Re: [H] Apoplexy [was: Combos vs. Singles

Hi, Shannon --

It's a noble thing to be able to do, to understand and tolerate anything
posing as anything else and to be ready to explain and promote it
regardless of the consequences. I don't have your stomach for it, but I
appreciate that your intent in doing so has nothing in common with the
effect it has in confusing newcomers to homoeopathy about what planet
"homoeopaths" are on who will do this; that you have no idea of the
destructiveness of calling every stupid idea, unsupported conjecture, and
mindless idiocy a "type" of homoeopathy and may never be capable of taking
responsibility for clarifying the confusion yourself.
