God fucking dammit. How can she say that mass is irrelevant? That's fucking retarded. No matter how little mass there is, nothing is massless.
Oh, and by her logic, you could transfer energy into light. So by her logic, light can be transferred into energy to affect mass, which doesn't exist.
WHAT?!

I can come up with a few massless things. Photons, for example, have no rest mass.

Yeah, okay, you are right. Electromagnetic waves are massless, photons, like you say, are massless, but what she's talking about... cells in your body and such. They are NOT massless.

I have received acupuncture, and it definetly works. That's coming from a person who is extremely sceptical about everything.
That women should not talk about stuff she knows nothing about.
also,
RAAAAAAGE!!!

She's not making any sense, and I think it's horrible that she's misinforming everybody in that room with her false science.
Even if you ignore her horrific raping of science and getting equations drastically wrong, she also fails at basic, 8 year old level maths.
She says the mass term in E=mc is zero, and so E=c. Last time I checked, when you multiply something by zero, you get zero.
m -> 0, E-> 0.
E=0.

Yeah what she said would work if it was E=m+c2, but unfortunately that's not how the universe works
Also whether or not you're a lot of mass is wholly dependent on perspective... from a human perspective, a building has a lot of mass, the Earth has a ginormous amount of mass. On a particle physics level, we have a ginormous amount of mass. Only on large scales such as cosmology does a single planet or person become insignificantly small.

Acupuncture actually works. It's not better than proper methods but it releases endorphins which are endogenous painkillers.
Fucking retard, when something is REALLY SMALL you don't remove it, you remove it when it's equal to ONE.
[QUOTE=Valdor;22966637]Practicing chiropractics isn't bad if you aren't ignorant towards the other ways of solving medical issues and you aren't persistent on only using chiropractic methods. It certainly isn't complete bullshit though, :crossarms:[/QUOTE]
Jumping up and down while yelling AIAIAIAAIAIAI is definitely effective at combating diseases as long as you seek proper medical treatment.

Painkillers which do absolutely nothing to solve any actual problems.
