Cite, please, for any actual proof of the existence of either. (Hint: The Kirlian aura is not a “Human Energy Field,” not being a thing found only around human bodies.)
You can’t prove jack if you ain’t got jack. Wherever did you get the idea that piling anonymous stories upon unsubstantiated claims would work on a site dedicated to fighting ignorance?
You don’t need to explain the how, you need to show proof of works. If someone claims their car can do 200mph, you don’t need to know how the engine works to see proof of the speed.
You are always making claims that you can’t substantiate. This might be expected from those on SD that have been here a year or less. You, OTOH, have no excuse. You, by far, write more checks that your ass can’t cash than any other poster on SD I’ve known. Then we continually have to ask you to substantiate it, and you continually crawfishing out of it without ever claiming you’re wrong, but just making up more unsubstantiated bullshit to follow which repeats the cycle. When pressed, you’ll eventually cave in with cites of pseudo-scientists or use more anecdotes which you think still qualifies for good evidence.
Not sure if it has ever been suggested or not, but seems like there should be a limit of how many times a poster can make a claim without ever having to substantiate it. We can cut some slack to newbies. You would think lekatt’s pony would have learned a few more tricks by now. Seems like he exceeds his quota of what should be allowed.
How did faith healers in ancient days do what they do
Now where in hell does it say anything about proof of their accuracy, If
anyone is off topic or out of line it is you and the rest of your skeptic friends.
Your posts #16 and #21 are the cause of any supposed hijacking. You don’t get to make unsubstantiated claims then say that questioning them are off-topic.
Obviously, there will be little/no objective evidence for the ‘ancient faith healings’, we can surmise that currently active practicioners of said ‘faith healing’ would have the same tools a thier disposal - which is what you did when you posted this and brought the ‘debate’ to the current times -
<bolding mine> Now, back up your claims with actual objective evidence or admit that you cannot.
To me, the interesting question is about what time in history was your outcome actually better if you went to a regular physician as opposed to a faith-healing fraud when you were really sick?
Reading about some of the medical practices of the past, seems that avoiding the doctors was actively good for your health until reasonably recently …
While science based medical care has steadily improved over the centuries, there has been no improvement at all when it comes to faith healing-it’s stuck on the bottom rung, mired in superstition, flim-flam and tradition.
Of course, that’s just one translation. I suppose it might also be rendered as “vitality,” unless Greek has a completely different word for that. Anybody know?
I also wonder whether “bleeding” here means hemophilia, or really bad menstrual cycles, or something else.
