Help: jumped on for seeking scientific proof of spiritual healing

Uck... well... yes, I take your point.

But if you say that indoctrination may produce this benefit, to be fair you have to weigh up the potential damage caused by indoctrination. Which I would argue is a lot, and more significant than the perceived gain of this study, so overall it's bad. And that's before even looking at the morality of indoctrination.

That's if this study is even a good one, it may be, I don't know. I'd have to look into it further.
