A boy died in Calgary, and his mom is being charged, as she didn't seek medical attention for his infection.  He was being treated with homeopathic medicine.

It's been reported that there is no medical record for this boy.

 I'm sticking my neck out a little on this one, and am expecting some people to strongly disagree but maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised!

I don't believe in homeopathy, and think that homeopathic medicines should be banned.  The naturopathic schools in Canada (I know of 2)  teach homeopathy and I think this should be stopped; or teach it for what it is, a complete scam so that those going into a more holistic approach to healing know when something is completely useless.

I'd like to communicate further that it is not just the claims of religion which I do not accept, but all supernatural claims.  Richard Dawkins has made a two-part film called "The Enemies of Reason" which can be viewed on-line.  Here's part one:

(Part two should be listed there somewhere).
