This is a normal post I'd argue that the
"Just because we don't understand it doesn't mean it doesn't work" argument (#1) is actually less ridiculous than the "My brother/sister etc. has *insert problem here* and homeopathy worked for them" (#2).

The reason being that #1 is logically sound, but irrelevant. That argument is technically right: homeopathy ISN'T bullshit because of their flawed understanding... it's bullshit because studies have shown that it doesn't work.

#2, however, is just hearsay, with no logical postulates whatsoever.

This is a normal post homephathy = placebo
it DOES work for those fools who believe on it.
and it can't be refuted by science until science can explain the placebo effect workings.

This is a normal post Placebos don't work unless the problem is psychological, i.e. stress related etc.
No amount of placebo is going to cure cancer.

This is a normal post there is genuinely lots of shit that we as a species don't know
but we do know that homeopathy doesn't work.
