No surprise to rational minds. But praying for other people to recover
from an illness is ineffective, according to the largest, best-designed
study to examine the power of prayer to heal strangers at a distance.
The study found that those who had people praying for them had as many
complications as those who did not. In fact, one group of studied
patients who knew they were the subject of prayers fared worse!
This study only focused on those being prayed for, not those sick
praying for themselves. Those being prayed for didn't even know, in
many cases, they were being prayed for. Jesus said faith is the key to
healing. So, if the sick weren't believing themselves, it wouldn't
matter who was praying for them. They must believe in God's power to
heal them, themselves.

Excellent response! And it really isn't so much the quantity of
faith, but is the quality, the purity, the selfless humility of
faith whose countenance shines like the Sun and moves mountains.
So it is good that the devoutly-religious Atheists obsessively,
rabidly, hate and ineptly criticize Jesus Christ & his Ekklesia
for the short space of time they are allotted: Because it helps
to test the loyalty of the true believer's faith in the face of
such abominable blasphemers who assuredly know not what they do;
for if they did, then they most assuredly would NOT be doing it.
In Vigilance,

It's fun to watch the "religious mind" trip itself up. ~:?)
