OK, let's be very clear what "homeopathic" means. The old idea that "a 
little bit of what's bad for you can actually be useful" is the foundation

of vaccines and allergy treatment, and it's a very homeopathic idea. The 
idea that "by diluting something 10 to 1 and doing it 12 times in a row we

get effective medicine because it somehow remembers that there used to be
a 
molecule or two of the medicine in it", we're talking complete silliness.
