Now everyone here can see the true colors of a homeopath "physician". Scary, isn't it? Fortunately most people have the education and good sense to know homeopathy is complete garbage, is 100% ineffective, and would never dream of going to these quacks for any reason.

No it doesn't. The theory is absurd and has long since been disproven. It is based on nonsensical "laws" that defy the real laws of chemistry, biology and physics. Placebo therapy is all it is. If that's all they claimed, no one would have a problem with it. But they don't, they claim a therapeutic effect, some even claim complete cures of all diseases. Which has been conclusively proven to be false.

By any legitimate scientist who has tested it. Here are just a few of the most recent studies: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12799863&dopt=Abstract http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12919110&dopt=Abstract http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12716269&dopt=Abstract http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12668794&dopt=Abstract http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12562974&dopt=Abstract

Chalk and cheese? Poor analogy. They are active (conventional medicine) and placebo (homeopathy). There is only one world, and it is best served by scientifically proven treatments, not antiquated, disproven nonsense like homeopathy.

Here we go again. You two have found yet another science forum to attempt to push this nonsense of homeopathy. These "remedies" are not drugs at all, they are benign placebos of either lactose or water/ethanol. It would be prudent to attempt to prove homeopathy works at all, as to date all well-controlled clinical trials demonstrate nothing but a placebo effect, as agrees perfectly with the current, proven laws of chemistry and physics.

Surprised no one has mentioned vaccinations... that would be #1 from a medical/health standpoint on my list. The others are well covered.
