Power of prayer flunks an unusual test
#4
RE: Power of prayer flunks an unusual test
Yeah I read about that quite some time ago. Smiler tests had been done as well. Results showed that prayer had no effect whatsoever. Those who knew they were being prayed for had more complications. It's thought that, being more relaxed and reassured with the knowledge and belief that prayer will assure that you'll be fine meant less drive to survive. Whether that's true or not I don't know. Either way I'm extremely convinced that prayer is totally useless as it has no effect at all. Firmly ruled out.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
