is that true for just you, or for everyone?

The way I see this being true, is only if they're trying to sell you something.
Most New Age people are trying to sell you something in case you hadn't noticed.

Some people here in the USA believe that we have the greatest medical community in the world, even though they're not actually curing many diseases (yet they still believe it)... Why...?
Have you ever heard of diphtheria? Have you ever seen a person sick with it? I haven't and I'm pushing 60 years old. Millions of women held their babies in their arms and watched them die of that horrible disease and now it's considered something historical like buggy whips and high-button shoes--along with scarlet fever, polio, typhoid fever, small pox and the plague. Plague once wiped out 2/3 of the population of Europe. Now when someone gets it they spend a few days in the hospital and it's so unusual it might make the evening news. How many lepers did Jesus cure? A dozen? Two dozen? Science found a way to cure them ALL.

HIV used to be a death sentence. When Magic Johnson was diagnosed HIV positive I cried because I thought the world was going to be robbed of that beautiful smile. Wrong. Modern medicine saved him and he's still going strong. HIV is now a chronic illness.

Perhaps they see something that I don't currently see yet (perhaps that's the snake oil you refer to)...
perhaps you've been fed a load of bull. Human lifespans have doubled in the last 100 years. Without modern medicine I would have been dead 20 years ago. Thanks anyway.

The rates of curing cancer are spotty at best, some get cured and some don't... Yet, some consciously get LOA to work and some don't, based on what I'm observing...
cancer cure rates are constantly growing. If I get a tumor I'm not going to light incense and chant. I'm going to a doctor. I might die anyway, but nobody gets out alive.

But, your implication that I'm gullible is offensive... So I have the choice, I can believe what Steve suggests or because you think your absolutely right well I must believe you then (because you're always right aren't you... Yes you are, you're always right) and those who don't believe you are wrong, aren't they...
yes!
