I was only illustrating the theory behind the part that a "weakened strain of something" can sometimes help during a treatment. Which is a sound theory as proven by antibiotics and other vaccinations. Read the second line from your Wikipedia article. I didn't say that the remedies work ... only that the theory is sound.

Bold is mine. There's your spirituality.

Homeopathy is a subset of naturopathy, not the other way around, so any implication that I was talking about naturopathy as a whole is undue extrapolation on your part...your assumption was erraneous.

Like I said,
"MY BAD."
Didn't say Wikipedia had a bias ... just the article itself. Yes, I have a pretty clear understanding of what a Wiki is and what Wikipedia itself is. I also know what Wikipedia claims to be ... I have been a contributor to Wikipedia in the past ... not so much now. It's sort of "muddy" information now. Just because an article has a ton of sources listed at the bottom doesn't give it any more credibility. I've written term papers before, too.
