    You of course edited the bits saying the current research is poor and
    valid conclusions can not be drawn, this is the brit polite way of saying
    get your research up to standards and we can look again, just thought you
    would like to know. So, this is the best you can muster in favor of the
    "practice", so sad. When you have something solid, not rhetorical appeals
    to future research, let us know. The url's that were posted before have
    solid research saying "forget it".

    Further research on homeopathy is warranted provided it is rigorous
    and systematic.

    Ha, ... Hah, Ha!

    "Further research on whatever-is-being-studied is generally
    warranted," is the standard conclusion for almost all health related
    research.

    Just thought that you might want to know. 🙂

    Once upon a time, our fellow [email hidden]
    rambled on about "Re: Lessons on Alternative Medicine: Homeopathy."

    Personally, I thought that Homeopathy was Quackery.

    However, I have come to understand the error of my ways.

    Now, I understand that nothing tops conventional medicine in the
    Quackery department, which practiced heroic medicine throughout most
    of its history.

    However, the cited BMJ and The Lancet research seems to indicate that
    there is something more to Homeopathy. It actually can be effective.

    Homeopathy took root during a period when conventional medicine
    practiced heroic medicine. What is really pathetic is that scum like
    you call harmless Homeopathy Quackery, while totally ignoring the
    Quack physicians who killed people like George Washington.

    You are a Quack in my book! Just thought that you might want
    to know. 🙂
