 The misuse of science
The claim of researchers at Kolkata's Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science of a potential new cancer cure is scientifically dubious and based on violations of many tenets of medical ethics.
The bare requirements of respectable science demand the demonstration of a causal connection between a disease and the curative properties and mode of action of a drug.
To condone such abuses in the name of science is to degrade and berate it, and to vulgarise a rational pursuit - thereby demeaning rationality itself as something whimsical and indifferent to human dignity.
