That there may be some way to manipulate water structures is one thing, but prayer directly implicates some sort of super natural or intelligent intermediary in between the intention or desire for a particular circumstance and the actual initiation or succession of a particular circumstance. In at least what I have seen the actual science spoken of in this documentary there are only really material, natural explanations given. But, I haven't finished the full doc. Thanks a ton for posting this though. I am definitely going to have to look into this. Super interesting, for sure.
Basically I agree with you Nick, about being an atheist and a materialist etc. etc.
However last night I was watching the old black and white movie about the
Miracle of Lourdes the story of a young girl named Bernadette who saw the virgin
in Lourdes, France.That was all about miracle water too. I was raised a very
progressive Protestant and have since become as you are but I found myself
wanting to believe that she saw the Virgin etc. etc. and I was rooting for her.
Some people were and are cured by that water in Lourdes. Maybe it's mass
hysteria or something too. Anyway I found myself rooting for this poor girl
who was trying to convince people she saw and talked to the Virgin even
though I am neither Catholic or religious at all.
