MSNBC - In the largest study of its kind, researchers found that having
people pray for heart bypass surgery patients had no effect on their
recovery. In fact, patients who knew they were being prayed for had a
slightly higher rate of complications. . . Critics said the question of
God's reaction to prayers simply can't be explored by scientific study.
The work, which followed about 1,800 patients at six medical centers,
was financed by the Templeton Foundation, which supports research into
science and religion. It will appear in the American Heart Journal.
The Templeton are ID supporters also. Those scientists who receive their
very large rewards for conflating science and nonsense are selling their
"souls".
