personally i think homeopathy is more scientific. when looking at an illness the mind and/or body produces all aspects of the symptoms are taken into account rather than looking at the symptoms and treating the symptoms seperatley ( or suppressing the symptoms). homeopathy has a strong foundation of principles which can always be relied upon. allopathy does not. the germ theory is being rapidly disproved, and allopathy even uses homeopathic principles on occasion without knowing it. for example ritalin is given for hyperactivity. allopathy recognises primary and secondary body reaction when it suits them e.g. don't drink alcohol when you are cold as it will warm you up and make you colder in the long run. however,this principle of primary and secondary reaction is fundamental in homeopathy and is an essential part of homeopathy. homeopathy is energy medicine, and this causes a problem in the allopathic world. it is a shame we do not have the instruments to measure this energy as yet.
