I have an earache... 

2000 B.C. - Here, eat this root. 
1000 A.D. - That root is heathen, say this prayer. 
1850 A.D. - That prayer is superstition, drink this potion. 
1940 A.D. - That potion is snake oil, swallow this pill. 
1985 A.D. - That pill is ineffective, take this antibiotic. 
2000 A.D. - That antibiotic is artificial. Here, eat this root.
