Gordon, even if you are trying to beat this issue to death, you'll
never get more than a stalemate out of this one!
I have never tried to force my type of medicine on any of you. Why
should I? My patients are happy. I'm happy. You and your peers seem
to be the only miserable ones around bemoaning the steady loss of
patients to the alternative camp.
Just look at Europe. There has been a steady exodus from 'synthetic'
medicine for over a decade now, and it'll be just a matter of time
before more people on this continent will abandon their drug and white
coat worship as well and visit different doctors for different needs.

This is very interesting. I have come exactly to the same conclusions
but in regards to *conventional* medicine.
You see, I don't just treat little old ladies that wouldn't know any
different of what is being done, but a bulk of my patients consist of
teachers, lawyers, judges, nurses, accountants, university graduates,
and various health practitioners.
If these people have gotten results with my method after having been
unsuccessful with yours or their own, I certainly wouldn't lose any
sleep over whether you or your peers approve of my treatments ---
let's face it, with all the blunders committed by "scientific" MDs
over the years, I know a lot of people who hold your *scientific*
method in much lower esteem than they hold mine!

Sorry, but I'm not familiar OR interested with what appears to be
'NEW AGE' medicine (ayurveda, crystals), with the exception of homeo-
pathy, of which I took a course. But Gordon, you already knew that -
you just wanted to make my system look a bit more far out, right?
I use homeopathy very little, since my cellular test (EMR) is hard to
beat for accuracy and minerals are more predictable, while homeopathy
does have a problem with reliability, especially in acute conditions.
An exception perhaps are homeopathic nosodes which act fairly quickly
and are more dependable in certain viral or bacterial situations.

I have met the challenges of hundreds of sceptics by verifying the
accuracy of measuring their mineral status to their total satisfac-
tion --- in other words EVERYONE INVOLVED is happy!
If you were to cook a meal, would you worry over whether EVERYONE
in this world would find it to their liking, or only those that end
up eating it?
Since I have financed every research project that I have undertaken
entirely myself, I don't need to follow any of your rules or guide-
lines to satisfy any aspects of a grant application, which YOU may
have to; neither am I concerned of whether or not my study designs
meet your or anyone else's criteria or acceptance.

I think there would be more justification for an uneducated person
growing up in an uncivilized environment to believe in a flat earth,
than for a civilized, well educated and scientifically trained mind
to follow the doctrine of evolution.
Genetic engineering of course is now the final frontier to show God
how it is (properly) done. Now we've become capable of creating our
own paradise and give disease (and God) the boot, right?
But just before we get rid of Him for good, perhaps He could leave us
some pointers on how to solve a couple of tiny problems, such as war,
poverty, racism, crime, riots, substance abuse... And one last thing,
could He also give us a hint on how to control natural disasters, the
weather, and last, but not least --- peace?
