homiopathy

An informal event when your homies come over to cheer you up after a failure in anything (relationships, work, fight with parents, finals, sickness). They may bring beer, pizza, ice cream, weed or whatever they know you love. You spend a night together, laugh over and talk about whatever takes your mind off the bad thoughts. As a result, you feel better and get over whatever failure you experienced faster.

I had a meltdown. Got much better after a session of homiopathy.

Man, you look terrible! Homiopathy! Stat!

homeopathic intelligence

The sort of intelligence possessed by narcissists who spend half the time guffing about how mentally developed they are and spend the other half making the same stupid mistakes ... again and again and again. From the so-called Law of Infinitesimals followed in preparing homeopathic doses, which alleges that the more medicine there is in the medicine, the less medicine there is in the medicine, and vice versa.

Sarah told me how stupid all her classmates are, and then went off to shell out for another month of mildew under her cowboy landlord. She has plenty of intelligence, does ol' Sarah, but I'm afraid it's mostly homeopathic intelligence.

Homeopathy

A fraud scheme that has been running since the 1700's by which a guillible person is sold a substance, usually pure water, as a cure for various ailments. At its inception, an elaborate set of pseudoscientific/pseudoreligeous principles, as a basis for homeopathy, were developed as a smoke screen for the perpatrators to avoid prosecution by the state. Due to the fact that medical science was embryonic at the time, convincing con artists could put forth wild stories regarding how their wonder cures worked, and no credible establishment could contradict them.

The statement "like cures like" is often used, and is qualified by the reasoning that the more dilute a substance becomes, the more potent it becomes. Despite the rational, scientific age that we live in there are many people who, irrationally, believe in homeopathy. Sadly many people with dire health problems, desperate for hope, will spend all they have on a homeopathic cure which consists entirely of either water, sugar pills, or some other such placebo. All objective examinations of homeopathy quickly determine that it could only be a centuries-old get rich quick scheme, as there is no legitimate scientific or medical reasoning behind it.

Mary: I went to a Homeopath today to treat my herpes! He took some herbs, and diluted them with water unitl there wasn't a single atom of the herbs left, and then sold me an ounce of the water for only $200!
Mary's children: Mommy, will we eat today?
Mary: No dearie, mommy needs the grocery money for her homeopathy and the palm reader this month.

homeopathy

Essentially: Quacks. A pseudo-science based purely on anecdotal evidence. This field thrives purely because it is inimical to real science.

Do not be fooled by phrases such as: 'memory of water' as basis for the molecular basis of homeopathy's effectiveness. Such claims have been systematically discredited.

Homeopath: Hello, I'm a homeopath, I practice homeopathy.

You: Throw yourself in a fire, homeopath.
