I wish they held doctors, and others practicing pseduo-medicine, to the same standards.

- dublinclontarf 16y agoOver here in China, as you might expect, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is quite popular. But after spending a year teaching in a TCM provincial level university, and talking to a number of the lecturers is it even real? A good few of the lecturers have been disciplined for complaining that TCM is for want of a better term "a load of crap". If the people teaching & practicing it think it's snake oil what does that say about it. And why is it called Traditional Chinese Medicine, why not just call it medicine if it works?
- acangiano 16y agoI phrased it in an ambiguos way. What I meant is "doctors and people practicing pseudo-medicine". I wasn't implying that doctors are practicing pseudo-medicine (well, most of them anyway).
