Comment prayer study (Score 1) 1156
The comments posted about the Duke study on prayer are based on a posting that- in error- posted only PART of the results...and I quote:
"DURHAM, N.C. - Distant prayer and the bedside use of music, imagery and touch (MIT therapy) did not have a significant effect upon the primary clinical outcome observed in patients undergoing certain heart procedures, researchers at Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI), Duke University Medical Center, the Durham Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) and seven other leading academic medical institutions across the U.S. have found. Therapeutic effects were noted, however, among secondary measures such as emotional distress of patients, re-hospitalization and death rates. "
THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS WERE NOTED...AMONG DEATH RATES?!
It seems to me that says it ALL.
As for "pseudo -science"...Even Einstein ...AND more recent TOP science professionals...realized there is more to be learned with an OPEN mind...
