What is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a serious thing in the medical world. Over recent times it's become a huge industry backed by several big names, claiming it can help cure everything from a cold to any form of cancer. To say I'm skeptical would be an understatement, but being as this is a blog based on objectivity I'm now going to cross examine a leading expert on homeopathy who's trying to give a brief summary of this apparent miracle cure.

If you haven't grasped yet from this vague bollocks, homeopathy is clearly a fraudulent practice. You don't have to be an expert in science to realise that an alternative medical procedure based on energetic signals is highly suspicious, even more so when the explanation doesn't explain anything. Instead of using medically proven methods we're now substituting solid science with this vague and illogical nonsense. Homeopathy shares an alarming number of similarities with many other alternative medicines, each combining mystical healing with the pseudo-scientific worlds of magic and the unexplained. Take this 'like cures like' attitude. It's such an unbelievably inaccurate assumption that completely contradicts anything that modern medicinal practices dictate. Whilst we're at it why don't we start telling former soldiers they can cure their PTSD by mortaring their friends house and listening to their screams? The only difference between that attitude and homeopathy is the prevalence of water in the later. It's amazing how water has suddenly become this medium for storing information, which firstly is absolute bollocks, and secondly is in complete contradiction to the well researched discipline of molecular biology. If water is this molecule that ignores the principles of chemistry then a lot of science is going to have to be rewritten, because this is so far detached from our current understanding that the idea of homeopathy being plausible is more apt for a science fiction film rather than as a medicinal practice.

Amazingly homeopathy manages to become even more stupid when you look at the actual methods. If you're diluting a concoction that much you might as well drink the fucking Pacific Ocean. Basically homeopathy is just drinking water, and this expert even admits that in this explanation. Genius. Just to put into perspective how big Avogadro's constant is, if you counted at the rate of 1 billion every second it would take you 19 million years to reach Avogadro's constant. That's the scale we're diluting things here, so maybe drinking the Pacific Ocean is the understatement of the century.
My question is how do these charlatans know if the water hasn't got any of this energetic signal from previous users; after all water is naturally recycled. What if I accidentally drink water that years ago went through a person who had bowel cancer? Would like cure like then?

In my funny little world I thought the higher the concentration of any medicine the more effect it's going to have on your body. I often find the more I dilute alcohol the drunker I get, so I can see why homeopaths would think the opposite. Seriously on your next night out drink just water, because obviously that's the most effective way to get alcohol into your system. This homeopath here tries to back up this dilution mechanism with science, again making a fool of himself by not providing any sources, and claiming that machinery that supports homeopathy cannot possibly be faulty. I've still got no idea how a spectrograph can prove homeopathy works considering it's used to convert light energy into a reading, but then we never actually get an explanation for anything, yet alone primary fucking evidence.

To be fair to this guy there is the odd study that found homeopathy has a separate effect than the placebo method, however this is not the norm, and even then comparing these studies to the placebo effect still doesn't prove it works as an effective treatment. That's the thing with your study, it's comparing a medical procedure with a phenomenon, and not conventional techniques. Even then the study you cite was so good the same research team later corrected their original conclusion. Even if we go by your ridiculous logic that 'you can only fail to prove it does work', then homeopathy is still proven bollocks. That line of bold conjecture alone is proof that homeopathy shouldn't be considered a science. The whole purpose of science is that any data found is falsifiable, yet your logic states the opposite, with two clauses that mean exactly the same thing. You can prove something doesn't work, it's called a test. How about if we fired an artillery shell at your chest covered by just a bin bag? Remember you can't prove the bin bag doesn't work at absorbing the impact of artillery shells, your splattered corpse is instead failing to prove it does work.

If we actually can the crap for a minute and actually talk about science, which this article fails to do, then we'll discover a wide consensus that homeopathy is alternative bollocks. These homeopathic practitioners are nothing more than phony snake oil merchants. This one in particular is a disgusting human being who will happily manipulate others into taking treatments that are not medically proven to improve their condition, and when that condition is aimed at cancer patients this attitude becomes even more vile. Firstly there's strong evidence that homeopathy has an adverse affect on cancer patients, but the act of conning desperate cancer patients out of their already depleted monetary resources is one of the shittiest things you can do as a human being. And that's all homeopathy is, exploiting people.

Before my mind completely implodes with this stupidity I will leave you with some words from the great James Randi, who destroys this phony pseudoscience with straight logic. This is a far better explanation of what homeopathy and pseudoscience are than by any of these fraudsters previously mentioned.
