Eniwetok, you simply do not understand the Law of Similars. According to homeopathic dogma, the thing that causes a condition or disease when taken in large amounts will cure that condition or disease when taken in small amounts.

Frequent proving sessions demonstrate that taking vodka in large amounts will get you trashed. Therefore, if you are already drunk off your ass on full-strength vodka and you consume homeopathic vodka, you will recover from your drunkenness. Which, naturlich, was going to happen anyway.

BTW does anyone know what homeopathic dog shit is used for? Google "excrementum caninum."
