Hi Peter - I really hope you don't mind but, because I was getting a little lost among the various titles and subtitles, I took the liberty of moving the traditional material (yours and mine) to a sidebox under the main entry title ("Buddhism and intellectualism"). I didn't think you would mind -- very much hope you don't -- but I've never actually moved another person's material on a talk page, so I would deeply regret it if my doing so offends you in any way. If so, please revert or let me know and I will be happy to do so. I wish you the best, ] (]) 18:22, 2 September 2007 (UTC) |

:Hi Peter - sorry for my lack of clarity. If you go to ] and scroll up several inches, you'll see it on the right one-third of the page, with the top-most header being "A Cup of Tea." I placed it there based on timestamps -- you had a text entry of 11:26, 31 August 2007 (UTC) and then the Zen account was timestamped 11:30, 31 August 2007 (UTC), so I thought it appropriate to put them beside each other. Again, I hope this is okay. If not, feel free to change it (of course) or let me know if you'd like me to do so. Thanks again. Best wishes, ] (]) 01:32, 3 September 2007 (UTC) |

:Better yet, just go here: ]. I've reinserted the sectional header tags to the headings for our traditional material. (I had originally removed them because I thought they were interfering with the sidebox's table tags, but, on second thought, I realize I was wrong.) I've made "A Cup of Tea" a ''sub''section (that is, used "===" instead of "==") to signify that it is associated with the overall "Buddhism and intellectualism" thread; however, again, if this is against your intention or best reflection, please please please feel free to revert/undo/re-do any or all of it or instruct me to do so.

::Hi Peter, thanks for your kind and interesting note. FWIW, in terms of myself, like most I guess I started reading about Buddhism in a non-discriminating manner, especially enjoying the writing of Philip Kapleau, Robert Aiken, Joseph Goldstein, Jack Kornfield, Trunga Rinpoche, Lama Surya Das, D.T. Suzuki and Thich Nhat Hanh (to name some of those who immediately come to mind). My practice was Zen initially primarily becuase I found Kapleau's instructions in the Three Pillars of Zen to resonate most for me. I then occasionally participated in a Zen group in my area. Years later I moved and shopped around in my new location with an institutionalized Zen group, an informal vipassana/New Age group, an Order of Interbeing group, a Lama Surya Das group (with whom my wife is still affiliated), and finally settled down with a vipassana/Theravada group, while attending occasional retreats primarily by self-identified Theravadins (e.g., most memorably, a trip to Bhante G.'s Bhavana Society). So, for me, I guess it's primarily been a combination of geography, personality and access to resources (e.g., I find the Theravada canon to be so much more cohesive and more readily accessed from the Internet). Blah, blah, blah me. LOL. Thanks for all your excellent work -- both scholarly and interpersonally. With metta, ] (]) 18:12, 3 September 2007 (UTC) |

*Hallo dear Peter. Thanks for your nice message. Yes, the Buddhism article is currently undergoing a reincarnation, it seems! I personally thought the earlier version (the one before Peter J. made massive changes) was pretty interesting and informative, given some subtractions and deletions and tweakings here and there, but I also think Peter J's version is a good basis for further work. The problem is that not too many editors are actively involved at the moment (and I myself will be very busy over the coming few days). I am interested to know, Peter, what you would like to see added to the entry - how you would like to see its focus or tone shifted, perhaps, or what extra material could be added, or whether we should not be so "nit-picking"? I am not being contrary here: I just am genuinely interested to see how you think we could improve things. Myself, I personally don't like calling Mahayana Buddhism "East Asian Buddhism" - but that discussion has been had and my side lost out! What do you feel about that and similar matters? Anyway, for what it's worth, I myself am happy to work with what Peter J. has provided. But perhaps you would prefer to revert back to the earlier version?? For me, both versions are acceptable, given improvements here and there. Thanks again for contacting me, Peter. I look forward to hearing more of your own views. Best regards. From Tony. ] 10:42, 22 September 2007 (UTC) |

Hello editor, you can refer to ] for information on userboxes. You can also refer to ] and ] (I have created these userboxes), for getting some information on how to create, manipulate and control the data in a userbox. You need to learn some basic (very basic) HTML to work in wikipedia, I think. If you think I am helpful, you can always ask me for help. I am there to help you out. |

Hi Peter! The article is indeed completely messed up by anti-homeopathic sentiments which, although valid and need to be documented, have taken over the article and dominate. They give a seeker the wrong information due to ]. How to fix it? Well, I think the ] is a good start. I would work there to gain consensus with a group of uninvolved editors, and as I have not edited the article, and know a bit about the topic, that is what I think I should do. You could also start another page on your sandbox (if you do, let me know and all the others who want to contribute positively) and the article can be re-written and presented to the good reviewers as an alternative. All the best! ] 00:42, 3 October 2007 (UTC) |

:I figure I'll chime in here as well to express my appreciation for your help in understanding Hahnemann's process.

Hi Peter: |

I didn't want to put this on the homeopathy talk page. |
|

|
|
We were told an hour or two ago that the homeopathy article was back to GA status. We were just having an argument to celebrate. ;o) |
|
|
|
|

Thank you for your input on that page. It is very difficult for Whig. He tries to maintain a neutral POV. Most other people regularly involved have made it known one way or another that they are anti-homeopathy. Because of this, any time the discussion hinges on POV, Whig is facing several others, most or all of whom are arguing against him. However, they are not necessarily arguing the same points. This makes it more difficult, confusing, and frustrating. |

To me, it is unbelievable that someone could talk about "circular reasoning, and lack of knowledge about basic science" AND then claim it was NOT a personal attack. |

You commented "doctrine is way more POV than 'theory and method'", yet the word is direct from the title of Devrient's translation, readable at {{OL|6983421M}}. In contrast, your calling it a "]" implies that there is scientific evidence supporting the ideas, which is simply not the case. ] at the time had some traces of plausibility, but that was long ago. ] <small>]</small> 18:26, 29 May 2014 (UTC) |

::While I don't have access at the moment to every translation, Devrient's certainly was not the only one to use the term. The French version of the 4th and 5th editions by Antoine-Jacques Louis Jourdan was ''Exposition de la Doctrine Medicale Homoeopathique, &c." {{oclc|23407740}}, (, 1873). Jourdan's 1873 foreword reads "L'Organon de l'art de guerir est le livre classique de l'homoeopathie, le seul qui contienne une exposition complete de la novelle doctrine." |
|
|
::It also appears in the fourth American edition. |
|
|
::Other works such as under the title ''Des maladies chroniques: de leur nature spéciale et de leur traitement homoeopathique'' use the term just as proudly, appearing several times in the front matter, and in the translation of Hahnemann's preface. |
|
|
::Indeed, in an 1878 to the Illinois State Homoeopathic Medical Society, Dr. E. M. Hale went so far as to refer to "the great doctrine of homoeopathy". The term was not just used, but actively brandished by homoeopathic advocates, as a form of endorsement. |

==Methodological Naturalism Article== |
|
Hi Peter. Adam and I were discussing your article at ] earlier today when I suggested the redirect. Per your edit summary, and from reading the respective articles, I'm not sure how antireductionism differs from holism. Would you come over and talk about it? Thanks! ] 16:12, 31 October 2007 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I and a few other contributors to the Philosophical Naturalism article believe that methodological naturalism is worthy of its own page. I've therefore started a draft you are free to edit before I submit after of few weeks. |
|
(copied from ]) Thanks for YOUR POV. If this is so then why was it Adam who made the action? however, in relation to the question, AR is really a suspicion on the part of many, esp in the social sciences, but also in portions of biology, that reductionism is too simplistic for adequately describing complex systems and processes and that it innately oversimplifies and thus distorts and misleads. Especially in ecology and weather systems for example. Such folks do not believe that reductionism inherently can generate the answers it promises: it can prove to be non-insightful. Holism by contrast believes that phenomena in general are best perceived as wholes rather than via analysis of parts. I agree these are close to each other but holism is probably the broader concept and I would say they are different precisely because both terms occur in academic discourse...which kind of justifies their separate inclusion here. Also I would say the AR article is much better than the other one which is very poorly ref'd and too generalised to be of much use. It looks like a rag bag mix of all sorts of odd stuff simply thrown together. I guess you will disagree. What attracts you to fringe theories as you like to call them? and why clean them up when embryogenesis and embryology cry out to be merged but I don't see you two banging on about that. BTW I am a zoologist by training so I disagree with your view of my understanding of what science is. If you do merge them then please merge them proper rather than deleting whole swathes of stuff. OK? cheers Peter morrell |

:Just wanted to follow up and make sure I understand the difference. As I now understand it, antireductionism is a term for a <i>reaction</i> to reductionism, whereas holism indicates a philosophy of viewing systems as a whole instead of as a collection of components. Holism may or may not be a reaction to a reductionist view, but antireductionism always is. Is this correct? For what it's worth, I agree partially with your opinion on the ] article. It needs some cleanup too - there's some uncited fluff in there about ], and this is such a broad topic that it may need splitting into holism in various specific disciplines (e.g. holism in physics, holism in ecology, etc).

Not sure where you want my reply but here goes. Yes, you seem to have the broad thrust of it. Antireductionists may or may not optionally adopt a holistic approach; what they primarily see are the limitations of the hardline reductionist approach in certain situations, maybe not in all. Holists of course are also antireductionist but do take a holistic view in most if not all situations. One other point is that both take the view that the fragmentalist view science adopts to viewing phenomena (breaking the world into parts and mechanisms of parts) is limited and optional; it is seen merely as '''one''' method, rather than '''the''' method for gaining understanding about our world. Antireductionists would accept some reductionism some of the time while holists would prefer to gain knowledge through looking at wholes, not through what they regard as the 'illusory' parts. I hope this clarifies. I will try to improve the AR article further as time permits. I did promise to do that some months back but somehow it fell from view. thanks ] 17:19, 1 November 2007 (UTC) |
