Creationism, natural healing and bad science

March 28th 2008 04:04
Today, a couple of excellent videos that highlight the sheer intensity of bad science out there...

First, a video about a museum tour group that offers Biblical-based tours for students. Found on FriendlyAtheist, the video follows two tour guides as they take student and their parents through a natural history museum. The guides make it seem like they're the only ones interested in science, as if scientists were following a belief system.




The sheer lunacy of the tour grows as you hear the dangerous words that come out of their mouths... magically, they manage to ignore and turn their backs on the exhibits that offer answers, and the guides themselves seem to have a hazy understanding of their own beliefs.

The second video is just enjoyable... get a quick-burn physics lesson from this practitioner of homeopathic medicine, who uses Einstein's theories to show that we're all made up of energy..... ok.



Found on BadScience, the video makes me wonder how many people are sitting around, talking like this, deforming science into something that makes even less sense?
