Deepak Chopra attacks Skepticism

[theVOID]

Yeah, but in that sense there is a lot of blood on a lot of hands. I have looked into it a little, and although the guy can write a half decent book, you are right that he is a little misrepresenty (that's a cool new word).

Real word?

Deepak is more than just 'misrepresenty', he's a liar selling a product that does not work based on ideas that he simply does not understand.

I see more blood on the hands of the people that made popular the conception that depression or sadness, or just the lack of ecstatic happiness is not part of human life, but a mental disability.

Yep - Psychiatry has had some bad ideas, but there is a difference imo between people who do the wrong thing unintentionally and those who know they don't know shit about what they're selling and do it anyway, such as Chopra.

There is blood on the hands of the people who do whatever it is that is causing a rise in auto-immune disorders, like Diabetes and stuff.

It's more accepted that we are just getting better and diagnosing more benign cases.

Whatever it is that is causing the rise in "autism like disorders"

What's this based on? You're not talking about the claim that the MMR vaccine caused Autism are you? Because that has been very well refuted.

Heck there is blood on the hands of the companies that made that stupid swine flu shot, and on the WHO and gov't bodies for pushing an agenda of fear and comlicity. They tried to have a recall a couple weeks ago in Canada, but almost every dose of the vaccine that they tried to recall was already administered. Hoorah, the saftey system works!

Woah, got more details on this? I'm not familiar with the Swine Flu or the vaccine beyond basics, it's not a very big deal at all here.

I guess my beleaguered point is that yes Deepak is a little bit of a flim-flam artist, but we are unfortunately in a world of them...

Just because there are many of them does not justify any of them
