在这一答复KE Freedland的（2004年）的意见，RJ Contrada等。（2004），这表明，他提出的统计问题，他的首选解释的调查结果，在原来的文章中得到充分解决。有人认为，方法上的局限性也得到了充分的表征，并没有从生物医学研究的种类不同。讨论的其他问题包括专注于远端与近端因果关系的优点，宗教参与对健康影响的解释机制的可解释性，以及不需要操纵宗教参与的潜在实际应用。文章最后评论的微妙方面的话语，可能不必要的干扰讨论可能的身体健康影响的宗教参与。
In this reply to KE Freedland's (2004) comments on RJ Contrada et al.(2004), it is shown that the statistical issues he raised, and his preferred interpretation of the findings, were adequately addressed in the original article. It is argued that methodological limitations also were fully characterized and do not differ in kind from those of biomedical studies. Other issues discussed include the merits of focusing on distal versus proximal causation, plausibility of explanatory mechanisms for health effects of religious involvement, and potential practical applications that do not require manipulation of religious involvement. The article is concluded by commenting on subtle aspects of discourse that may unnecessarily polarize discussions of possible physical health effects of religious involvement.
