DC’s Improbable Science has an article detailing the harm that the “College of Medicine” is causing:
Wow. You can see why David Colquhoun is angry. Something is rotten to the core.

All this recent exposure of the controversy surrounding the Burzynski Clinic has exposed the Yes to Life charity to scrutiny and, especially, the charity’s funding from benefit concerts.
As always, Quackometer has a blog on this:

Article by Kulvinder Singh Matharu – 2011
No one wants to admit that they’re wrong. Pointing them to well researched articles, exposing flaws in their logic and their decisions should make a reasonable person change their mind. But this isn’t the case most of the time. Instead, people believe that they’re under attack and become more firmly entrenched in their positions. I suspect a lot of people, consciously or unconsciously, know that they’re wrong but will grasp at anything, however nonsensical, to support their views. People who write newspaper articles are no different
Quackometer has posted an article today that describes how The Observer has responded to the concerns raised on the newspaper’s support for the Burzynski Clinic. It would appear that The Observer has fallen in the above trap; it has failed to address the concerns raised and has, instead, gone on the offensive in attacking the reasonable such as blogger Rhys Morgan. This would indicate that there is something far wider amiss in the way that The Observer tries to exert its power and influence. I strongly suggest that you read the Quackometer article.
There are two things I would like re-iterate in line with what I’ve previously written. Firstly, those who are considering procuring treatments from the Burzynski Clinic should go into this with their eyes open; be honest with yourself. Secondly, the disgraceful behaviour of the Burzynski Clinic still needs to be addressed. It is my hope that all the recent publicity will fully expose the clinic’s behaviour to the world, but this will not be easy with unreasonable and sycophantic articles such as those from The Observer.

Article by Kulvinder Singh Matharu – 2011
Science is the search for truth. It is a rational mechanism that uses logic, evidence and other facts to formulate theories to arrive at the truth. Religion is at odds with this rationality and thus those who advocate religion are deluded. And those scientists who claim compatibly of religion with truth in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary must do a pretty good job of compartmentalising the irrationality of religion from their rational thoughts. But, then, humans are not always consistent or rational in what they do which makes the scientific process an absolutely critical method to progress.
Religion is not compatible with truth. Religion is an intellectual prison, a method of control, a method of suppression and repression, which blinds the religious to the truth. It’s about time humanity broke free of its shackles, to experience the truth, to experience the excitement, wonders and mysteries of this planet and the universe.
That is why I believe that organisations such as the Templeton Foundation and BioLogos are fraudulent in what they do.

Excellent Quackometer post about the new “media code for homeopaths”:
I think that there’s something immoral here, especially in the code’s advice to reference the Cuban Leptospirosis study despite the fact that the study has been shown to be worthless from a scientific perspective; I would call this fraud.
