Categories or Degrees of Existence (Agnosticism)

My family and many of my friends have used homepathics for years. I know it works better in some situations than allopathic meds, and as mentioned below, no one (or animal) would ever die by an overdose, unlike many allopathic meds. I personally do believe in faith but do not believe faith is what is relieving the baby's teething or a horse/cat/dog's ailment, etc., when given homeopathics. I've too many years experience with it to fall for the placebo explanation. I'm sure many of those who are invested in big pharma will be doing whatever they can to campaign against anything that might take a bite out of their profits. I don't think it will change the opinions of those who have used these remedies and have very good experiences with them for years. --> More anecdotal evidence people take seriously.
