"I sometimes still catch myself hoping to find validity for acupuncture
and TCM. I think it is indeed “hope” that drives people to alternative
medicine. We want to believe that when scientific knowledge falls short,
there is another way to gain control of our bodies. The desire for hope
is so strong, that perfectly intelligent people can blind themselves
beyond basic reason."
What’s the point of acupuncture? A TCM practitioner wants out
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
