But since I've been saying all along that faith is A-religious, it can act in the positive or negative.
But the nocebo exists, as do paradoxical instances of its result in placebo based trials. Is written right there. You can't dismiss it simply because it's an unknown entity to a slightly larger degree than placebo.
Which, by the way, still doesn't act in the way you've said it does. I don't know how many times you can ignore this point.
