Homeopathy Possible Science Basis Says Recent Nobel Prize Winner
Submitted by Anonymous on Mon, 2010-07-05 16:35.Ready to condemn and BAN Homeopathy as Witchcraft? Let me check the calendar, is this the year 2010, or 1010? Hmmm. Appears to be 2010,
the year in which a NOBEL PRIZE WINNER AND PROMINENT VIROLOGIST says that Homeopathy might have a scientific basis?
(See The Austrailian, July 5, 2010)
"Nobel laureate gives homeopathy a boost"
"A NOBEL laureate who discovered the link between HIV and AIDS has suggested there could be a firm scientific foundation for homeopathy. "
And yet.... the coordinated attacks from a bunch of unscientific sceptics, junior doctors and anti-alternative medicine book writers and bloggers somehow wants to replace scientific research with the priority and predominance of their MERE OPINION. How scientific, exactly is THAT?
Oh, Homeopathy may indeed be a chimera, though sticking one's head in the sand while calling it "placebo" is HARDLY the proper approach to analysis.
Why not let the research on it play out - we have after all, over 200 years worth of clinical reports, case studies and analyses, many of them by perfectly well trained MD's that their are significant curative healing effects occurring, for unknown reasons, by means of Homeopathy. And those MD's are neither quacks, fools, deceivers or tricksters, unlike the small cabal of vocal anti-alternative medicine fanatics who apparently feel that they can fool everyone else into thinking that their mere opinion is somehow worth more than everyone else's - and then, astoundingly, wish to make public policy based on THEIR mere opinion.
And THIS is the kind of scientific attitude shown by the pseudo sceptics and armchair scientists??
