Hi Alea....

As reality is a probability wave affected by
intent,all possible outcomes lie along that
curve.....there is no contradiction or cherry
picking.

If a patient can cure themselves by having
a belief that the medical pill they are taking will
cure them,why can't a priest have a similar
statistical outcome to those with a strong
religious belief.....

You admit that folks can cure themselves
by belief in releasing chemicals,but only the
medical industry can induce that self belief
healing??

hi doma,

you put way too much certainty behind a hypothesis.

if your thesis worked, prayer would succeed in affecting outcomes. but there is no evidence that it does.

a theory has to withstand the things that seem to falsify it.

you are simply cherry-picking the few instances that seem not to disprove your thesis. but to convince, you have to explain the ones that appear to contradict it.
