RE: Homeopathy Can Help People With Cancer

in #health7 years ago

Edzard Ernst has made a living out of being a sham homeopath and then using his status as a homeopath to rubbish homeopathy [great niche!] Since when did he become an expert to of the standard required by those who recite "Peer reviewed double blind test, that is hard truth and rational, logical thinking" ?

If you really want to argue this, go take a look at the core hom database of endless peer-reviewed double-blind tests. Ah, yes! They are peer-reviewed [homeopath's peers are homeopaths so they don't count unless they are Edzard Ernst]. I can't see railing against something without an open mind as at all rational. There were skeptics who 'rationally' investigated homeopathy in the past. Dr. Hering was one, and he became a homeopath.

@sallylloyd I'd save my energy trying to prove anything or trade research results. I have experience with these types of posters before. They are arguing from an ideological position. It's like trying to used statistics to convince a die-hard communist that capitalism is a superior system. It doesn't matter how much evidence you present, or how convincing your arguments... you'll not change their minds. A much better use of your time would be listening to some good music in your pub:..

Indeed. That’s not a rational standpoint to be starting from so it seems ironic to be being told we need to be more rational. I think I’d hold the opposite standpoint as strongly but it is based on day-to-day experience of treating people with homeopathy and I’d trust my own eyes after a certain amount of time.
I was writing more for the open minded readers who are also here reading your post.
Pub sounds good tho!!!!
It’s actually not the pub but Mars Attacks and spag bol and Mia Yelling loudly at the gory bits 😂
