Kristy Lampe quotes the following in the e-newsletter received today:
“Freedom of thought, and a love of scientific investigation, are prominent characteristics of the present generation. In every branch of society, in every department of life, the mists of error, prejudice, and ignorance are rapidly fading away. The cry is now everywhere, “What is truth?” and shadowy forms, and fine-drawn theories are giving place to the real and substantial, the positive revelations of science…. The more the people understand the law of their being, the better will they be enabled to prevent disease…”
~ from the foreword of The Gentleman’s Hand-book of Homoeopathy; Especially for Travelers, and for Domestic Practice by E. Guernsey, MD, (New York, William Rade, 1857)
(yes, that was written 150 years ago, says Kristy)
