Minutus

O.K., I have to correct myself, was not 100 % vegetarian, had overlooked one tiny line of "desire for meet". But still all this spinach puzzles me. Why would a top carnivore instill vegetable wishes, I can't see the scientific logic here. Or is that sort of a negative image, the state that a bit of beast spirit, "remedy-wise", would then work towards altering, curing ? - Did your clients change any of their food habits? / Regards, Panthera (This refers to the Rep. extract about lac leoninum posted to the forum in response to my search for L.l. proving results, and my quick response in turn to that. I did not want to include the whole very long text again; it would have taken up ~5x the space of average postings.)

Panthera,

This is why we need provings of substances and not speculation. Why must
lac-leo produce "carnivorous" symptoms/desires? I think this is another
aspect of what Hahnemann meant by being unprejudiced. A remedy produces an
artificial disease and that produces symptoms. Whatever those symptoms are,
they are, whether they seem to fit or not.

be well

"Allopaths have protocols, Homeopaths have principles."

Well, Russell, Yes and No, I'd say. I do not see I had engaged in illegitimate activity. Sure our data for treatment practice are supposed to be 100 % derived from empirical evidence, and these are, by definition, to be gained with as unprejudiced a mind as possible, as always in science; no disagreement here. I also did not yet claim in public I was the Lord Master of homoeo-remedies and they'd to obey my orders. On the other hand it is legitimate, natural for a thinking human mind and anyway I could not control my urge to wonder why things are as we find them out to be, how aspects of nature relate, to see a large picture. As far as we carefully keep both activities apart, there shouldn't arise any problem either. Two different pairs of shoes. Apart from the potential issue that I hinted at earlier of strong moral believes in provers, that could "colour" results in general ( and it might not be too far fetched that there could well be strict and convicted vegetarians in homoeo-communities, which should then be recorded in proving protocols, which not everyone may pay attention to ); well, if data surprise me, I have to think again, either find flaws in test design or modify my assumptions, but that's the same in, say, astronomy etc. Nothing wrong again, as long I do not attempt to let my believes win over facts, which of course also happens in homoeopathy as elsewhere. And I did mention initially that, in addition to hom. interest I also did what I termed "zoo-anthropological" studies. So it does interest me, and it is with questions that science starts, isn't it ?
