In my last article, I said I myself had already  successfully

identified a fraud of a pseudo scholar by the correlation 

of knowledge . 

Now, I will talk about it detailly in this  article.

A pseudo scholar said:

“TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) can't even tell how

many bones there are in the human body , so that TCM is

unscientific and ridiculous ，   and also   TCO  (Traditional

Chinese Orthopedics) is even more ridiculous .”

For it , I replied as below:

This kind of logic is really strange as if the speaker's brain

might have been flooded by watre !

But our TCO is not as useless as this pseudo scholar said,

and In fact,  our TCO is very effective for the patients to

cure bone injuries if the patients take Traditional Chinese

drugs to invigorate the circulation of blood ,    to remove

blood stasis or to relieve pain ,and if they apply the  bone

setting techniques and the manipulation for soft tissues.

And  even more ,      our TCO   can also cure    rheumatoid 

arthritis effectively.

And besides , the most important thing to solve problems

is to see the effect ,   rather than focusing on unimportant

details  or  gossiping about these details ,  sometimes, we

can even ignore some details. 

In other words ,  we  should  pay  attention mainly to  the

correlation of knowledge or information.

As it's something like driving across a bridge:

When driving across  the bridge ,    we only need  to care 

about the specific road conditions at that time , especially

whether the vehicles in front can run normally.

At this very moment ,    None of us  will count the number 

of piers of this bridge ,  or   count  the number of    stayed

steel cables of this bridge ,  nor   consider   whether      the

water molecules  in the river under the bridge   turn left  or

right!

 And TCO's treating bone injuries is just something like so.

TCO doctors only need to consider the patient's injury and

refer to the treatment methods of similar cases before, and

generally do not consider how many bones the patient has!

Even if   the number of his bones    had changed   for some

reason before ,   it will not necessarily  change    the way to

treat his bone injury now!

Therefore ,  using similar means  to ruin our TCM    is pure  malicious ! 

Here is a question about the correlation of knowledge.

That is， when solving practical problems , we must take

the correlation of knowledge into account. and meanwhile

, any irrelevant knowledge, even true, can be ignored. 

For example ,  we do not need to recite    the Pythagorean

theorem or multiplication table    when analyzing the bone

injuries of patients .  Although Pythagorean theorem    and

multiplication table are true and reliable ,    they are      not

relevant to the problems to be solved.

Actually, for a long time, there have been literary ruffians

who are particularly good at making logic traps to ruin  

our TCM  with much irrelevant knowledge .

They seem to be very professional ,    but they are really

shameless and dirty.
