Homeopathy - Page 4

I personally LOVE homeopathy. I drink from my tap everyday ensuring 100% perfect health-I will never age, get sick or die. With the wonderful discovery of water-memory and nano-bubbles with strings I can rest safely knowing where my water comes from and has been.

It's also cheap.

Homeopathy is quackery. Proven chemically, mathematically, and empirically through extensive double-blind testing. Although it is simply water - it can be dangerous. In the UK homeopathy was (perhaps still is) available via the NHS. This funding could have been used for proper treatment of patients in an already under-funded organisation.

Fortunately, the host of evidence has forced a re-think - the use of homeopathic 'remedies' in the UK has fallen dramatically over the last few years, and funding it in the NHS has almost disappeared.

A recent hearing in the UK basically established that homeopathy is hogwash, and that funding from the NHS is meaningless.

What exactly is it taking away from "real" science?

Scientists work in their labs; Homeopathic technicians work in their labs.

A ridiculous equivocation. Scientists work using the scientific method, homeopaths are a bunch of quacks who peddle snake oil that has been shown not to work.
