I think faith/religion plays a part in our conditions only if you believe it does. I was forced up Catholic. I don't believe that the Catholic God is going to cure me if I pray every night. On the other hand, the rest of my relatives are very Catholic and pray for everything under the sun.

My reaction to faith/religion is the same as my reaction to non-traditional treatments. Maybe herbs, acupuncture, tinctures, better diet, more exercise etc will help alleviate the symptoms, but I'm not giving up pharmaceuticals in exchange. I believe in pharmaceuticals and take them religiously.

Hope that helps.
