H. Henrietta Stockel Quotes

Imagine Looking Back From A Vantage Point Of One Thousand Years In The Future, Retrospectively Evaluating Our Current, "sophisticated" Medical And Scientific Procedures. One Might See Today's Physician Waving Laser Beams Over A Patient's Body As A Primitive, Archaic, And Incomprehensible Healing Technique, Just As From Some Perspectives A Medicine Woman Waving Eagle Feathers, Or A Curandera Holding A Crucifix Over A Patient, Is Viewed By Some As Archaic. The Similarities Are Striking And Compelling. Future Generations May Lose Touch With The Major Assumptions Underpinning Contemporary Western Medicine, Just As Many Of Us Have Now Lost Touch With The Assumptions Integral To Older Cultures That Continue To Practice The Ancient Healing Ways. Forgetting The Assumptions On Which A Procedure Is Based May Make The Procedure Incomprehensible, But It Does Not Make It Invalid.
