Apparently being against vaccinations does not make one anti-vax

One of the problems with homeopathic is that I believe few people know or understand what it means. It's magic tinctures. For some reason legitimate medical resources have carved out space for this nonsense to lend credence that it *might* work when there is no conceivable mechanism in which it would. https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/reference/homeopathy/

Yep. The 'problem' could be that it sometimes does work. Due to the placebo effect. Like meditating or praying (which is really just a form of meditation) helps lower one's heart rate and for example take away anxiety, so can listening to a few friendly words from a homeopath and taking this tiny magic pill.

In addition to placebo effect there is also regression toward the mean. When something is out of balance I.E. you're sick it's easy to attribute getting better to anything at all you give a try. The fact may be you were just returning to normal of your own accord but false causation is given to swinging a chicken over your head or whatever.
