A netizen
gave his comment after he had read
my
blogs:
"Our TCM (Traditional
Chinese Medicine) is born
with
the attribute of being
close to people, and
TCM
serves the people,
so the people affirm and love it ."
I
replied: What you said is right
!
Unfortunately, for a long time , many
pseudo scholars
have
framed our TCM wantonly and unjustifiably ,
so
that many
persons are always skeptical of our
TCM.
Even in
the face of a large number of facts that our
TCM
treats
many diseases effectively, these persons still
don't
believe
our TCM , mainly because they
can't explain or
understand these
facts.
This kind
of logic seems to be reasonable, but in fact
it
is very
misleading , because it completely violates
the
human survival
rule.
As we
know, the human survival rule
has always been:
being, the
"Effectiveness first , Rationality
second"
shall be
taken as the criterion.
For
example, we human beings have a long history of
eating rice,
which has been more than 7000 years.
However, at the time when people began
to eat rice ,
they
knew nothing about the molecular structure
of
rice ,
the digestion process in the
human body, or its nutritional value.
But at
that time, people only discovered and
confirmed
the
effectiveness and rationality of eating rice.
And it is
precisely because of their insistence on
eating
rice that
the later human survival and
development
came into being!
So , it
should be clearly recognized that some
pseudo
scholars
are especially skillful at playing
with
professional terms to teast ,
misleading patients, even
at
last delaying patients'
treatment !
But, all
of these are really not desirable !
Now,
let's make up a joke for these pseudo scholars.
A fool
boy ate a mouthful of meat and then dared not
eat the meat any more
.
His
mother asked him why he stopped eating meat.
The fool
boy said seriously once again:
"Mom, I dare not
eat
meat any
more, because I
don't
know
whether the meat I just ate will promote
the
growth of
hemorrhoids or the growth of brain ".
Then,
the poor mother was very helpless , so
she
advised her
son to eat more vegetables.
So, the
fool boy took a mouthful of vegetarian
food,
but then, he still dared not
eat it any more.
At this
time, his mother asked him why he
didn't eat
a little more
?
The fool
boy said with great seriously again :
"Mom, I don't dare to eat
vegetarian food any more,
because I
don't know if the vegetarian food I just
ate
will help cancer cells grow
?"
His
mother was about to collapse !
In fact,
many pseudo scholars want to make all patients
become
such fools.
So, we
can see that these pseudo scholars
are
essentially a gang of ruffians with
some professional
knowledge .
Therefore, in order to stop this kind of ruffian making
troubles with our TCM, we can elaborate the
fourth
law of medical science
according to the human survival
rule.
The Fourth Law of
Medical Science
When we evaluate a treatment , we
should chech
the
effectiveness first , then check rationality
,
and
understanding is last but better.
But if it
cannot be understood for
the time
being,
the"Effectiveness first,
Rationality second" shall be
taken
as the
criterion.
