I am the science teacher.
I don't believe in religion, but I do believe in spirituality. I think there can be a creative power beyond our perception, just not in the way put forth by religion. That said, I also believe in the healing power of spirituality. I think it goes way beyond prayer. I think prayer is only one way of connecting with spirit. There are other eastern disciplines such as meditation, reiki, spiritual healing, healing touch, chakras and more that also seem to accomplish increased healing or cure.
My own example was visiting a healing touch practitioner after my eye surgery. She focused on healing my retina. After her visit, I developed scar tissue on the retina. The doctor said it was the result of unexplained extra cell growth. I think the healing touch simply overdid it and produced too many cells. That is one example. As you know, there are massive amounts of anecdotal evidence for the power of connecting beyond the physical. I simply think we just don't have the technology, or actual capabilities to properly study it via the scientific method....yet.
