If crystals actually balanced your spirits or healed your mind or whatever, geologists would be some of the happiest and calmest people on the planet. Instead, just look at us: we're surrounded by minerals AND anxiety.

Obviously all the different crystals are cancelling each other out. You wouldn't just take every drug available and expect to feel better. COME ON GEOLOGISTS, THIS IS BASIC LOGIC!!

😂 I have some crystals because geology is very cool and they look awesome; but folks do seem to think I'm trying to align my chakras or something.

My opinion on homeopathy. A molecule of something in a liter of water heals? Then why by just being in our environment aren't we superhuman?

If you like crystals, great! Many minerals are cool and pretty, and looking at cool, pretty things can be a mood-booster. However, you can achieve the same effect by looking at other cool, pretty things, which is a good reason to hang out with your local geologist since we're all cool and pretty. 🥰

So many times I've seen someone say "X stone is good for Y" and I want to say "Because of the trace iron impurity?"

My dad went through a meteorite collection phase and one time his friends who sold crystals and gems asked to bring some big customers over. Those ladies were highly into the woowoo side and immediately claimed that all those meteorites meant my parents would never get cancer
