RE: Prayer

January 10, 2018 at 4:41 pm

In God:The Failed Hypothesis, Victor Stenger references a study that showed that prayer actually seemed to have a negative effect, perhaps due to performance anxiety.
There was at least one study that showed that prayer helps, but the Doctor who did it was a known fraud and all the other doctors who were credited on the study said they weren't actually a part of it and never consented to have their name put on it.
