Yes, people are free to decide for themselves who they wish to believe.
But if they choose to be influenced by sparse, low-quality, unverifiable
testimonials, then there are plenty of crooks willing to supply them with
fake cancer cures. I suppose even that is OK by me, so long as cancer
patients are not induced to entrust their lives to them .
Everyone interested in this area should at least learn the basics of
assessing testimonial, so that they can at least eliminate some of the more
obvious scam artists and deluded fools from the alternative cancer industry.
