I protest the fact that this article has not been approved by any homeopath. What is the idea in not allowing an expert in the field approve an article (since that was what Citizendium was created for in the first place)?—[[User:Ramanand Jhingade|Ramanand Jhingade]] 13:29, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

:It seems to me that some discussion should be provided of reputable views of homeopathy. For example, [http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/ART00470/Homeopathic-Medicine.html Dr. Weil] who says: "Dr. Weil feels that homeopathy has value, even if it merely evokes a placebo response. If that response does indeed heal then it has great value - in other words, rather than discounting the placebo response, physicians should exploit it as a safe, effective way to treat disease."

It seems to me that some discussion should be provided of reputable views of homeopathy. For example, Dr. Weil who says: "Dr. Weil feels that homeopathy has value, even if it merely evokes a placebo response. If that response does indeed heal then it has great value - in other words, rather than discounting the placebo response, physicians should exploit it as a safe, effective way to treat disease."
