Try www.hpathy.com. let the page load and click discussion forums.Once you enter the discussion forums,add as a new favourite.Delete the old one to avoid confusion.

Hi Bach,

Our dear friend Hansel seems to have disappeared from there though! He seems to think it more beneficial to spend his time over at Randiland dazzling people with his whit and superior knowledge of scientific principles!!!

Hi Bach,

I have just visited Randiland now and this is one of Hansel's latest little gems. What do you think?



I think we should be past labelling anything "impossible". If only because it would leave us open in a debate to the long list of things that were labelled "impossible" at the start of the 20'th century, but which nevertheless turned out to be possible later.

Homeopathy is unsupported by any current knowledge of medicine and physics.

Homeopathy is also largely unsupported by any valid practical observation.

Finally, homeopathy is contradicted by a long chain of accepted facts within physics and pathology.

From a scientific POV, that is about as close to impossible as you can get, but not quite there.

Hans

hi sarah -

i find that passage unobjectionable. hans clearly represents a mainstream perspective that has produced no or very scant evidence, within its own perspective and value system, that confirms claims made from our side. i wouldn't expect hans to mince words about that.

however, the open sarcasm and devaluation of our professional and intellectual ethic, that often characterizes his rhetoric, is insupportable ... at least past a certain point. though even that is difficult to judge fairly, as many on our side also fall prey to a variety of rhetorical and egoistic excesses ... speaking, frankly, of myself, at least.

It is intimated to me that all members from Pakistan have been banned from www.hpathy.com or atleast banned have been imposed on those IP's which are linked from Pakistan. Bcos few regular members have reported me that they are not accessing hpathy forum for many days, even after starting from the main page.

This was earlier happend three times when complaint was filed to Dr. Bhattia webmaster. He said, "he did nothing and there is no problem with IPs". But unfortunately, it was disclosed by our own resources that webmaster said that he has blocked IP's two times.

I think, this is wrong decission to put ban over members. This shows impartiality on admin part. It is my request to hpathy administrators to uplift ban over the members.

If members are leaving that forum then there could be other reasons beside joing landiland that hpathy team is not allowing members to put their right to write freely.

Thanks
