"The Power of Belief" Screening September 24, 2009

For our August meeting, Phoenix Objectivists will watch an ABC News Special done by John Stossel titled: "The Power of Belief".

In this 1999 report, John Stossel explores how the things we believe can impact our lives—and discovers the silliest of superstitions and strongest of faiths can have a huge impact on our minds, bodies, and wallets.

In the process, he covers everything from Santa Claus to voodoo including: therapeutic touch, channeling, near death research, astrology, psychic hotlines, the placebo effect, iridology, spoon bending, faith healing, and more!

Running time for this video will be an hour and we will discuss the points brought up in it afterward.

Please join us for an informative and intelectually provocative evening!
