> Homeopathic practitioners sell false hope.
While true, the example of GP is convincing, in the same way that placebos are effective: homeopathy gets some people something in certain situations. I don't think homeopathy should be part of regular medical treatment, but I don't see the harm if it's used (on peoples own dime, which is how it works in my country) alongside or after regular medicine.
It's a bit like religion perhaps, I don't want it to replace science, but if it helps some people get through dark times, maybe we should let them.
