This is a wonderful companion piece to the video I posted the other day here of John Oliver trashing the dishonesty of a one-against-one Climate Change "debate."

Here, he goes on a wonderful takedown of quack medicine and home cures. As Carolyn points out, this could just as easily be a companion piece to faith-based political "debates' where facts aren't important, just what you believe.
