07/23/2003 Entry: "Alternative medicine"

Alice (Legally Blonde) writes

I work in a clinic (or two) of natural medicine, complementary or "alternative" therapies etc... there's heaps of medical evidence and research etc that says this is A Good Thing and can help sort out problems that "conventional" medicine (ie operations, antibiotics, that sort of thing) has trouble righting.

BUT

Someone - a kind, well meaning, would be helpful someone - in church asked me how I could justify me - a Christian - working there. Hmmm. Confused alice asks why? what possible objections could there be? I was so unprepared for the attack.

Please can someone, anyone, please, explain to an upset naiive blonde what's so evil, from a Xn point of view, about acupuncture, chinese medicine, homoeopathy, osteopathy, naturopathy, counselling or detox?

So what do you think? Is acupuncture a gift from God, or Satan's snare? Is homeopathy the highway to hell, or a heavenly healer? Don't tell me -- tell Alice.
