FaithHealingandMedicalAttitude

AtageneralmeetingoftheWesternAustralianbranchoftheBritish MedicalAssociation,heldonWednesday.July18,theHicksonFaith.HealingMissionwasdiscussed.Thefollowingresolutionswerearrivedat:-

(1)Thatmembersofthebranchshouldnotactivelyassociatethemselvesinanywaywiththemission.

(2)Thatthebranchisofopinionthatinordertothoroughlytestthe cureorotherwiseofpersonstreatedbyanyfaith-healingmethods,itis necessarythatthediagnosisofthediseaseshouldbefirstmadebycompetentmedicalmen,preferablybyoneormorespecialistsinthatdisease,and thatafterthepatienthasundergonetreatmentbyfaithhealing,thepatient shouldagainbeexaminedbythesamemedicalmen.Onlyinthisway,the branchthinks,cananysatisfactoryopinionastothevalueoffaithhealing bearrivedat.
