Trouble Breathing,her Stomach Has A Virus,

Manifesto for a Free University of pseudoscience and obscurantism

Given the increasingly abundant proliferation of conferences, courses, seminars and all kinds of different currents pseudoscientific activities being developed within the framework of English and Latin American universities, a trend which crystallizes in the recent establishment of a Chair Homeopathy Research at the University of Zaragoza, the undersigned (scientists, teachers, students and citizens in general) we find it necessary to state the following:

collaboration between the University and the Company and with other agencies and social partners is rewarding, productive and should be considered as one of the priorities of the university policy. The agreements and contracts for the transfer of research results to private enterprise may represent an important source of funding for public universities, which, properly developed, resulting in a more scientific productivity and optimization of applications such activity. However, we believe it is justifiable that the University find ways of financing at any price, let alone if this perverted philosophy and fundamental purposes.

Public University, like any other government agency must be to serve the public, maintaining constant contact with the society of which it forms part, through constant communication that allows the line between academia and social needs. To meet these objectives, the University must be a champion in terms of innovation and exploring new avenues for knowledge. The University should never be a statue, but a constant motion animation.

can not understand the research mission and social commitment of the University without the overlap with his role in the formation of free citizens, able to face the world with a critical mindset that allows them to escape the chains irrationality, superstition and ignorance. This teaching function, completely integral to the university, goes beyond the classroom, to represent the university a benchmark in terms of knowledge and rationality to the whole society.

In this sense, University plays an important role to the progress in contemporary society are taking certain currents unscientific and anti-rational, which can be a significant retreat to obscurantism and superstition, which is located at the opposite pole of the university's objectives. We are concerned, as academics and as citizens, to well into the twenty-first century increasingly proliferate more therapies closer to magic than medicine, often covered by public medical institutions and companies, we are concerned that heads of government consult astrologers, who officially declared fraudulent magic bracelets are carried by health ministers and are the best selling gift last Christmas, that more and more citizens who firmly believe that vaccines are toxic and harmful to health, to increase the number of patients who leave the embrace alternative medical treatment for esoteric, we care very seriously that much of the population back to rely more on traditional healers in scientific medicine.

We are concerned that the University can become a market that accommodate any irrational alternative to scientific knowledge. Just a misunderstood open-mindedness can justify teach alchemy in the Faculty of Chemistry, ufology in Physics or flood in History. Offer to the pseudo-university forum on an equal footing with the rational knowledge does not translate into any cultural enrichment, but a university validation of superstition and quackery. We can hardly educate our children about the lack of empirical bases astrological prediction if you will find on-campus graduate courses in astrology.

Reza
a top science that reason should not accept something as true just because many people say so or because important people sign it, and it is always necessary to stop to any assertion and doubt about whether or not true. This forces act much more slowly, carefully weighing the options, to proceed carefully with any type of proposal. And this is one of the things that we strongly believe should be taught in universities.

Therefore, we are concerned that the University of room for acupuncture courses, lectures on creationism, astrology and seminars on chairs in homeopathy. We are particularly concerned, if not addressed as a critical debate and rational analysis, but with a budget of functionality and scientific validation of not only lack, but are in opposition front the university critical.

In the case of homeopathy, but apply equally to the rest of pseudoscience, has not been proven scientifically and its rationale (which contradicts our knowledge of elementary chemistry and medicine), or its effectiveness beyond a placebo. Decades ago, extensive studies were used to search for a possible based on homeopathic principles, which have not changed significantly in two hundred years, base ever found.

We find it extremely ironic that while European governments withdraw funding and support State homeopathic practice in Spain are in place chairs in public universities. The guarantee that this implies, places homeopathy, astrology and spiritualism under the category of academic disciplines, especially when we are not solely to a research activity on an ambiguous event, but to an institutionalization aimed at training and dissemination of these principles.

believe finally, that while further justified and funds to any factor that could be investigated, the special economic situation makes investment effort and resources in such disciplines thoroughly discredited in an act of pure waste of resources that could be used in areas of research and teaching far more priority.

People from different strata and groups of society endorse this manifesto we wish to draw attention to this important aspect of the whole population and especially to academic and governmental authorities, hoping that the right end imposed on superstition and obscurantism.

Hostel Between San Fran And La

Zaragoza University and chair of homeopathy

already count at the time that the University of Zaragoza not only teaches homeopathy, but it also boasts . why the news of the creation of a Chair of Homeopathy as no surprise, but confirmation of the slope by which its leaders are leading the university. A follows that now have two images, which leaves the press release, signed in tandem at the University of Zaragoza and Boiron Labs:



and this one, in which Javier Lanuza (Professor Department of Pharmacology and Physiology), Pilar Zaragoza (Vice-Rector of Institutional Relations), Pascal Blasco (Director General of Boiron) and Gualberto Diaz (Medical Director Boiron) put in writing the nonsense:


And is that The Chair is sponsored by Laboratoires Boiron, the French multinational that sells things like this or this other . And by the way, and they say that the Chair will address

such important issues as the conditions treated by this therapy, the manufacture and presentation of drugs or large teaching this in our country.

would not try as they might also find out why homeopathic laboratories, with the head Boiron, sell their products totally illegal. In return they offer us take care of that "broad teaching" of homeopathy that, incredibly, is "present in our country." Contrary to what happens in others, where the universities increasingly devote their scarce resources to the teaching of subjects of truth, abandoning the teaching of therapies fictional as this.

Which, of course, raises another question: What do the other professors at the University of Zaragoza, who are engaged to teach rigorous knowledge, before joining the ranks of this? Are they happy to see that the educational resources and, above all, the prestige that they have helped to give the University, will be diluted as a sugar in the magical water? Do you feel happy to count among its peers a professor at trickery?

assume that no. But it would not hurt us more than they clarify.


PS: and look forward also to the possibility that the University of Zaragoza homologue us our title of homeopaths. At the end of the day, granted us your sponsor ...

What Is Body Muscle Percentage Mean

The University of Seville, HIV denialists and Conspiranoids of alternative medicine

is a shame, but here again we have to bring to the University of Seville, which gradually is standing on top of our ranking of magufas universities. This time nothing less than this :


If the subtitle of the conference ("The definition of disease: fact and fiction") and is as mosques, a look at the program (pdf ) and the curriculum of many of the participants confirmed the worst suspicions : deniers of the existence of HIV, pseudoterapias fictitious vendors and conspiracy theories are mixed with papers that could be valuable, but that such support will only serve to give an appearance of respectability charlatans who do not deserve.

That's what they got, on the other hand, in organizing the conference as much as in the Aula Magna of the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Sevilla. Because, as you can imagine, this is not a proper act of the University, but organized by agreement with the "ETOR Group, an entity of which we can say little because the browser, wisely, we should not enter their


But rigor and methodological orientation which can form an idea visiting this blog . Albeit with the caveat that if his team visit is not what can be damaged.

In Science and Demons make a more detailed discussion of the case and suggested sending a letter of protest, which we, of course, have already done. Also is strongly recommended that the debate is developing in this entry Penalties Agent Smith, with the intervention of one of the star responsible for the monster, José Ordóñez García, whose curriculum deserves no further comment, right?

We will not tire of repeating: the organizers of these things can do it in a theater, the classroom culture of City Hall (which for a day you put aside that the "culture" not going to happen ) or the corner bar, but universities should not allow them to ride these circles on their premises. They are out of place, and all they do is tarnish his reputation.

Sperm During Menstration

The University of Seville and homeopathy

say that man is the only animal that stumbles twice on the same stone. However, the University of Seville is willing to deny this statement, and though he has spent a couple of times our list here are again ready to show their love for the implausible and therapies unsubstantiated treatments. That is, by homeopathy.

Here is a free elective course, entitled "Basic Principles of Homeopathy in Health Sciences", no less. Can you check the schedule on page 91 of this pdf , but if you do not want to bother here it in all its, say, splendor


As you can see, the contents of the course is

Homeopathy in the various branches of Health Sciences. Scientific basis of homeopathy. Clinical and homeopathic therapy.

Since homeopathy in different fields of health, however much they say otherwise, their supporters and vendors, is on the decline, that its scientific basis are non-existent (the scientific , the mystical are another thing, of course) and the clinical and therapeutic homeopathic is basically to develop a range of symptoms and seek treatment prescribed by Hahnemann officially or its successors, without going into details as messy as the patient suffers illness, its causes and the search for a treatment that is the cure the subject has every chance of becoming successful. In fact, at this point there is only one square free :



And, finally, after all, is nine credits earned almost over the hill.

O without the "almost" because a university to teach homeopathy at this point is a matter of nose, ignorance improper such an institution, or a little of both. In fact, the University itself seemed to have noticed, since the Masters in Homeopathy had been offering until last year, without going any further, has disappeared this year.

same path others should follow the traces of pseudomecidina which houses the University of Seville. And in that sense initiatives like Cambalache that has proposed sending a letter clearly putting things in place , deserve our support. Neither the University of Seville, and health professionals to form in her or his patients deserve therapies to treat them without any real foundation.

University de La Laguna, or how they should study at the University pseudoscience

say that comparisons are odious, but take a look at all the courses and qualifications we have mentioned in this list (and will continue commenting, I'm afraid) and compare them with this:


and is being held at the University of La Laguna the 2010 edition of its course on science and pseudoscience , which since 2001 has done exactly what is expected of a university: to show what science is and what it is not , or deserves to be named, much less be taught in a college course. For this its program is divided into two modules, dedicated to providing "An Overview of contemporary science" and study the relationship between "The individual, society and pseudoscience."

Unfortunately it is not unusual to run such a course. Rather, as we see in this list, just the opposite. But I hope it sets an example and other universities to realize that the only pseudoscience has no place in them as well: as an object of study and as something to which the work of the universities themselves should oppose frontally.
