unusual-test/)
Please give me a single scientific study that shows being religious in any way causes one to be more likely to recover from a disease. I'm betting you can't.
I will admit that after searching (for 5 mins) I couldn't find a site so I quit. But, it is how ever proven that those with religious believes coop better with cancer.

My friend, justify does not mean make true, it merely means to provide evidence in the defense of said object.
Edit: or to provide sufficient reasoning of it's character.
If you justify something, you are basically given a reason why you believe something is true. If you justify an answer, you are giving a reason why the answer is true
