In reply to the discussion: Homeopathy had No Place in Pharmacy: Canadian Pharmacist [View all]longship
(40,416 posts)And it was invented before the germ theory of disease and Avogadro. Your argument from antiquity is a logical fallacy. Why, oh why do AltMed quacks think old thinking about healthcare is in anyway a benefit?
And your argument ad populi is equally fallacious. It matters not one bit how many people use homeopathy. It is still rubbish.
And again, the argument against BigPharma is also rubbish conspiratorial rubbish.
Homeopathy schools should be ridiculed and marginalized, just like those that teach creationism, astrology, and other anti-science kookery.
Homeopathy does nothing but do a wallet extraction, just like the rest of AltMed.
There is no such thing as alternative medicine, there is only medicine, based on science.
As to keeping an open mind, that's fine as long as one does not let ones brains fall out.
My regards.
