People given a sugar pill and told it's ibuprofen can mentally block pain. People have even had cancer go into remission on placebo - this is all on what is objectively useless as medication, but they believe it will do something, so their body does what the brain wants.

Homeopathy kills people by convincing them they can refuse proper treatment because their magic water will cure them, then it invariably doesn't. In some double-blind studies, the placebo has performed better than the homeopathy.

Alright - first of all I'm going to back up my arguements with solid facts through documentation. I respectfully request the same from those opposed, rather than just presenting opinioned generalizations!

Secondly the side effects of pharmecuticals has killed more patients than Homeopathy will ever have!!! Not to mention the toxic effects its created in our global waterways. In fact pharmecutical 'dumping' is now being proved to contibuting to the alarming increases in male sterility/impotency, and early onset puberty and infertility in females!!!

So what we are needing to get 'realistic” about is modern allopathic synthetic medicines, Con's far out weigh the brain washing pro's they try to use to play god with.

sidenote: btw I've been doing this dance of a debate, for more than twenty five years, and in that time, more people have cone over to this side of the dance floor, in the end.
