Prayer Studies

[Chas]

I'm saying that I agree with your conclusion, but that I disagree with the idea that the scientific methodology is purely at fault, considering the amorphous concept the experiments sought to test. Any scientific measure of prayer is pointless because the god concept is formulated to defy falsifiability, and is often changed on the fly to keep it that way; just criticizing the methodology behind the experiment is missing the root cause, is my point.

So you blame theism because some scientist conduct bad experiments? I just blame bad scientists for conducting poor experiments.
