Allopathic medicine is based on monomorphism or the germ theory. Disease is
an invasion by an outside force, inury, metabolic defect or organism. The
battle cry is "kill the germ, burn the germ, cut the germ out."
The germ theory has served as the basis for traditional Western medicine for
over a century and was created by man.
The alternative healing approach is based on plemorphic theory. Create an
environment of balance
in the body that will not support any invading microorganism. The concept of
harmony and balance is a God-given protection that exists naturally at the
time of our birth.
If we consider the success of the germ theory in the "fight" against cancer,
we get a representative picture of the effectiveness of the narrow view.
Cancer is not a localized disturbance. You do not contract cancer of the
elbow, or toe. When you have cancer diagnosed it is of the whole body.
People constantly have the
part removed where the cancer manifested and have it return elsewhere at a
later time. If you remove the elbow without changing the environment, the
cancer will eventually manifest elsewhere.
We all know (assume) the American Cancer Society exists to cure cancer. It
spends 1 million dollars a day on its mandate. We have become accustomed to
headlines announcing a "cancer breakthrough". These
headlines have been occurring since 1924 and yet the incidence of cancer has
steadily increased. In 1924 cancer was the 8th leading cause of death, has
now become the second lead cause of death and is predicted to become the
number one leading cause of death in North America.
It appears the germ theory has failed as an approach to improve our health.
