Read the reviews. Funny stuff.

It’s also for anyone else.

Edit: this is from Flight of the Concords BTW.

So, I was watching Enemies Of Reason and had an idea I’m sure is not original. Start up a new Homeopathy business selling a new “Super Homepathic” cure all. Advertise the liquid as having the memory of all known substances which cause human ailment. Sell 20ml bottles of distilled water for $50 a pop.

According to Richard Dawkins, in a cup of water, at least one molecule will have passed through the bladder of Oliver Cromwell. From this, it can be inferred (don’t worry about proof) that in a 20ml bottle of water, at least one molecule of the liquid has been in proximity to a substance which causes human ailment during some point in its lifetime (the Earth is estimated to be 4.5 billion years or so old – so this is a reasonable assumption). It’s spent the intervening time becoming more dilute, yet maintaining the “Memory” of this substance.

In order to be taken seriously, it needs to be expensive. It’s not any old crap after all – it’s “Super Homepathic” medicine. $50 a pop is within reach of most people, but pricey enough that you’ll feel awe whilst imbibing it. The stronger the awe, the better the placebo effect, the better the “cure”!

To assuage the guilt, on all shipping bottles we’ll say “Should be used in conjunction with accepted medical treatment.”

If someone cries foul, we’ll suggest a double blind test with other Homepathic cures. Check. Mate.

From the Daily Mail :

Pope Benedict XVI has launched a surprise attack on climate change prophets of doom, warning them that any solutions to global warming must be based on firm evidence and not on dubious ideology.

Hahaha. I was sure that was a joke when I first read it.

What a joke.

I’m in danger of becoming a link whore. But sometimes you just have to share the love. Religion 101: Final Exam is also pretty funny stuff. A choice quote:

You are the incarnated Son of the all-powerful and all-loving Creator of the universe. What would be a good way to demonstrate your compassion and power?

• Cure cancer forever
• Cause all the earth’s deserts to bloom with food crops
• Unite the world with a common language and an end to poverty
• Conjure up a jug of wine and follow it up by walking on water
