"It’s doctors like Dr. Nikiforov who see a medical practice that is not
adequately science-based and fix it, not quacks like Mr. Ji, whose main
interests in cancer seem to be to convince you that chemotherapy kills
and causes far more harm than untreated cancer (wrong), that patients with cancer-causing gene mutations don’t need surgery (wrong), and that natural lifestyle changes and whatever supplements he likes can prevent cancer through the magic of epigenetics (wrong again)."
Mr. Ji isn’t about the careful weighing of evidence.
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.
