@cakeisnotanumber Some people are taught to be that way. Also humans like to believe in magic and other voodoos. It's not just a failure of orthodox medicine necessarily.

In the U.S. we have, for the most part anyway, a for profit health care system. Much of it, the pharmaceutical industry in particular, seems increasingly to be in the business of treatment, rather than prevention or curing. So many people that I know, across the age spectrum, are on prescription drugs on an ongoing basis. I find myself wondering how much of it is really necessary and how much could be handled with lifestyle/dietary changes and in some cases cheaper non-manufactured remedies.

@Limposium I quite agree. Or, since I can't verify his claims here and now, at least it's the most optimistic one. :)



Father Coyne and Steven Weinburg, one feels that the universe necessitates god and the other doesn't. Michael Baum and Nicholas Humphrey, one is deeply convinced of the value of holistic medicine and the other is highly skeptical. And Dawkins either agrees or listens, unlike certain folk.

It's not an argument at all. How could you say an entire series is an argument? People who said completely opposite things were both presented, and Dawkins was just a good listener.
