I'm going to suggest we pray for Brian that he loose his Dancing Queen fixation .. not that there's anything wrong with that!

But it kind of works either way.

Do you find incense to be helpful? Perhaps a nice chant? Eye of newt?
Definitely.

We know that the placebo effect is modified by many things, the colour of the pills, pills vs injections, the level of pomp and theatre, the perception of the person administering it, the perceived cost of the placebo etc.

Stands to reason that those sorts of things will also make certain types of prayer more effective. So yes, all the runny candles bells and smells.

Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken."
