21. Do you think that all healing for any one ailment is done by a single compound?
If so, you don't know much about medicine. I'm no healthcare provider, but even I know that my doctor doesn't rely on one form of medicine to cure me of my ills. And they do recommend home remedies when warranted. That is complementary, or do you not understand the meaning of the word itself? I've linked it to the dictionary in case you need to refresh your memory of the definition.

What I'm getting from your "argument" is that you've done zero research into Complementary Medicine. Whether you look at the NIH site, or Wikipedia, or wherever that discusses it in a fairly neutral light, they all acknowledge that it does some good in certain areas. I don't know the subject well enough to list those successes off the top of my head, but there's Google if you care to research it at all.

But I do get the impression you have no intention of doing that. Better to just tear it down and keep to your narrow view of it, instead of looking at the big and whole picture.
