I have to admit, not a bad article. I'll have more so say about it in the next day or two. I feel a certain more coming down to earth here. As in, you can catch more flies with honey than with a sticky strip.

We needed someone to sit on a dinner guest and read this article to her last night.
The conversation wandered over many topics, as conversations will, and when it hit on health issues we heard some suggestions from one of the ladies of things that she said had helped her. "I have some homeopathics that will take care of that," and "but the Vibrational Theropist fixed it." She didn't want to hear about medical research - "well, everything doesn't have to be science." She didn't seem to hear me when I said that homeopathic preparations tend to be so diluted that they contain only distilled water, or that those vibrations and energies have never been detected and are totally unknown to physics.
I restrained myself and didn't say "placebo effect" because it was clear that she was fully committed to magical thinking. And besides, this was a nice dinner with friends, not a debate. But if you have fallen off your bicycle again and your knee hurts, maybe the emergency room would be a better choice than the homeopathic aisle at the market. And if you have long-standing issues with your mother, maybe a real therapist would help more than adjusting your non-existand vibrational energies.
