An interesting control group that would be! (in the experiment re-trial).
One group to pray for their health and another to pray for their death. All
participants being true believers. How would one really get someone to pray
for death of another and really mean it?.....aha...lots of possible
participants in the middle east.

A dilemma for God. Which finger to bring down from the sky? The death or the
health? Should he penalise those that pray for death? Death to all for
trying to control God with a science experiment? What time zone is He in?
Will these prayers keep Him up or will the grim reaper do overtime while the
Boss sleeps?
