The Truth Will Out

Editorial May 2014

In Australia recently, an organization which represents the medical cartel contrived a phony study of homeopathy, and then announced that homeopathy was ineffective. That lie was picked up and repeated by news outlets globally. It spawned numerous articles and comments attacking homeopathy. Such attacks are often part of a coordinated campaign where government policy and funding are at stake. One approach to this is to ignore the attacks and just focus on curing more patients. There is a good rationale for that, as each patient we heal becomes another convert. On the other hand, if people read only disparaging views of homeopathy, that will shape their opinions. When repeated enough, these rants affect the public debate, and public opinion has a way of becoming public policy.

How are we to deal with this undermining of our healing art? One method is to respond quickly and forcefully to any attack. Don’t let the lie go unchallenged. The other approach is to be proactive and send letters to whatever media you are familiar with, sharing your views and experience. Not everyone is comfortable making scientific arguments and quoting studies. Fortunately, your own experience of healing with homeopathy carries as much or more weight.

You can find out when the media are covering homeopathy by putting “Homeopathy” into Google Alerts http://www.google.com/alerts . You will automatically receive announcements of news coverage of homeopathy. To respond to attacks, log in to the site and then post in the “comments” section below the article. Here’s a list of some studies on homeopathy you can paste if need be: https://hpathy.com/scientific-research/research-in-homeopathy-3/ . To be proactive and share your experience, just write letters to the editor of your favorite media outlet. That’s very important!
