There's too many people who have been taught not to like reading or thinking for themselves and to listen to authority. And since people are in love with the finality of numbers, here are some you can find by people trying to convince others for fun or to make them buy products that I'll use for example. 1 out of 7 Japanese households use magnetics for therapy. A poll claims 3.7 million Americans have been abducted. Bates Method for vision improvement has been around for 80 years and benefited hundreds of thousands of people's eyesights. And should I want to try proving any of this crap I have to realize that the vast majority of people are not open to any new ideas and if I try explaining anything they'll think I'm patronizing them. They prefer to have information forced into them while they resist, just like in school. And so I cuss. Magnetic therapy has been around for much longer than that freaking Alex Chiu guy. There are books written about it, people who practice it for a living, and the Kroger near me is introducing it as magnetic shoe insoles. And people don't hear about it because the people that do are indifferent to others. The stupid alien poll should mean something to us, it should make us wonder at least. But should I tell it to a friend as a tidbit for thought and declaration of my stupidity, he doesn't think why. He's not going to think about anything beyond "That's funny." No thinking about how they did the poll, hallucinations from sniffing glue, the favorite colors of the supposed abductees. And should the words come to him he'll try to explain it away as not true and believe it. Then Bates Method is something that a lot of websites that make no money are about. I've read a rather large textbook size book called "Relearning to See" on the Bates Method by Thomas Quackenbush, heard and read a lot of orthodox optometry rhetorics, and I blame everyone for my misery. The bad people make money off of our stupidity. The stupid feel better by making others stupid. The people who have been lucky enough to read mass produced copies of useful books are too greedy to make everyone know about it. And people everywhere starves. But because I consider all of you friends I'll attach a link to an online version of William H. Bates' book "Perfect Eyesight Without Glasses".

Then you can compare it to a really vacuous debunking.

This is the Bates Method book I read and it has good reviews.
