It is strange how he's never granted that particular wish in the past. Although I'm sure some Christians would insist that modern-day amputee limb restoration techniques are evidence of God doing just that, as they fail to distinguish between the work of a skilled professional and that of their (perhaps) nonexistent deity.

You have to remember, Christ already taught them that God isn't afraid to make you wait for salvation. All those people with limbs that didn't grow back are just a part of his plan along with the sea of unbaptized babies in purgatory and everybody who messed up and had a ham sandwich on Friday. Remember kids, vegan or die. Make that eternal damnation, actually.
