家园 Some thoughts

This is my first post here. Just provide some thoughts that may be useful for you.

难道老祖宗的东西就不能被质疑?被质疑了就要拿出证据来,可证据在哪里?这和他们是不是傻子无关,和他们的认知水平有关。哥白尼提出地动学说以前的欧洲人都是傻子么?

判断标准是实践,这点很好。不过,请中医的人讲一下,经络在哪里,三焦又在哪里,心主神明怎么回事。气滞而痛的疝气是怎么回事。

Science itself is not absolute. It is often that some scientific conclusions turned out to be wrong, or at least need to be corrected. Therefore, if you cannot understand traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), either TCM does not make sense or you are not ready to understand it, or both.

I probably can ask you similar things like you did, "so we cannot question scientific studies?" No offense. As you said, 科学精神中的基本一点是质疑. It does not isolate science from other approaches for understanding the universe. I would say personal experience is important for us, probably complementary to science because science has its own limitations.

I have my own opinions about those questions you asked. Most of them cannot be explained by autopsy, which is the basis of the modern medicine. But if you think only what you see is true, then you cannot understand it. Remember that what the human eye can see is within a very narrow band of electromagnetic waves. Lots of things we do not know.

好的不难为你,请老老实实的把各种中医药的临床有效性的证据拿出来。机理,毒性,有效性,适应症等等等等。说白了,这也是我想让中医去做的。这也是所谓的验药。

I agree that we should do some things to test herbal medicine. If you read some TCM books, you probably know that herbal medicine does have theories. Those theories helped people recognize and prepare herbal medicines. It is difficult to perform randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to test those medicines due to limitations of the RCT methodology. We probably need to figure out a better way to show the effectiveness of herbal medicine scientifically. When that day comes, TCM can talk to modern medicine directly.

By the way, 机理,毒性,有效性,适应症等等等等 for most medicines are not very clear to me, too. Herbal medicines probably are better because we have experience using them in a much longer term. What we need to do is to summarize our experience in past years and use them smartly nowadays.
