Re: A Faulty Medical Model: The Germ Theory

Hi Luise-
I never said that Hahnemann meant bacteria or viruses when he talked
about morbific agents. In fact I do not care if Hahnemann knew about
bacteria or not... that is besides the point... we are trying to posit
homeopathy in a context where allopathy is not the same beast that
Hahnemann dealt with. It has become worse in some ways and it has
become better in some ways. Having good scientific research and
following peer-reviewed protocols and double blinds etc. has improved
its approach and also made it much more reliable in terms of being
able to prove what is stated.
In some ways Homeopathy has retrograded even further than what our
founding fathers practised.
I am not sure I agree with the notion that the bacteria are just
dynamic in nature... still who knows... since vital force can be
influenced by a hit on the head ( what is just dynamic about this?)or
by burns to the body - I would rather say that all of these are
"influences" on the vital force - physical, chemical, ephemereal or
whatever...
