[quote=Anonymous]Here is the NY Times article from 2006 that discusses the scientific study on prayer http://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/31/health/31pray.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 and here's a link to the study itself https://www.templeton.org/pdfs/press_releases/060407STEP_paper.pdf The NYT article starts like this: Prayers offered by strangers had no effect on the recovery of people who were undergoing heart surgery, a large and long-awaited study has found. And patients who knew they were being prayed for had a higher rate of post-operative complications like abnormal heart rhythms, perhaps because of the expectations the prayers created, the researchers suggested.[/quote]
