Here are some of the few facts
1. Conventional medicine is based on alleviation of symptoms. Once cured, the disease comes back after some time, this time with much greater intensity. Homeopathy medicine treats the root cause of the disease. You have a long lasting to permanent cure.
2. Conventional medicine uses the human body as a passive battlefield usually trashed in the process by drug and radiation. Homeopathy medicine often avoids surgery.
3. Antibiotics kill bad as well as healthy bacteria. This result in weakening of immune system. Homeopathic medicines strengthen the immune system by building resistance to sickness. They do not disturb or hamper digestive system.
4. Most patients of conventional medicine tend to have been over-medicated, repeated frequently and for long term, making them dependent/addictive, resulting in side effects. Homeopathy medicines used 200 yrs back are used even today because of their efficacy.
5. Conventional physicians take only physical symptoms of the patient. The emotions and mental state of the patient is not taken into account. Homeopathy is based on the philosophy that the body, mind and emotions are not really separate and distinct, but are integrated.
6. There is no or little preventive medicines in conventional system. The cure starts only when you get diseased. Homeopathy allows avoiding diseases before they start by removing the biological tendency to develop the disease
I have given you some food for thought. Now think and decide for yourself which one is actually a modern medicine
The six points you put forward suggest you were actually trying to offer your opinion on which is a more effective type of medicine .
Your claims that homeopathy is more effective than conventional medicine, however, are quite unconvincing. All six of them.
Had you pointed out that fear of a malpractice suit probably plays a role in the way modern medicine is practised in the US, I might have agreed with you.
It does make me wonder, though. Can homeopaths in the US be sued for malpractice?
The health care practices varies from country to country. Homeopath physicians like conventional physicians can be sued for malpractice in India. I am not aware of US laws . As far as people demand something, governments are obliged to provide.

"1. Conventional medicine is based on alleviation of symptoms. Once cured, the disease comes back after some time, this time with much greater intensity. Homeopathy medicine treats the root cause of the disease. You have a long lasting to permanent cure"
Can you show any real evidence to back this up?
"2. Conventional medicine uses the human body as a passive battlefield usually trashed in the process by drug and radiation. Homeopathy medicine often avoids surgery."
Homeopathy is nothing but expensive water or sugar pills.. you are not doing anything to the body when you apply a homeopathic "remedy". Further you betray a complete ignorance about the nature and purpose of modern medicines if you think that it treats the body as somehow a "passive battlefield".
"3. Antibiotics kill bad as well as healthy bacteria. This result in weakening of immune system. Homeopathic medicines strengthen the immune system by building resistance to sickness. They do not disturb or hamper digestive system. "
That is just plain crazy.. and dangerous crazy to boot! Are you seriously advocating the abandonment of antibiotics?
"4. Most patients of conventional medicine tend to have been over-medicated, repeated frequently and for long term, making them dependent/addictive, resulting in side effects. Homeopathy medicines used 200 yrs back are used even today because of their efficacy. "
[Citation Needed] on that first part.. do you have actual numbers to back that up?
Further homeopathic "medicines" have absolutely no basis in reality.. and are based on concepts that were discredited with the advent of germ theory.. they have NO proven effectiveness, none. nada.. nichts.. zilch..
"5. Conventional physicians take only physical symptoms of the patient. The emotions and mental state of the patient is not taken into account. Homeopathy is based on the philosophy that the body, mind and emotions are not really separate and distinct, but are integrated."
Again, not even remotely close.. plus no matter how homeopathy views the body the medications are still absolutely nothing more then water.
"6. There is no or little preventive medicines in conventional system. The cure starts only when you get diseased. Homeopathy allows avoiding diseases before they start by removing the biological tendency to develop the disease"
and another big [Citation Needed] on this one.. there are many aspects of modern medicine that are preventative in nature, such as dietary guidelines. Further.. homeopathy, being nothing more then water, does nothing to the body beyond what you get from tap water .
"I have given you some food for thought. Now think and decide for yourself which one is actually a modern medicine"
Actual medicine is modern medicine.. you are a snake- oil saleswoman, a con artist, a deceiver.. you are taking money from people who need real medical advice , preying on the sick like a vulture.

Some interesting information on homeopathy:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeopathy
Pure quackery. Of course the same could be said for much that passes for modern medicine , but at least some effort there is made to eliminate the placebo effect, rather than being placebo based.
I am not advocating abandonment of anti-biotics but calling for use of pro-biotics
Preventive Medicine: Conventional medicines counter the effects of pathological tendencies of the body, but do not change the tendencies themselves. Homeopathy does so. Moreover there are dietary guidelines to be followed in Homeopathy too

"I am not advocating abandonment of anti-biotics but calling for use of pro-biotics"
How so? You are advocating the use of "homeopathic medicines" which are nothing more then water / sugar..
" Homeopathy does so"
Actually it doesn't.. it is just water.
Homeopathy medicine has a probiotic by the name 'Lactic Acid'. Potentised lactic acid to ease off the side effects of anti-biotics. More details are at http://abchomeopathy.com/r.php /Lact-ac

"Potentised lactic acid to ease off the side effects of anti-biotics."
Exactly! You are offering water , with no other qualities then what I can get from the tap here. Potentisation has no foundation in reality.. all you end up with is a vial (or pill) that contains none of the original substance.
