What in the ever-loving fuck does that mean.
The placebo is the object on which ones faith is focused.

I've never seen a theist admit it before, although I don't think he understands what he is admitting.
Placebo effect, confirmation bias and indoctrination. The unholy trinity that keeps people thinking there is something to religion beyond their own mind.
Secondly, I'm admitting nothing other than the above point; faith heals...
But I like the fact that since you guys can't dispute what I'm saying, you try and flip the script and act like science has been acknowledging faith based healing all along.
