Randi just wants you to pour the poison Big Pharma sells you and Big Pharma despises you. Liar!

Prof. George Lewith was refering to two new studies in the Lancet which claimed that homeopathy is just a placebo.

George Lewith, Professor of Health Research at Southampton University comments: 'The review gave no indication of which trials were analysed nor of the various vital assumptions made about the data. This is not usual scientific practice. If we presume that homeopathy works for some conditions but not others, or change the definition of a 'larger trial', the conclusions change. This indicates a fundamental weakness in the conclusions: they are NOT reliable.'

I think we can all draw conclusions when France's Homeopathic healthcare is the best in the world and U.S.'s Allopathy healthcare is no:35, way below 3rd world countries like Dominica, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Singapore!

Homeopathy is the BEST treatment for chronic diseases because it works on principles:

1)Law of Similars (vaccinations work on the Law of Similars; Homeopathy differs in the potency)

2)Treat the Patient not the Disease

3)Nature's Law of Cure

4)Theory of Miasms as the cause of chronic disease.

The Allopathy pushers here don't know anything about the cause of chronic diseases. They only talk about theories. No praxis!

Anyone had a positive experience of a homeopathic remedy? I have and I am not an homeopathic physician - just experienced a positive result on three occasions for the same problem that would have otherwise meant a visit to the doc and a script for antibiotics.
