Moleculer Side of Homeopathy?

Kumar, it looks a bit silly when you keep saying goodbye, then continue to post. Stay or go away as you will, but make up your mind.

The “Incoherent Mess” That Is Homeopathy: Old and New Insights
Back in 1943 a Dutch physician, David Karel de Jongh, wrote a PhD dissertation on homeopathy. It was based on his experience working in a homeopathic hospital and on all the published information he could find, and was highly critical of homeopathy. It was an impressive opus, with over 200,000 words. It is way too long for the average reader to wade through; and since it is in Dutch, few of us could read it even if we wanted to. Jan Willem Nienhuys, secretary of the Dutch skeptics’ organization Skepsis, has done us a great favor by summarizing its contents and updating it with information about recent developments. He has kindly had his summary translated into English and published in full on the Skepsis website. He comments “Basically Dr. de Jongh’s conclusions were that homeopathy is an incoherent mess.”
Critical considerations on homeopathy
Only a few people have any idea of the extent of messiness and incoherence that is homeopathy. The general public thinks it has something to do with innocuous herbs, and those who know a little more think it is about extreme dilutions.
Wow:
An authoritative Materia Medica, the one by Allen (1870), lists 1651 symptoms for Spanish Fly, and almost all of them are from case descriptions of poisonings by this alleged aphrodisiac. In a homeopathic Materia Medica almost none of the symptoms of any remedy state the dilution, if any, used. Moreover, if a remedy was used for a sick person and that person got cured afterwards, the symptoms of this patient were also added in the Materia Medica. Very many of the ‘symptoms’ are absurdly subjective. One example may suffice, symptom 546 of Anacardium in Hahnemann’s book on chronic diseases: ‘After playing on the piano he feels heavy and full in the body’.
Would Hahnemann recommend a ground up, diluted piano to treat those symptoms :p ?
