Radio 4 today

In today's slot regarding homeopathy you were dismissive and had Prof Colquhoun state that there was nothing in it. Yet BBC's own QED programme circa 1991 clearly and effectively showed that there was definitely something in the remedies. That programme lead me to become a homeopath.
As was said, Prof Colquhoun does not seem to have studied homeopathy properly and dismisses homeopathy because of its high dilutions. However, there are many scientific papers showing the effects of high dilutions.
One is reminded of 'scientists' claiming that the Earth was flat and before the Wright brothers claiming that anything heavier than air could not possibly fly despite the fact that every day they saw birds fly! Today's programme did a dis-service to science.

Are you talking to me, Roger Bird? I can't tell. I don't know any Prof. Colquhoun. This is a very confusing email. Yes, I do not believe that there is any physical substance left in the remedies. Yes, I believe that it is magic. Just because it is magic does not mean that it cannot affect the water. Consciousness is a miracle, much better than magic, and it controls our bodies.
