Cha, Wirth, Lobo study on prayer and in-vitro pregnancy success not only build on Byrd's work (and many others), but they prove that there are statistical observable

Again, too easy!

You mean the report that stated that "we set out with the expectation that we would show no benefit of IP (intercessory prayer)," but was authored by Daniel Wirth, who had previously published many research articles claiming miraculous, supernatural healing. Furthermore, Wirth was not a medical doctor — he has a law degree and a masters degree in, of all things, parapsychology.

You mean the report where the authors would not respond to inquirys about the study?

You mean the study that was "retracted" from the university web-site?

Are you referring to the Wirth that was indicted on felony charges of mail-fraud and transportation of stolen money?

BTW, because researchers don't respond to ONE rabid, foaming at the mouth skeptic like Bruce Flamm probably bodes well for the researchers.

Also, websites at universities for researchers are generally taken down when the researcher leaves the university.

You're not trying to distort these events to portray something sinister about these SCIENTISTS, are you? Heavens, there may thousands of them out there, just willing to lie and distort in the name of scientific progress, mightn't there?
