Pretzel Logic
As atheists and skeptics, we’re often confronted by people making claims that are just not provable by the person making the claim. We often come up against theists that claim God exists, but when we ask for proof, they tend to try and turn the argument around and ask us to prove God doesn’t exist. Proving a negative isn’t possible, that’s why claimants that provide no evidence are usually waved off by most people.
Let’s Take the Snake Oil off Our Shelves
I haven’t written anything recently, in fact, quite a while, about homeopathy.

We should be working to have these ineffective and sometimes dangerous products, removed from being able to be sold or even promoted.
