HOMEOPATHY- CHANGING TRENDS...

 

Sick people made sicker by science..?

8th December 2008

This means that the evidence of how dangerous many drugs in current circulation

really are is ignored, or under-reported by 95%. As evidence based medicine goes

I would say this is a fairly damning statistic if true.

The comics making rationalism funny  7/12/08

'From the laboratory come Richard Dawkins, Simon Singh and Dr Ben Goldacre. From

the well of whimsy come Ricky Gervais, Dara O’Briain, Mark Thomas, Stewart Lee,

Josie Long and — to roll out the cliché — many, many more.' 'Indeed, it’s the

scientists who are cocking the strongest snooks. Goldacre will rip into

homeopathy, alternative therapies and the media with the kind of cracks and

calculation familiar to readers of his book, Bad Science. Dawkins, who was a

great friend of the out-and-proud atheist Douglas Adams, will throw in a few

gags as he demolishes pro-creationism arguments...'
