Atomic Ideologies Buffoonery

The blog Atomic Insights (which is more ideology than insight) has a post which is a discussion about whether or not radiation causes cancer.  It's quite stunning to read the first paragraph where a Dr. George presents anecdotal evidence as scientific evidence.  And it continues to plunge downhill from there, with a Dr. Cuttler, who is claimed to have 15 years studying the health effects of radiation, yet quotes Dr. Wade Allison, who has said he has no expertise in the field.  And I have pointed out many of his scientific flaws in early posts which can be found in that last link.
And I've posted these errors, time and again, on Atomic Ideologies Insights blog.

What's really funny is that they are discussing cancer incidence among radiology patients.  One of the main reasons we knew radiation was carcinogenic was due to the increased cancers among radiologists and their patients in the early 20th century.  This led to animal experiments and studying the A-bomb survivors.

You just can't make this irony up!!

It's Ideology.
