		<description>Dear Mr Golden.  Was Majikthyse's quote from your thesis accurate ?  If so, there appears to be one hell of a divergence from the very equivocal position taken in that and the assertion of efficacy set out above.</description>

		<description>Hi Pamela,

Some people argue that homeopathy should not be used to prevent diseases.  See the link for an article.

http://www.vaccination.inoz.com/homoe.html

I would recommend that if you are interested in the issue of vaccination and the alternatives to vaccination then you should start with researhing the nature of disease. ( see alternative views of the germ theory , eg., Bechapm's theory as opposed to Pastour's).  If you accept that disease is not caused by germs but an unhealthy lifestyle then the issue of prevention shifts from vaccination (or its homeophatic alternatives) to lifestyle choices (e.g., good food, stress and toxin free environment etc..).</description>

		<description>Hi Pamela,

We have not vaccinated our children, nor do we use homeopathy.  We do use Young Living's essential oils on the rare occasion that they get ill, and several supplements as well as good diet.  Feel free to contact me through our website...we've done an incredible amount of research into vaccines.

		<description>Hi there,
I am currently investigating vaccination and its associated risks and alternatives as a mother of young children. From your article it appears that I may have found a solution with homeoprophylaxsis however as a engineer who has completed my own research in the past I realise how the assumptions and conditions of the analysis are so important to the interpretation of the result so I was wondering if you could explain the calculations used to determine effectiveness in your own trial (this is obviously the one I am most interested in if I plan to use the system on my own children). 
Thanks</description>

		<description>Where is the proof that homoeopathy is anything more than pseudo-science? Where are the studies? Where is the evidence that proves the claims made? How do you justify the lies you are feeding people?

This dangerous nonsense is why children are dying. YOU CAN'T VACCINATE WITH WATER!

Open a textbook, read some SCIENCE and wake up to yourselves!</description>

		<description>I feel Majikthyse is typical of the majority people in our society that believe the only way to good health and keeping it is, by being administrated by a manufactured drug of some form. I have discovered good health without taking prescription or over the counter drugs.  When I try to explain to others what I do, there is a absolute disbelief that something other then drugs would improve my health. I think that is the same with vaccination, most believe what that there could not be another way.</description>

		<description>I am not on either side of the fence and have enjoyed the debate. I use both doctors and a naturopath /homeopath who uses a vega machine for diagnosis. This naturopath has diagnosed conditions in me that have not been able to be picked up by other practitioners - her diagnosis is amazing.  Interestingly, over the many years this naturopath has found many links to ill health in many clients as a result of vaccines. I would also welcome a long term research in this area by the medical industry to help make choices about vaccination as a parent less confusing. 
I do find it disappointing that the complementary field does not partake as readily in clinical trials. I understand that these trials are costly and obviously a cheap system of health is not one that is easy to fund! However, it is the credibility when talking to people in the western medical health that would be helpful. Interestingly and ultimately though, it is the personal results that matter as we all know.</description>

		<description>Majikthyse, maybe you need to do a quick search of the Cochrane Collaboration database just so you can get some idea of how much current medical treatment, both surgery and medication has little good quality scientific data to back its use.  A large part of current medical treatments are simply not evidence based, so how can you expect 100% of CAM treatments to adhere to this principle.  

Not to mention medications such as Prozac(a single example) where the data is intentionally distorted and studies showing side effects or lack of efficacy are hidden away and not published.  Is this the type of peer reviewed, double blinded, placebo, cross over, controlled clinical trials that CAM should aspire to?

Isaac, thankyou for all of your hard work and dedication.  I reccomend your books to all my clients who are questioning vaccination because your approach is so straight down the line and commonsense.  Questioning whether to vaccinate their child or not is usually a difficult time for parents and I feel their is an overuse of scare tactics by both sides of the debate.  I love your grounded approach.

Warm regards

		<description>I think the aruments are healthy. We question, they question, its fair and educational. I was dissapointed in the personal slander. Surely we are more enlightened. As a university student , I see where Majikthyse is comming from, thats how we do it at uni.I can see Issacs side as well, I want some long term studies too. I think of all those studies done in the past, with the then, best science had to offer; we learn more, or find more specific tests  and we re-evaluate.  Thats why its important to do long term studies, the cover the social changes that affect our health (WHO, Social determinants to health).I have looked at one of thoses studies, Majikthyse mentioned, the Belladonna control.Iam dissapointed in the results, deeply. They did all the things , double blind,  Homoeopathic preperation(30c),administered on healthy individuals, and no individuals from the Homoeopathic control group, PROVEd the remedy. Homoepathy as I understand it was borne from the treatment of infectious disease, and the reason we know what the remedies do, is because we administered them to healthy individuals until symptoms are produced. lets keep this talk going.Try to meet each other half way and demonstrate using other research, what neither of you can Prove. Ill get back to you with some studies, if any
