Guess What? Prayer Doesn't Do Anything!

Study: Praying Won't Affect Heart Patients - Yahoo! News: "Does praying for a sick person's recovery do any good?

In the largest scientific test of its kind, heart surgery patients showed no benefit when strangers prayed for their recovery.

And patients who knew they were being prayed for had a slightly higher rate of complications. Doctors could only guess why."

The sad thing is that this will be fought and denied by virtually everyone. I believe it was Nietszche who said, "one need not look further than the insane asylum to prove that faith in an idea means nothing."
