  Homeopathy popular in Jehovah's Witnesses ?

  is homeopathy ( the treatment of a disease using, in small doses, drugs that produce symtoms like those of the disease so that one's natural immune system can fight off the disease ) popular among active jw's ?

  my son who was raised as a jw has a large ( adult male palm size ) fatty growth on his back.

  his jw mother is treating him with homeopathy, as is a so called doctor.

  sass_my_frass: in that description, "small doses" hardly covers it. More like, "doses so small no amount of the original substance could possibly be in the preparation."

  It's an amusing notion, how uncritical we can be with beliefs that have emotional power over us, but it truly is sad when we see the actual effects of it in people we love. I had a friend who pursued alternative therapy for her pain, only to see watch her go up and down on the roller coaster of hope and despair.

  zensim, huh? I don't think I know what you're talking about. Was something I said about reflexology/iridology unfair? Is that what you're referring to?

  They (JWs) say they are Bible based. They (JWs) say they are Christians. The article says only this I believe.

  Outlaw ... sigh...

  As iridology maps the body with irises, reflexology maps the body with the feet, the right foot corresponding to the right side of the body and the left foot corresponding to the left side of the body.

  They certainly resemble each other in terms of their sheer silliness. They both have no basis in physiology.

  Also. It is you're. Not your. You've done it like 20 times now, and though your punctuation style is rather grating, I think you could make an effort to at least use the right words a bit more.

  Honestly, iridology is nonsense. It has no basis in reality, simply in wishful thinking. But again, the counter-medical culture of JWs fosters these beliefs, but pseudo-science is probably on the rise in many parts of North America and Europe.

  Apparently, the flash light is common. (In the quick search I did) Iridology resembles reflexology quite a bit.

  No, I'm right here, waiting for you. If you talk about your thrush, I will call you an agent working against U.N.C.L.E., brand you a heretic, and strap you naked to a pole and wait for those who pass by to throw various vegetables at you. :)

  (Thrush was the name of the enemy agency in Man from UNCLE in case anyone is confused.)
