Angus Kidman at Lifehacker: 'Homeopathy is Unscientific Rubbish'

here, a snippet of a snippet: 

001. Angus Kidman writes in "Reminder: Homeopathy Is Unscientific, Unproven Rubbish" (2015-03-10):

"last year, the Australian National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) released a draft paper that suggested there was zero evidence that homeopathy — which improbably claims that massively diluted substances are an effective treatment for practically anything — had any scientific credibility whatsoever. The final paper is out [...] NHMRC concludes that there are no health conditions for which there is reliable evidence that homeopathy is effective [...] it’s a waste of effort, a waste of money, and a serious health risk if you choose that option over treatments based on actual evidence"; 

Note: hear, hear.
