First, I will define what I will be writing about here:
Vegitiarianism
Full moon nonsense
Crystal healing
Acupuncture
Last things first: acupuncture. Yes, people literally go up to a guy and say "My back hurts, stick some needles in that bitch". The main problem with Natural healing is what defines it as "natural" (to some people), is that it's never tested. I don't have a bottle of Chi in my chemicals collection, and I never will. If I have a disease, I'm going to a hospital, not Margeret the Lonely Housewife.
Crystal healing. That stuff's a laugh a minute (and not because people spend their paychecks thinking a giant Quartz crystal will get rid of Parkinison's). How can anyone actually believe an inanimate lump of carbon will actually help you if you hold it OUTSIDE your body, where it can't really do much of anything? Even if it were inside you body, it would probly cut up your digestive system a lot.
Full-moon nonsense. People actually think this effects them. People believe in biological tides, that, because your body 70% water, it would change your behaviour. Forgetting the fact that tides happen because the oceans are near-still giant bodies of water, and that the water in our bodies is usually absorbed in tissue, and is in constant tumult from the heartbeat, and exerting different pressures and such at different times, so, the slight pull of the moon's gravity will do nothing. Also, a full moon has nothing to do with gravity, it has to do with how much light is hitting it. Tides change every day, yet when a full moon's out, guess what changes? Nothing. Same tide effect, and I don't see how the minimal extra light emitted by the moon could effect you in any way shape or form.
Vegitiarianism. I'm not even going to go there.
So....discuss.
