I have added some info regarding the power of healing. There have been many 'natural born healers' in the history of mankind. Magnetism has been said being the main attribute of these blessed people. CHITRANI-08 jAN/06-21.12 (GMT+1)

This user clearly had no grasp of what is considered appropriate content on Wikipedia. I've removed his entire mini-essay -- which should have been done long ago. Cgingold 23:11, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Not factual

You can't say he had healing powers. Anything supporting the view that it's possible to heal people mysitcally does not belong on Wikipedia as it has no factual evidence.

This is absolute rubbish, and completely ahistorical.

Be that as it may, Lots of people believe in faith healing, and Wikipedia is not a place to say that they are wrong. --Guthrie 22:29, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
