but quack don't cure cancer, diabetes and dystonia, as Alex DID.
Are you being serious? You really think he has cured these things?
I have to say I pretty closely agree with Dr. Phelps on this one - I don't want to buy Alex's rings because I don't want to support someone who could be ripping people off, creating false hope, and yet refuses to supply even a shred of evidence. Also, I have no idea what those pills are going to do to me...
However...
I think Alex could have cured those things; cancer diabetes and dystonia. I also think many quack cures have cured those things: how many Alex believers also believe in Benny Hinn? He has cured the same things! The fact is that if you claim your umbrella is magic and wave it at enough cancer patients, statistics will churn up a few really good testimonials about how they just suddenly felt better or about how the cancer then receded. I keep saying this time and time again: you need proper trials and for there to be a majority of users cured (or made immortal!) before you have anything constituting good EVIDENCE let alone PROOF.

Yes, The key word is "enough" patients. How many people with uncurable illnesses have used alex's rings ? Maybe 1000 (1 out of 100 customers)? How many positive testimonials about severe disease we have? about 100. How many if cured would have posted test.? 1 out of 10 let's say.
So we can count near every patient with serious disease have been cured.
Can your magical umbrella do that?
...You are not using accurate figures and your estimates seem a little off. I think more than one in ten people cured of a serious illness by the rings would have posted testimonials - they would have been absolutely amazed and grateful. At least 5/10, conservatively, would have contacted Alex.
This could all be cleared up if Alex published his records or started keeping proper records now. He could quite easily establish proof of efficacy that way or create a system for followup contacts with his customers. You try asking him -mention Nazis and strippers as much as you want, I still don't think he'll have any time for the idea.
He has nowhere near 100 testimonials as far as I know (have you seen something I haven't?) and whatever the number, the ones that can be fully verified by medical doctors would be lower because he publishes testimonials with no verification.
Even if he had 100 testimonials, I suspect he's sold far more than 1000 rings. This guesswork could go on forever whilst the fact is that Alex either doesn't keep records or refuses to publish them, making speculation virtually useless.

Sure he sold more than 1000 rings (probably about 100 thousands) but most customers haven't serious disease.
And he doesn't publish all testimonials he receives.
Anyway you can find 100 test in his site about serious illnesses cured or greatly diminished with rings.
And I think you overestimated how many people would post test. after been cured. Most people are ungrateful, or lazy, or fear to seem crazy at wearing Rings or all of this things together.
I think 1 out of 10 cured will post test.
