Science kicks butt, but I prefer to see it used for life rather then death.

Now as I am a fan of science and science fiction. Have a degree in Physics and am a 'devout atheist'/'Grown up in a Christian household' and have experimented with organized religion (those who read Zindel's Neverwinter would understand).

I for one am wholly against quackery. I'm also a stern understander of the laws of nature whose corollary in economics is that a fool and their money are soon parted. However I've had cancer and I understand the despair that one goes through. I also understand that belief in the cure and praise of oneself is a powerful way for the mind to get the body going. Sure the new age stuff doesn't actually work and if she used and science she would be better off. But hope and laughter is a powerful medicine all of its own.

You can't change her mind, but you can make her laugh, cry, enjoy life. You can instill Joie de vivre and Wa into your friends. She might die quicker from quackery but you can give her quality until then. If she must burn out fast, let her burn brightly.

Any more talking of assassination will have to lead to the closing of this thread.
