The Ultimate Homeopathic Lunacy
September 2, 2011 6:17 PM   Subscribe

Just when you thought you heard the craziest homeopathic remedy... Homeopathy is of course a complete fraud, other than the actions of the placebo effect. The idea of diluting something so much that it does not carry a single atom of the original product is silly. Homeopathic remedies with ingredients such as "the light of Venus" or "a thunderstorm" is even sillier, but they don't have a candle to the latest offering.

Hey everybody! It's time to gather round once again for that dear old Metafilter tradition of Point and Laugh at Homeopathy!

I mean, hey! It never gets old! What'll those whackos think of NEXT, eh? Oh, and remember, kids every 10th comment or so needs to be some kind of extolling of the unassailable virtues of pharmaceutical drugs!

LET'S GO!

So, homeopathic remedies are kinda of like audiophile equipment?

I would comment, but I'm having a hard time determining how the OP feels about this.

I thought a flamebait Apple post a day kept the homeopath away.
