It's the Placebo Effect we are talking about here, not generic faith, which is why I didn't quote the part of your post about Religious faith. That's *your* thread. This is empirical faith, which should be an oxymoron but actually isn't.
The belief is based on scientific testing and knowledge. You believe that the person you are getting it from has been trained and that the drugs have been tested and developed over many years.


But what point do you wish to make about it?
