Homeopathy and quacks versus science


I know this one's been floating around the blogosphere for a while, but it finally made its way to me at a time when I needed something lighthearted and amusing:

Best quotes:
"Well, science doesn't know everything." Well, science knows it doesn't know anything, otherwise it would stop ... But just because science doesn't know everything doesn't mean you can fill in the gaps with whatever fairytale most appeals to you."
..."nutritionist" isn't a protected term. Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist. "Dietitician" is the legally protected term. "Dietician" is like dentist, and "nutritionist" is like tootheologist."
"I'm sorry if you're into homeopathy. It's water. How often does it need to be said? It's just water. You're healing yourself. Why don't you give yourself the credit?
When reason doesn't persuade, all that's left is mockery.
