The ABC Homeopathy Forum

Ad hominem posts

I quote:
Arguments are ad hominem when they use factual claims or propositions by attacking or appealing to a characteristic or a belief of the source or origin of the proposition or claim (i.e., the person – — argument to the person, Latin: “ad hominem”), rather than by addressing the substance of the argument itself, and producing evidence for or against it following the rules of logic. These arguments may be logically valid, but they also can be logically unsound, because they are not based on the rules of logic.

Is this familiar?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
The homeopathic remedy which best matches these symptoms is Ignatia Amara

Hi Giri

Do you really believe that homeopathic medicines really change a person's attitude?

No I don't believe so. I used to believe but then ....l

After I my acquaintance with many people on this site my whole thinking has changed.

Thank God that this site exists so these hotheads can dispose off their energy here otherwise they would have caused havoc elsewhere or in their own homes and lives in general.

We see some people here and then we wonder when do they go to sleep.

Good for the world that they are sitting at their computer, otherwise God knows what would they be doing otherwise.

Hi Murthy,
Homeopathic medicines can change person's attitude but for a short time.

Yeah sure. Sometimes donkey on the boat or most times boat on the donkey.

Sometimes medicine can give some rest for a while.

I think attacking or insulting an individual when something they say displeases one(i.e., provided there is no provocation) is usually the response of a person who feels threatened and is unable to muster logical arguments to counter or reply. It is supposed to be a sign of an inferiority complex, but I think it is as much a sign of being annoyed at being questioned or at another's remarks, or being too lazy to muster a logical argument. Its so much easier to be rude and insulting, and distracts (or so they hope) from the fact of the questions left unanswered. Can medication solve that? I think not, but it would be worth trying.

I don't know about the efficacy of medication but meditation will surely help.. I was told.

Yet to try it. :-)

In my humble opinion homeo remedies cannot change the worth or intrinsic value of a person, but the remedies can correct the deviations from intrinsic value. Meditation is a very powerful tool for correcting deviations from intrinsic worth and enhancing the intrinsic worth. But here one has to be very patient as the change is very marginal at each effort. Therefore the one who demonstrates consistency and sincerity reaps rich dividends in the long run. The biggest disadvantage of the path of meditation is that if one fails one has to blame himself, while when one is on homeopathic medication he can always blame his homeopath.

Either way this online hospital is providing treatment for even those argumentative people (if not cure)

Because sites like this give'em disposal of their demonic energy and hyperactivity.

One only wonders that they are here not as a patient but reverse.

How can they come as patients? They are so impatient !! Anyway this hospital is leading them to cure. What a miraculous way of treatment!!
