Homeopathy — a benign deception?

[摘要] There's a lot to be said for homeopathy. It often makes people feel better. It's harmless. It's cheap. Its practitioners tend to be caring, conscientious and earnest. And yet it is the one topic that sends me into internal paroxysms of exasperation (well, perhaps not the one topic — creationism has a similar effect, together with a few other -isms and creeds). When any of my friends and relations cheerfully announce their latest dramatic cure at the hands of their local homeopath, why do I express my pleasure through gritted teeth and inwardly rage?
