Homeopathetic Canon

I have to wonder what she is a Dr. of.

As the man walks off, he says something about a fellow eye-doctor.

Maybe this is her?

That must have been nominated already. I'll be making sure. Not sure which spelling wouldn't be pithier though

Nope, it hasn't.

I think it is just me... (sniffs armpits during pregnant pause)

An optometrist should know better. MDs should be fairly skeptical.

My doctor was a cool skeptic. I was just getting a check up and overheard him with a previous patient talking about how the swine flu isn't an epidemic and how more people die from regular flu. He was explaining how it's not some plague but a mutation of the flu.

It was the sort of thing you wanna hear from a rational minded doctor.

I think there are three different questions:

1. what would a homeopath have to do to be told by his college that he was doing something wrong?

2. what would a homeopath have to do to be told by his local bylaw enforcement or criminal code that he was doing something wrong?

3. is there anything that all homeopaths agree is necessary for a treatment to be called homeopathic?

 

[Nursefoxfire]

YES.

That was fantastic, thanks!

Is there an agreed upon consensus on how homeopathy is supposed to work?

Here are three explanations; take your pick:

1) The number and other characteristics of the v2 band represent the number of
hydrogen-bonded water species and their hydrogen-bonding strength, respectively.
The potencies and their diluent media therefore differ from each other in the
number of hydrogen-bonded water species and their hydrogen-bonding strength.
(Vishva-Bahrati). Conte talks about a hyperproton developing in the water
(THEORY OF HIG DILUTIONS), and the research notes changes in the molecule, that
they expand and bundle in the dilution and succussion process. (Samal and Geckler)
Molecular connections through van der Waal forces to form colloids are being
studied (Roy and Tiller, et al).

2) Quantum framastat femto-tweaking of the subnucleotide hyperdimensional
quasi portals (Bernbohm and Stadler) tends to amortize the zero-point
virtual antisnerts, (THEORY OF LONG ABLUTIONS) and cause them to vibrate
counter to the Schrodinger bubble level. (Starsky and Hutch) This is why
Farnswoggle ratios need to be taken into account, else one too many succusses
and the forblewort could impact the omnibot in an out-of-phase condition,
and -- KABOOM! (Abbott and Costello)

3) All boils down to succussion and the power of cavitation under expansion and
implosion of those air bubbles in water. Implosion down to Casimir nanospaces.
(Stachowiak and Batchelor) Influx of wave energy from the Exotic Vacuum.
Quasi-cold fusion going on inside the bubbles pushing their temperature on par
with the Sun -- visible in also the Snapping Shrimp and his lethal claw; Visible
in the Hydrosonic pump (Griggs); Visible in the destruction of boat propellers
under cavitation bubbles.


NOTE: Two of the above were actually intended as serious explanations, provided to another list I participate in, by homeopathic practitioners.

1. what would a homeopath have to do to be told by his college that he was doing something wrong?

Put the wrong letterhead on her/his stationary.

2. what would a homeopath have to do to be told by his local bylaw enforcement or criminal code that he was doing something wrong?

Put up the wrong size sign.

3. is there anything that all homeopaths agree is necessary for a treatment to be called homeopathic?

Yes. If the person was practising as an MD and as a homeopath, and the patient complained that they received incompetent care or the patient died, then the treatment was really meant to be homeopathic.

3. is there anything that all homeopaths agree is necessary for a treatment to be called homeopathic?

Not really. See, for example, this recent Cochrane review carried out by a team including two members of the staff of the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital: Homeopathic medicines for adverse effects of cancer treatments.

Note that they have a positive study with low risk of bias and a reasonable number of patients (254), compared to their other positive "low risk of bias" study which had only 32. They also had two positive studies of unknown quality and four negative studies. Inclusion of the large positive study was therefore important as far as the review's positive conclusion was concerned.

Here's the large positive study: Phase III Randomized Trial of Calendula Officinalis Compared With Trolamine for the Prevention of Acute Dermatitis During Irradiation for Breast Cancer. You will look in vain for any mention of serial dilution and succussion of the remedy, for any mention of individualisation, for any mention of "like cures like" (any and all of which are frequently described by homoeopaths as essential elements of homoeopathy). There is no mention of homoeopathy at all. The paper was not found as a result of the literature search carried out, but was "identified by an expert in the field".

An explanation of the inclusion of this paper can be found here. Note the comments.

ATTENTION:

You shall henceforth refer to homeopathy by it's more proper, potent name "."

By reducing the ink/photon exposure, the meaning is heightened and the potency of its method will become automatically clear.

Don't want a swine flu shot? Here, have some .!

Didn't that little dot just explode in your brain? Every little thought you had and have about . becomes super clear all the sudden, in much the same way your body recognizes a trace of a cure.

In a computer, you don't need to inject a virus into alot of files, just one. They spread slowly... surely... time doesn't mean much to exponential systems. Sure, go ahead, campaign to infect a hundred files instead of one, attack half the hard drive. But if that one file is targeted strategically, say a boot file, then the rest of the computer is doomed.

. does the same thing, but with cures! Basically, the chemical make up that forms a cure is a hot commodity amongst our body-dwellers (bacteria and all sorts of other strange life and proto-life that literally lives within us). They love to learn cures, and will typically share that DNA Blueprint around and make duplicates. So, water--that's been in contact with a cure--keeps within it the Blueprint that your own body can learn from. But only if you drink this smart water. Then of course, this smart water will educate and purify the rest of the buckets of water flowing through your system.

Soon enough, departments that may have access to the chemicals and other ingredients needed to form this DNA will get a hold of the blueprint. If there is a dire enough need for it, and if the Blueprint is compelling enough, the body-dwellers may feel compelled to produce it and see what happens.

All the sudden, your body starts making the CURE! In fact, it's probably a good idea to eat certain foods afterwards to ensure your body has the right nutrients needed for the Blueprint.

1. what would a homeopath have to do to be told by his college that he was doing something wrong?

Practice medicine?

 

[blutoski]

Practice medicine?

Surprisingly, no. Some MDs also practice homeopathy.
