Man, I have a feeling this is really going to piss off the Reverend Peter Popoff (warning audio loads with site). Now I’m not even sure what to do with that blessed prayer water he sent me or whether or not I should send him the $17 he asked for. I don’t want to not get that $1,700 to $17,000 that God told him I was going to get. This is quite a conundrum
Prayers offered by strangers had no effect on the recovery of people who were undergoing heart surgery, a large and long-awaited study has found.
And patients who knew they were being prayed for had a higher rate of post-operative complications like abnormal heart rhythms, perhaps because of the expectations the prayers created, the researchers suggested.
Because it is the most scientifically rigorous investigation of whether prayer can heal illness, the study, begun almost a decade ago and involving more than 1,800 patients, has for years been the subject of speculation.
I have a feeling Pat Robertson’s about to issue a fatwah on some scientists.
