B. Prayer comes from the personal spirit to God, who is Spirit. Thus answers to prayer are received in the spirit. Testimony from the praying person is proof that it worked for them.
As in the article above, testimony from patients that a drug “worked for them” is enough for doctors to note its efficacy - even when they lack scientific proof of how it works or what it does.

A: Touché. (I knew there's examples, MMS being one, I was just curious what, if any, you could name)/
B: Still not any amount of evidence that prayer solves any issues.
Corruption in pharmaceuticals (accepting a paycheck for fraudulent results) is nothing new. Nor is the fraud that is religion.

There’s lots of fraud in religion. Some from ignorance, some from malice. You don’t rely on MSM to deliver truth, why would you accept religion as a conveyor of Truth?
You could certainly call the personal testimony from a praying person a placebo effect. And you would be scientifically accurate.
