MANTRA
So given your statement:
quote:
I believe I heard Jehovah say that "Mantras are the devil's business, not Mine. Koenig is on record saying that prayer experiments are not about prayer, meaning that as he conducts them, they confirm nothing about Me. So, why should I answer the prayers in such an experiment?" Made sense to me.
it seems that you do not eccept the result of either MANTRA experiment as valid.
Since the fertility experiment has also been brought into question due to lack of replication and unexplained oddities in the reported data it seems that you are rather short of useful results in scientific prayer studies - as opposed to anecdotes.

Re: MANTRA
I begin to think that you are having us all on. Even if your ad hoc "explanation" which you attribute to God, were correct that would not explain the data - unless you assume, for instance, that God tends to favour women under 30.
