293. "Testimonials" are weak as evidence, but strong as stories.
Humans are more easily moved by stories than statistics. A single story, such as "I got a job worth 1 million yen the day after I quit my company," is more memorable than something like "What percentage of 1000 people experienced this effect." That's why testimonials are very powerful in the spiritual market. This does not necessarily mean that testimonials are lies. It simply means that even if they are true stories, they do not prove a universal law.
