Gotcha. I thought homeopathic was just any type of treatment that was "natural".
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

It's used colloquially that way by some, but it's its own thing. A very specific set of wacky, nutty rules for how to treat illness.

That's what the homeopathy industry exploits all the time - many people don't know how absurd homeopathy actually is and think it just means natural or herbal.

If water has a memory, does it forget all the poo that once dissolved?

I mean, the 'natural' and 'herbal' stuff has their own set of issues that need to be ironed out, but yeah this OP was referring specifically to Homeopathy with a capital H.

Somewhere, somehow, someone is drinking water that has miniscule parts of my poo. And I am drinking yours too.

Yeah I'm not even familiar with that type of stuff. Weird.

I love there nonsense that because something is natural (somehow chemicals used in industrial medicine don't count) must be safe and healthy
