[B][SIZE="5"] The rest of us will seek the appropriate professional for the injury or illness we face. Sometimes that will be a medical doctor, sometimes a chiropractor, sometimes a dentist.

I also notice that when I pointed out a drug that the almighty medical doctors prescribed for years that horribly maimed thousands, you said that was so long ago ( I bet no quack chiropractor would ever have thought prescribing that was a good idea). When I pointed out recent ones, you say that's only 5. And you failed to address the fact that doctors are the third leading cause of death in the U.S. according to the fly-by night anti-medical establishment Johns Hopkins. Very good at deflecting and self admiring.

Excellent---a scientific study of ONE. Maybe you could publish that in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Hopefully you are not the spokesperson for "the rest of us". I would hope "the rest of us" have the good judgement to first see a qualified professional and not a snake oil salesman.

But feel free to keep your arrogance about how great you are.

Again, it's not arrogance when it is a simple fact. As stated above, the Kansas City Chiefs are not "arrogant" when they state they are a better football team than Wildwood HS. Also as stated above, we are not playing the same game in the same league. It's not me personally, the debate is over the qualifications of board certified medical doctors and specialists vs glorified masseuses.

The real arrogance is an amateur with very little medical knowledge, thinking they can intelligently debate this subject with 2 experts. I'd hate to be your electrician or plumber or mechanic---debate with them as well?

( I bet no quack chiropractor would ever have thought prescribing that was a good idea).

That's because no state that I know of would ever let chiropractors prescribe pharmaceuticals. OMG, speak of disasters.

the fact that doctors are the third leading cause of death

Not "a fact" That study was thoroughly debunked. It's a long explanation that I doubt you would understand, but the short version is that study used data, such a medication being administered by a nurse 30 minutes late sometime during a hospital stay as a cause of death. Let's get this straight----the study counted Tylenol, prescribed by a physician, to a terminal cancer patient in the hospital that was given 1/2 hour late 2 weeks prior to death as a "medication error" that resulted in death.

But here's something that doesn't even require a study: Doctors are the number 1 cause of saving lives. I wonder how many chiropractors have saved a life

Best advice: Quit while you are behind and cut you losses.
