Homeopathy

Hi Martin, I see that you added this:

  • Many of his remedies were based on the Classical belief that "like cures like" and in this he was practising what today is regarded as homeopathy.

I am considering adding something like this into the History of Homeopathy article, is this something that is widely kown, do homeopaths acknowledge this, and did he actually call it 'likes cures likes'? D. Matt Innis 16:15, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
