Blindness then Omniscinence: Lousise Robbins, a Footprint Expert
Abstract
Blindness struck a footprint expert only to be followed by omniscience. According to Don Johanson, discoverer of Lucy, the most complete hominid skeleton yet found, the astonishing pre-human footprints at Laetoli were almost ignored. American footprint specialist, Louise Robbins pronounced that the first print discovered was merely that of a horse. Who Lies Sleeping? The Dinosaur Heritage and the Extinction of Man by Dr Michael D Magee
The modern conservative is engaged in one of man’s oldest exercises in moral philosophy—that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

The spontaneous remission rate of all cancers, lumped together, is estimated to be something between one in ten thousand and one in a hundred thousand. If no more than five per cent of the 100 million who have come to Lourdes since 1858 were there to treat their cancers, there should have been something between fifty and 500 cures of cancer from spontaneous remission and therefore seeming miraculous. The total of miraculous cures accepted by the Church is about a hundred, and cancers are only about five percent of them, so the rate of spontaneous remission of cancer at Lourdes seems to be lower than if the patients had stayed at home.
