Enemies of Reason - it was cracking wasn't it?

Yep.
Didn't know that the optimum concentration for some treatments is 30C , which is one molecule of the original substance dissolved in 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules of water.
And I the bleedin taxpayer am shelling out oodles for it.

I worked for many years at the sharp end of the NHS and can tell you that conventional medicine is not the exact science that you are led to believe it is. In any illness/disease there is at least a 40% unknown factor that effects a positive outcome. This percentage may rise to up to 90+% in some illnesses. Conventional medicine recognises this but, in most cases, fails to address it.
When discussing the homeopathic hospital, Dawkins failed to mention the fact that they achieve positive results. This is recognised by the medical establishment and the government and this is why the service continues to be funded.
I enjoyed the fact that dawkins gave out regarding one molecule of the water we drink has passed through the bladder of Oliver Cromwell. If this is in fact true then the same can be said for jesus christ, the prophet Abraham, the buddah, the prophet mohammed, and indeed every other person on the planet. Maybe this is the true essence of homeopathy.
