The march of pseudoscience - Ockham's Razor - ABC Radio National (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) (http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/ockhamsrazor/the-march-of-pseudoscience/8585048) ..Amazes me how waffle and rubbish can get swallowed by so many people... The debate about homeopathy is over. These verdicts prove it | Spectator Health (https://health.spectator.co.uk/the-debate-about-homeopathy-is-over-these-verdicts-prove-it/?utm_content=bufferd6613&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer..Homeopathy) sales snow job is still taking tens of millions off gullible people

What amazes me is how much money people will pay for medicines made by a company, that has a tick from government departments, and yet these same medicines have killed people for years, but because this government department still supports the company, the company still sells these products, as saving lives...

Too many people run around saying the other sells snake oil, "so dont believe any of them"...

This process of deny and destroy is being played out through all of society...

I prefer to disbelieve all and find out for myself by researching it for myself...

Probably why I found out a product I was put on, turned out to be deadly during trialls and totally unsuitable for reasons it is promoted, but alas, I am not a doctor...

Wraithe, when you get a chance, check out some of Ben Goldacre's talks. It will answer some of your questions. Very interesting.
