Dear Simon,
I love your humor, so keep letting it slip out.
Concerning wounds from the acrid discussion that goes on here, I think it is important to not take it personally. I remember when I first started Minutus, the late highly respected Julian Winston was slaying the dragon of a crazy anti-homeopathy woman. He must have spent hours on his replies to her totally ill founded arguments. I told him that I didn't think he would spend so much time with a patient who just needed the right remedy. He stopped the arguing.
There are so many unclear points in homeopathy. It is important to get all the perspectives out there. Hope of settling much of the art of homeopathy through argument is not likely to be unrewarded. But it helps if we know the differences of opinion.
I will tell you that by now I have a sense of who has a perspective that is well thought out and articulate. I also quit opening post of pundits who sound like a broken record. What they are saying has value, but I have heard it before. I, like you don't have a lot of time. So I choose my posts to be opened based on my experience with the author (and the subject). I suppose I miss a lot, but that's my reality. There are certain authors who I try not to miss.
Blessings,
Ellen
