I doubt that any mistake in the math can approach the more amusing purpose of the paper being reviewed...
The author measured the mortality and length of stay of people who were already sick and healed (or not) - but for whom an intercessory prayer was said years later, lol.
Quote:Let’s now have a look at the abstract: Typical for medical abstracts it is divided into objective, study design, results and conclusions. It confirms what the title promises, the author researched the effects of remote prayer backwards through time. The patients were hospitalized between 1990 and 1996, while the praying took place in 2000. The author measured mortality and length of stay in the hospital as his variables and concluded that the intervention group fared better on both counts. He therefore concludes that retrograde remote prayer works and should be considered as a useful tool for medical doctors.
