I'll be honest, I'm still trying to fully form my position on this and am unsure which side I'm coming in on.
For those going on about the "crazy religious" people, out of curiosity (as part of it makes me wonder how much of this is hatred for religions and part how much is hatred for christians) I'd ask this...
If this person was a...
athiest that was, to use a politically incorrect but more to the point term, a Hippy who didn't trust "the man" and the corporations and because of that wanted to use holistic healing.
American Indian family wanting to use traditional means of medicine due to their cultural traditions.
Wiccan who wanted holistic healing due to their religious beleifs.
Would all those be "Stupid ****s" and "lunatics" that were "brainwashing" their kid?
I'm not going to blame religion for this, its explicitly that homeopathic, herb doctor crap.
You trot out an Indian and all of a sudden its a miricle cure.
If its a guy who actually studies wtf he's doing, its a fraud.
There is not a whole lot I dislike more than homeopathy, herb, crap "miracle cures".
