Description

This is an analysis of sources that relate to the field of research called "efficacy of prayer" which aims to answer the question "does prayer work?" via scientific measurements of health. This field of study has made waves in both the religious world and the non-religious world. I have analyzed these sources under the lens of critical thinking and made two lists of "good" sources and "bad" sources.
