The other side gets it wrong by treating medicine as the only real care. Faith healing can give people hope and calm, and maybe that helps some people hold on longer. I know that's hard to prove, and I'm not sure how to argue it, but it's my gut feeling.
The other side makes a fair point that medicine is proven and faith alone probably is not enough, and I am honestly not sure how to argue back. My gut still says hope and faith can matter for saving lives in ways that are hard to measure, even if I cannot prove it.
Maybe the real question is which kind of care reaches people medicine cannot. My opponent is right that medicine is proven and I am not sure how to argue with that. Still, my gut says faith and hope can save some lives in ways that are hard to measure.
