Nope, you're wrong again, as usual. Like Pigs, I know the difference between facts and faith. He simply chooses not to have faith but I choose to have it. I know full well that it's not factual or scientific. |

For whatever it's worth, I agree with you. Yesterday a WaPo blog post about a recently published study hit one of my feeds that brought to mind this thread: Why Some People Think Total Nonsense Is Really DeepThe relevant quote: "Those more receptive to bullshit are less reflective, lower in cognitive ability (i.e., verbal and fluid intelligence, numeracy), are more prone to ontological confusions [beliefs in things for which there is no empirical evidence (e.g., that prayers have the ability to heal)] and conspiratorial ideation, are more likely to hold religious and paranormal beliefs, and are more likely to endorse complementary and alternative medicine." It wouldn't surprise me if such people are also more susceptible to scam artists and the like than those who stay firmly grounded in reality. That's not a good way to go through life. |

I really didn't expect that anyone could seriously assert in 2015 that acupuncture was a "sham". People have undergone major surgery using acupuncture as the only anesthetic; no placebo effect can do that.My mother has a condition called myatonia, which is related to muscular dystrophy. About 30 years ago, she was told that she likely would soon need a wheelchair to get about. Instead of accepting this, she went for acupuncture treatment, and periodic treatments have allowed her to continue walking quite well. Only in the last year or so (she is 87) has she started using a walker. Acupuncture is no sham. |

Acupuncture cannot and has not been used as an anaestheticOnce again, correlation does not imply causation. No medical diagnosis is perfect. Your mother may well have maintained her condition just by doing nothing. |

Here is a paper about a case where acupuncture WAS used as the sole method of anesthesia in surgery: ACUPUNCTURE AS SURGICAL ANESTHESIA: A CASE OF INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE TREATING BREAST CANCER SEQUELAEIt has also been used in open-heart surgery, in conjunction with reduced amounts of normal anesthesia: Acupuncture anesthesia for open heart surgery in contemporary China.

It doesn't imply that acupuncture added anything useful. It's also possible the breathing regimen had some effect.I do not trust the veracity of the source in 1. I would need to read an analysis from a legitimate science-based medical source. |

There may well be some psychological benefit to thinking that you "should" be getting better or believing you're receiving treatment even if you aren't. If so, that would be one of the confounding variables a placebo controls against. |
