Science
1.The branch of knowledge that produces theoretical explanations of natural phenomena based on experiments and observations.
2.An area of such knowledge that is restricted to explaining a limited class of phenomena.
Homeopathy is science as it produces theoretical explanations of natural phenomena based on experiments and observations. Even if Dr MAS considers it to be a phenomenon as pointed out by respectable Simone, it remains science.
This is my explanation to it:
Put in simple words.
Homeopathy is a Science, when it comes to the proving side of it as the crude or near crude medicine will produce the symptoms in a healthy person any where and in any circumstances. Reproving of the same medicinal substances has produced the same results in past as well as in the near past.
Homeopathy is an art, when comes to the application applying the Similia Similibus Curantur is an art.
Hope this will satisfy the knowledge thirsty curiosity in you.
Curiosity begets rewards.
