Re: Prayer Success Coefficient
Do the Hindu's or Muslim's have a negative coefficient?
only if they're praying to the wrong god(s). but then, they think their's is the true one (most likely).
i find the whole thing relatively silly. if it helps you feel better, good for you. if the person who's being prayed for feels better, good for them. it's all probably in our heads--look, I've emotional support!. i'm happy!.
there's nothing like knowing people care about and for you. and i think that a better mood helps your health. (better being less stressed, less worried, less angry, etc.) so in effect, these prayers are helping to achieve that better mood.
eh, what do I know? pay no attention to my mainly rambling stuff.

Question. Always Question.
