Those poor cats. Why isn’t there a link at the bottom so I can send money to prevent such cruelty to animals?
I’m curious about how much blood was spilled as a result of those sweaters.
CNN Investigates John of God: What a bunch of bullshit! Do they ever think to talk to someone from the skeptical side, as opposed to just pretending to? Like, for instance, David Gorsky or Steve Novella? I think that what he does is dangerous and the people at CNN, like DR. Gupta, are irresponsible for not representing both sides.
Steve Martin’s song is brilliant!
Damn you! I can’t stop destroying the Earth now! What have you done; think of the kittens!
I just wrote to CNN and gave them some negative feedback about their piece, “Investigating John of God.” I hope you will too.
Just one more post to give you the link to the CNN Feedback Form.
@Trotter Jelly: We need data! A scientific comparison between the people who put sweaters on cats and JoG. Who has the most blood on their hands? How much of it is their own?
P.S. #38 looks like a Chia pet.
Kitteh overload.

You put those scare quotes in the wrong place. It should have been: CNN “investigates” John of God…..
Orac’s done his usual fantastic job of taking CNN down on the John of God fiasco: http://scienceblogs.com/insolence/2010/12/cnns_dr_sanjay_gupta_falling_for_faith_h.php
