Prayer Studies

RE: Prayer Studies

Actually, I'm blaming theists for configuring their beliefs- either beforehand or retroactively- so that no good science experiments can ever be conducted, and then turning around to blame the scientists.

I also guarantee you that if these studies had yielded positive results for prayer, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Which is part of the problem; the only results theists will accept are the ones that confirm their pre-existing beliefs. All others are the fault of "poor experiments."
