POWER OF BELIEF WITH JOHN STOSSEL
Why do so many people put their faith in pseudo-scientific pursuits
such as astrology, alternative medicine and psychics?
The ABC News special "The Power of Belief" anchored and reported by
John Stossel, shows how the silliest of superstitions and strongest of
faiths can have a big impact on our minds, bodies and even our wallets.
Stossel walks on hot coals, visits New Age emporia, checks the accuracy
of his horoscope, and invites a voodoo priest to place a curse on him.
He discovers people are attracted to belief -- often in defiance of
evidence. It begins at a young age, with our capacity for imaginative
play. Stossel talks to a group of children as they create -- and come to
believe in -- an imaginary fox. "There is a fox, there is a fox, I know
it. We saw one, I know it!," says a child.
