…and it’s easy to lose you perpective of Loss Ness
We remind everyone to sign up for SkepKon in Frankfurt 18-20 May. In TWISH we revisit the story of “the Surgeon’s photograph”, which was supposed to convince us that the Loch Ness monster was a thing. The pope gets a poking for supporting exorcism which is in the news due to Russell Crowe‘s latest Hollywood venture, “The Pope’s Exorcist”the Vatican is not amused… Then we have a look into the news:

  • Vatican: New observatory created to investigate possible apparitions of the Virgin Mary
  • Italy: Madonna of Trevignano Romano – the miracle statue with tears of blood
  • Germany: Acupuncture as new homeopathy? Podcast episode with Udo Endruscheit and Natalie Grams
  • Hungary: List of Flat Earth Awards finalists sparks debates
  • Germany: Dangerous nonsense healing
  • Sweden: The new nationwide census is not a census

The Vienna Medical Association has lost its mind and want their doctors to get into nonsense homeopathy. That earns them a Really Wrong Award.

Enjoy!
