This commentary provides a response to the rejoinder by Paal et al. (Journal of Religion and Health. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10943-022-01726-y , 2023), regarding the research of Otaiku (Journal of Religion and Health. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10943-022-01603-8 , 2022) "Religiosity and risk of Parkinson's disease in England and the USA." After providing a brief overview of Otaiku's work, the commentary then addresses each of Paal et al.'s arguments. While agreeing that more research needs to be undertaken, this commentary concludes that Otaiku's research findings are well founded, suggesting that greater religiosity may lower the risk of PD.
