Pharyngula is one of my favorite blogs on the interwebs. It merges two of my favorite intellectual hobbies: skepticism and science. Granted, all scientists should by definition be skeptics, but I am simply a humble member of the peanut gallery. PZ Myers is a scientist, however, and a brilliant one at that.

In his post today, he takes on the University of Minnesota’s Center for Spirituality and Healing:

It’s the cesspit of the university, where all the pseudoscientific fuzzy-headed crap that fails is excreted, polished, gilded, and held on high as a beacon of New Age light to lead the gullible into a sewer of feel-good futility.

Apparently, a homeopathy event (homeopathy is the preposterous claim that ‘medicine’ works better when diluted with as much water as possible)was sponsored in the health sciences building at the University and Mr. Myers really blew his top. The whole post is worth reading (read it here).

I’m posting this because it’s now a matter of policy: this is a public university pissing money away on NONSENSE. As a fiscal conservative, I would love to see this 100% pure and uncut bullshit eviscerated from budgets as soon as possible.
