Do you know of any real world examples in which a problem has a potential scientific solution and a potential spiritual solution, and the spiritual solution is more effective?

MODERATORS
I'm not religious, but lately I've been having a lot more appreciation for the lessons in the world's religions.
People don't like the idea of being judged, but reality will ruthlessly wipe you and your bloodline out of existence, and in that way it doesn't matter if you want to be judged or not, you will be judged and erased from history if you come up short.

There's an interesting new model, " the hormonal model " instead of the calorie model. It correlates well with the rise of obesity in the West and now in the east.
If the hormones are out of balance, the body cannot reach homeostasis, which it really wants to do.
Looking at it as a spiritual failure, puts people to disadvantage to fix the problem. Which is to get out of hormonal dysregulation

Gluttony: the word we use to distinguish between those with a high metabolism and those with a low one.
Seriously, this is asinine. No, the obesity epidemic is not a spiritual one. It's a cultural health and science one, because we haven't had normal chemicals in our bodies in a century.
