@hpathbp25 Yeah, don't try it! It's DANGEROUS!

[hpathbp25]

@sicktwistedfreak828 There has not even been a single (accepted) study that even hints that homeopathy might work. All the so called "evidence" that anyone can provide is purely anecdotal. If it works so well, then why can't anyone prove it? Answer: It's water. That's all it is. A glorified placebo.

@hpathbp25 Homeopathic treatment can work for people. I have seen my own sister recover from severe eczema that had spread all over her body within a year of using the treatment. I have seen people recover from stage 4 cancer. All I can say is be willing to investigate for yourself.

@apologiamixer I'm a born again Wiccan, the only lake of fire we visit is located in the fire plane and your bad guy "Stan" is a fictional character made up to scare children during Christmas (Yule).

@the1tigglet Well then, have it your way. But just remember there will be no skiing on the lake of fire.

@apologiamixer nope and here's why because this country WASN'T founded on christianity, the pilgrims WEREN'T all various forms of Christian, and despite your GOP panel wannabees best efforts I don't have to do a d@mn thing any of you fear mongering historical revisionist dominionist christian taliban want me to do just because you claim you know Jebus Crisp personally.

@hpathbp25 I just don't think it's a good idea to tell gay people that they aren't allowed to go to therapy if they want to. I think people should make informed decisions, but in the end, they should be able to make such decisions for themselves.

[hpathbp25]

@christo930 I don't think you can compare this to drugs. No one's addicted to the will to become straight. Most people who seek therapy are those who are on the edge. They're confused about themselves and hear that someone can change their orientation, so they give it a go. Stopping them from hearing about and receiving this "therapy" is the best thing to do. And, unlike drugs, most people won't continue to search.

@hpathbp25 "Limiting someone's freedom to harm themselves is something I'd support"

Absolutely not. The war on drugs and prohibition are the 2 worst social policies of the 20th century and they are/ were aimed at limiting someone ability to harm themselves. The war on drugs has caused incalculable damage to the US. Millions of live ruined by drug arrests, millions of children fatherless because their dad is in jail. Drugs are more potent and cheaper than they were at the beginning of the war!

@christo930 Technically it's not therapy, but it's similar to the argument against homeopathy. You shouldn't be able to sell something under false pretenses, especially if it does more harm than good. Homeopathic medicines should be labled as placebos, and there should be an equivalent for this sort of therapy.

Limiting someone's freedom to harm themselves is something I'd support. Wouldn't you?
