Also isn't it amazing when it comes to ones health and they come down with a fatal disease they will do whatever it takes to get cured! But the fatal disease of an "unsaved soul" people will avoid Dr. Jesus Christ like the plague go figure that one given the end result is eternal!

Please provide evidence for:
(a) that I have a soul;
Please note: said evidence must be more than "that's what it says in the Bible" as that would lead to a circular argument.
Finally, I should point out that common usage refers "fatal" diseases as ones for which there is as yet no cure.
You're assuming that all nonbelievers believe that they are suffering from the "fatal disease of an unsaved soul" but refuse to do anything about it.
If someone came up to me on the street and told me I had an incurable cancer I'd tell them to bug off, too.
You mean like how Christians don't want to get their bad karma fixed? Or how they don't care if their chakras are out of synch?
You tend to not care about the state of parts of your body you don't believe in.
So, I guess you'll be skipping your visit to the hospital when you have contracted a fatal disease ??
No ? .... I thought so, you, Sir, are a hypocrit!
But the fatal disease of an "unsaved soul" people will avoid Dr. Jesus Christ like the plague
Funny he should mention the Plague. In the middle ages, some people crawled to the church on their hands and knees daily to beg Jesus to spare them from the Plague. It killed a third of the human population of Europe anyway. Today we can cure it with a few dollars worth of streptomycin. So obviously God had nothing to do with it one way or the other, unless maybe it was to light the spark of genius in the people who came up with the concept of antibiotics.
In cannot speak for others,

It's not amazing at all. The strongest Human instint is our survival instinct. Let's alter this first sentence to better illuminate how ridiculous your premise is: "Also isn't it amazing when it comes to ones life and they're being attacked by a knife-wielding madman they will do whatever it takes to get away from him!"
If Dr. Jesus would actually show up, I'd be happy to take his prescription. Dr. Ineffective, invisible, can't be shown to even exist Jesus is not needed.
That is one glorified Pascal's Wager, right there. And just as convincing.
To use his comparison, however, I must ask:
Unfortunately, your answers are "being human", "being human", "The Bible", "because I feel like I am cured", "Heaven", "Heaven/in your heart", and "complete silence/fundiebabble" respectively. None of which are very convincing. So, I think I will continue to worry about real illnesses for now, M' Kay?
Actually, I would NOT do anything to be cured. I would not go to a faith healer, psychic-surgeon, alchemist or any number of other self-named "healers." Their methods have been shown to be useless at best, fraudulent at worst. Patronizing them would be a waste of time and money (which are generally in short supply when when has a terminal illness). Let the hucksters push their useless services on some one else.
I would rather put my time and money towards obtaining and applying proven, or at least reasonable methods of treatment. The treatments of your Dr. Jesus have not been proven, nor are they reasonable (that "you have to have faith" thing your lot talks about so much). Again, let the hucksters push their useless services on some one else.
Prove the 'soul' exists.
...what's that? You can't? Well then. Therefore the 'soul' doesn't exist.
Ergo, all of you fundies are fucked. QED.
It's not amazing at all that most people know fantasy from reality.
You, on the other hand, do not.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
