When I was in Oz this was a big deal, everyone was getting into reflexology.
However, I do believe in homeopathic medicine. I like to combine the best of both worlds, modern medicine and homeopathic. If one works better then the other, I go with it.
I think JWs are hypochondriacs anyways. I think if they sit and wallow in their diseases it gives them something to discuss other then religion. It's got to be so boring. You are not allowed to have any outside interests, so why not convince yourself you have some kind of unknown disease that way you can look forward to the new system when all your ailments will be done away with. Granted you will inhabit the earth with a bunch of loons, but who the hell cares you will be perfect!
