Raiki and Toa for instance.



Quite difficult getting a hold of untampered seeds.



Solid.



Gold.



What about The Conscience?
The Holy Spirit?
And the Pearl of Great Price?

What is the Pearl of Great Price, please ? And, how is it implemented ?

I asked:



To which you replied:



Which point were you saying no to, that you will not provide support for your magic water or that you are going to play the victim from here on out.

When somebody is rude to me,
I usually don't listen to what they say.

How is pointing out that homeopathy is about magic water and that it is not supported by the evidence rude?

There is the placebo effect but to sell it as anything better is dishonest.
To sell it as a placebo is dishonest.

For rude personages.
Yes.

FYI - officialese and sarcasm = poor logic.
I can see how asking for evidence would upset you. Pardon me for not kowtowing to your peculiar, Swiss cheese-style ideology.

And by the way, since you seemed so horrible at it last time, that wasn't sarcasm. I'm being completely serious.

Asking for evidence is not rude.

On the other hand, not caring about evidence when treating sick people is potentially lethal for those people. So even if we are rude, at least we are not willfully endangering others.

You first. Not caring about evidence is one of the strongest forms of arrogance that I can imagine.

cant understand a word u dudes saying
If you cannot follow along a simple conversation, you have no business treating sick people.

The Pearl of Great Price is :

Stop sinning.
Be perfect.
Less intellectualism,
More practice.
Share,
Help,
Care.

Its impossible for human beings to turn a switch and immediately stop sinning. It is so interwoven into our Being that we wont stop till we reach Heaven ; however it is certainly a noble thing to try to achieve while here on earth.

It is also impossible to be absolutely perfect. Humans are imperfect by nature. But again, it is noble to try in this direction.

God wants us to use our intellect as well as our will and emotions in giving him glory, and to grow in his knowledge. So, we should increase intellectually since the Christian Faith doesnt expect that to be discounted .

More practice ; yes if its in terms of being more like Christ thru action.

Yes on the remainder ; thats our dutiful christian service .

Holistic, Homeopathy and Naturopathy are not all the same fields.

I'm very interested in pursuing a degree in Homeopathy.
I have been comparing it to clinical/pharmaceutical medicine;
I am 100% convinced Homeopathy/Naturopathy are far more reliable.

I will be going at a degree in a couple years time.
In the mean time I plan on creating my own self-sustainable green garden,
And grow my own food 100% naturally.
Totally into health, and healing the body through healthy foods.
IMO - everybody should get involved in it.
Prevents cancer, prevents disease, and in the event of a crisis
Prevents death.
Homeopathy also has a lot to do with survival skills.

As I understand it, homeopathic substances have filtered out the active ingredient entirely. At least the high quality ones.

I am a person whom western medicine has completely failed. I have had great benefit from herbs. I don't know how this might fit into your definitions, but homeopathy as I defined it here is bogus. Healthy food is ideal, supplements can help
