The Sorceror's magic wand and other true stories
Ancient healers used moldy bread and spider webs to heal wounds. Many of these people were tried for witchcraft and some were burned at the stake. It wasn't until the late 1920's that scientists "discovered" penicillin--the "wonder drug".
Then there were stories and fables about sorcerors and their "magic wands". Scientists still haven't got that one figured out yet. But modern treasure hunters call them LRL's--Long Range Locators. Of course many skeptics would love to see these people burned at the stake, too. Talk of Satan worshipers, black magic, pseudo-science and you name it.
Skeptics seem to forget the Catholic Church had many priests who furthered the study in things like dowsing and map dowsing. Among those Abbe Mermet discovered many principles still used today.
The more things change, the more they remain the same. Maybe in another couple hundred years science will discover LRL's and claim it's the best discovery of mankind. But we already know that.
