Hypnosis Or Miracles
I saw with my own eyes how Benny cured many people on the stage. I saw the crippled walk. I saw the deaf hear and I saw the blind see.
All these can be explained by hypnosis. For example, if a person believes that he can walk, that’ll activate neural muscles in his brain that have never been activated before.
Some positive-thinking cancer patients, seeing all the “miracles” might think positively. His brain will release endorphins and turn off the pain. Heck, even the way he thinks may interfere with the way his cells work and cure the cancer.
The patients do not want to embarrass Benny. So all patients have the subconscious intensive to do their best to look cured. Many of the cured diseases were probably not as bad as it really were.
Also I didn’t see diseases that cannot be cured by positive thinking.
I didn’t see those who do not have legs grow legs. I also saw some people that weren’t cured. I guess their diseases were so bad that not even hypnosis could fix it.
All those restrictions wouldn’t happen if God were the real source. Or is it? Who knows if God just demands more faith for more complicated “divine intervention”?
Many scientists and skeptics simply say that all these are hypnosis. So let’s get the hell out of here. There is nothing to see.
I would disagree with those overtly skeptic opinion. There are plenty to see whatever the explanation might be.
While the miracles may not really be such depending on your definition of miracles, Benny is someone really worth seeing. Hypnosis or God (the latter is also a possibility) for no matter what I saw many lives improved.
If it were hypnosis, then it’ll be evidence on how positive thinking can alter your life for the better. Then we’ll probably have hypno-therapists healing stroke patient with hypnosis.
So there are plenty to see folks. By seeing, we can learn some ways to improve our lives by pushing the boundary of what we think is possible.
The way religious people think makes God look like He exists even if he doesn’t. However, the way scientists think makes God look like he doesn’t exist even if he does.
If God really exists and we can cure patients by believing in Him, then the phenomenon will happen regularly. After something happens regularly, the scientific community will simply classify the miracle as a natural event and put some banal words like “hypnosis” to explain it.
After all, natural phenomena can simply be God’s answering machine at work.
Isn’t our very existence a miracle? Millions of DNA codes fine-tuned to make us. It becomes so natural that scientists simply put that as natural phenomena.
As a businessman, I care little whether something positive happens because of evolution, hypnosis, suggestion, or God. Whatever it is, I believe that it’s something amazing to admire, ponder, learn, examine, and mass-produced.
