It amuses me that some people in wealthy, technologically advanced societies such as the US, Canada and UK hold condescending views of people in poor and less developed countries for their belief in unscientific medicines and treatments. Before you laugh too hard down your nose at the witch doctor who extracts demons from the sick with a chicken leg and a chant, please stroll around a typical western drug store and observe the abundance of ridiculous products for sale. Sure, they may come in nice clean packages that sport nifty logos and impressive-sounding buzzwords, but they are no more effective and no less irrational than what shamans are selling in the jungles and back alleys of the developing world. –Guy P.
