It never seems to end


Small Rant -

Its CNN folks. The new frontier for indoctrination.

http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/health/2008/06/25/gupta.power.of.prayer.cnn

Praying = Health

The same as

Monkeys = Cheese

That link didn't work for me

That link didn't work for me but I found it elsewhere. They didn't mention anything about it being bullshit. I hate how the news tends to always give religion a free pass - actually they also tend to do that with other bullshit - like alternative medicine, past lives, etc - but others they would never think of doing so for (holocaust denial, flat earth, etc.)

Sorry about the link.Maybe I

Sorry about the link.

Maybe I was unclear. CNN is feeding the religious bullshit to the masses by saying that religion is (err wait) "MAY" be good for your health. "Studies" have found that praying "MAY" be healthy. They are not only giving religion a free pass, they are promoting it like it's a wonder drug.

Clever comment here

They should have at least

They should have at least mentioned the placebo effect. Of course if they said prayer doesn't fucking work there go a lot of viewers - and sponsors.
