Well, I think it's fair to attack it the way you did. And funny.

Homeopathy is also really mind-blowingly difficult, probably even impossible. Still funny to make fun of it, despite its veneer of rational process (just with a different, worse, set of axioms.) And similar efficacy.

Even psychopharmacology has had some important successes on very nasty diseases like schizophrenia and bipolar.
