From the Paper:
"Faith healing is the peculiarly Christian, particularly American, form of transcendentalism that remains as one of the few traditional entities of our culture surviving the transition from the 19th to 20th centuries. As the hallmark year of 2000 approaches, and with it the 21st C., faith healing promises to be with us still, surviving once again the slings of an empirical science that can create super-colliders that will find God (Begley, 1993, p. 57), ducking as always the arrows of the mainstream religious organizations with their claim to philosophical superiority. Identified as a phenomenon based generally in the right-wing sphere of the political spectrum, faith healing draws condescending scorn from the liberal end of the community. Science, the American religious establishment, and the liberal community do not have the right to do so."More papers on Faith Healing in Christianity:
