well, actually they will.   it's a minor sin for a christian blessed to 
refuse aid to those in need, and a major sin if they are in dire need.   I 
rather like it.   If a posse wants free, continuous healing they need to take 
a preacher, which means he's always risking his neck to keep them, and 
everyone else, around.   every arcane backgound has a severe disadvantage, 
blessed have sinnin, and if they do healing, then they have to deal with the 
consequenses of not having enough faith to do god's work.

Ah, but there's the rub, see a Blessed wouldn't be going around healing just
anyone;  I mean, nothing more embarrassing than to say you're gonna heal
someone, do the televangelist "You are HEEEAAALLLED!!!" bit, & nothing
happens.  I dunno, I still think the receiving similar wounds for not making
the roll is a bit harsh.  Maybe Wind loss, plus you can't use that blessing
for a day....
