Great message Jane.  

Yet, solitary / anecdotal cases of success OR failure is not science or 
scientific.  Unfortunately, individuals (despite their acclaimed principles) 
use what ever they can for their own advantage and to make their own point. 
Is the scientist selling hope with your case report.  In medicine we call that 
a "snake oil salesman" which is euphemism for homeopathy. 

To me it looks like on Goanet, the scientist is selling hype and the padre is 
selling salvation.:=))

Years ago, my mother used to watch DOORDARSHAN programmes every evening and the 
messages that were constantly flashed  on screen were :-
(1) "hum Do Hamare Do" and (2) strict warning to get an annual cancer check-up.
 
My mother strictly followed the 2nd message and would go for her annual cancer 
check-up
