Thomas,
Being the good cop, homoeopathy is meant to fail the western science criterion
because remedies are tailored to the *individual*. Hence the lack or
repeatability and statistical trialling. Also many farmers swear by it and it
is hard to argue that an animal has high consciousness to give rise to the
placebo effect. Also the placebo effect is meant to be real
Being bad cop, it is hard to be objective when emotions get in the way. Many of
these people are hospice cases ("TETH" tried everything try homoeopathy is a GP
acronym.). In all science too, when emotions get in the way (money, personal
ambitions, vendettas etc.) one must stand back. I noticed that ICCF had run out
of money for the hotel bill...
