If you didn't manufacture your own that I think that the title of your blog is obviously misleading, which it should say "Capitalism Good" , because of the followings:<br /><br />#1) I use a car (or vehicle) for transport, which was not manufactured by me.<br /><br />#2) I use a computer (to write material for this blog), which was not manufactured by me.<br /><br />#3) I use a telephone (fixed or mobile), which was not manufactured by me.<br /><br />#4) I use electricity at home, which is not produced by me.<br /><br /><br />#5) I use an ipod to listen to music, which was not manufactured by me.<br /><br />#6) I sometimes fly in an aeroplane or a jet, which was not built by me.<br /><br />#)... blah, blah, blah,...<br /><br />God, without Capitalist producers, you would be still living in a cave-man's era, which is so primitive that you wouldn't want to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17759756.post-18700788579948644182007-01-27T01:40:00.000+13:002007-01-27T01:40:00.000+13:00Most scientific studies are peer reviewed especial...Most scientific studies are peer reviewed especially the ones that are appeared in major international journals and this is facts. The majority of health studies are analysed using statistical inferences techniques, meaning that causation is not established. It is not like a branch of physical science such as physics that causation is always established, and when it does, then that discovery becomes and established laws of physics. Health which falls in the biological science, is more complex and that is why inferences is the only first methods applied to the data to give some rough ideas of any direct or indirect linkages in causations, that is 'cause A' leads to 'effect B'. Statistical inference is pure induction and not firm deduction of cause-effect. There is no wonder that some of the studies in bio-medical science seemed to contradict each other because of inferences. In physics, there are some disagreements, but if you measure the speed of light in vacuum, it has the same value whether the experiment is conducted up on Jupiter's surface or underneath a submarine in the atlantic ocean.<br /><br />I am too have decided to ignore conflicting studies from bio-medical science. A study here that found taking a regular glass of wine is good and another study says that avoiding alcohol altogether is better for the heart.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17759756.post-12109730808820442862007-01-26T09:30:00.000+13:002007-01-26T09:30:00.000+13:00I've become very sceptical about this stuff too, p...I've become very sceptical about this stuff too, particularly since I did some reading about the 8 glasses of water a day thing:<br />http://spanblather.blogspot.com/2006/01/eight-glasses-of-bullshit-day.htmlSpanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16896745511007816190noreply@blogger.com
