Am I not allowed to criticize decades of research on astrology because I haven’t paid any attention to it?
If 30 years of research and clinical debate have led to this situation where you get 5 different opinions from 5 different doctors, then maybe it’s time to kick out the incumbents and replace them with people who adhere a little better to the scientific method. I would rather trust my medical care to a group of particle physicists who had one year to study medicine than the 30 year experts who can’t reproduce any of each others’ work and seem ignorant of any advances in statistics or inference over the same period of time.
