Apparently Alternative Medicine Doesn’t Exist.
Wallace Sampson, the founding editor of “The Scientific Review of Alternative Medicine” (SRAM), is recently quoted as saying that alternative treatments “are either unproven or disproven … Acupuncture is a placebo. Homeopathy is one step above fraud. It goes on and on. The fact that they are so widely used is evidence for how gullible large segments of our society are.”
Digging a little deeper you find that SRAM is published by Prometheus Books a publishing company founded in August 1969 by Paul Kurtz. Kurtz also founded the “Council for Secular Humanism (CSH)”. According to CSH web site the “Council for Secular Humanism is North America’s leading organization for non-religious people”. Further research indicates that Secular Humanism is a form of religion that places man before God, the thought that man is practically a god, Secular Humanism also rejects religion and the supernatural.
It would appear that SRAM has a bias towards debunking Alternative and Complementary medicine rather than an objective, neutral stance which considers both sides of an argument.
As a professional involved in the Alternative and Complementary medicine field, specifically the field of energy psychology, I can attest to the success of Alternative and Complementary medicine. Just ask the hundreds of clients I have dealt with who have experienced dramatic pain relief, trauma relief, weight loss, improved sleeping habits, better sports results, reduced stress (the list goes on and on…) what they think about Sampson’s statement.
