Does the Quran support Theocracy?

There was a religious group in the US who simply refuse to take medicine and try to heal through prayer. This is not it. But we sort of believe in things like playing therapeutic music to the sick, sending Reiki energy to the sick, praying on behalf of the sick, praying together with the sick or making visualizations about the sick can and does contribute to their healing. There was even a proposition, before the invasion of Iraq by George W. Bush, to send advanced meditators to the Middle East, to try to raise the energy level of this geography (and therefore promote peace in the region).

This idea that there are gods and aliens and that you can ask them for help and they will freely give it to you because they are so kind and nice is an ancient idea.

You can setup experiments where you can pray for people and you can do statistical analysis and you’ll find out prayer doesn’t work.
Such things has already been done.

I have done it as well using a coin toss. Many coin tosses. You get nearly 50% heads and nearly 50% tails.
It doesn’t matter which alien you pray to.

Churches aren’t interested in doing an analysis. They don’t want to know if their prayer works. Finding out the truth, discovering is not their goal. They want to continue to live in their world of make believe.
They want to believe that prayer works.

It is funny that they pray to get cured or they pray to get a job and things of a statistical nature.
Why don’t they pray for knowledge? It would be crystal clear that the favorite alien or your favorite god is not going to give you information.

Yes, they have a lot of difficulty in accepting that they are made of atoms. A lot of theists have a problem with that.

Listening to music, doing something that makes you feel good probably has an effect on your health. It reduces stress levels. It is not good to be in constant stress.
