佢冇指出呢個study的缺失 -- 只要代禱但唔好俾病人知道有人幫您代禱，就乜事都冇啦

星島既翻譯就真係有缺失：
這千八名病人分為三組：一、有人為他們祈禱，而他們不知道有人在旁替他們祈禱。二、沒有人為他們祈禱，他們不知道無人為他們祈禱，此即「控制組」。三、有人為他們祈禱，而他們知道。

根據番文報紙係咁既：The patients were broken into three groups. Two were prayed for; the third was not. Half the patients who received the prayers were told that they were being prayed for; half were told that they might or might not receive prayers.

實情第一組係有人為他們祈禱，而他們知道可能有人在旁替他們祈禱

至於點解唔加埋第四組，即係沙兄既"只要代禱但唔好俾病人知道有人幫您代禱"，睇吓係味乜事都冇，係有原因既：
但凡是參與醫學研究，係要"informed consent"嫁，所以"代禱但唔好俾病人知道"，可以睇成"在冇病人同意下進行治療"，係違反醫學倫理，唔做得嫁！

但係沙兄知道應該要加埋呢一組，可見沙兄冇忘記「耶語錄」，因為呢個乃係禱告既正確態度：
太6:6 你禱告的時候、要進你的內屋、關上門、禱告你在暗中的父、你父在暗中察看、必然報答你。
