You just knew this was coming, right?
Granted, Ryo has all sorts of lovelies that he refers to in his article on randi.org; the following, however, is about as stupid on the subject of radiation as Ann Coulter's latest screed and is, if anything, even more dangerous:
Let’s first just ignore the fact that they [homeopaths] are basically saying: ‘If it so happens that you became radioactively (sic) ill even after taking these pills, then “oops!” just trust me on this next one’. Even if you wanted to entertain the thought that homeopathy is more than just an expensive placebo, one of the problems here is that when you follow their links, they irresponsibly assume that the side-effects of chemotherapy are the same as those of radioactive contamination from a nuclear power plant. They’re not.
This crap would actually be amusing if it wasn't for the fact that some True Believer might actually fall for a homeopathic "cure" for radiation poisoning and then find out the hard way that the only thing they were "cured" of is belng alive.
