Yes, but would you act the same way if they had already come to you, were
already part of a homeopathic group (or more acurately a discussion group on
homeopathy) and ignore things that were blatantly in opposition to homeopathy?
It's a bit different when a person comes to a discussion group about a topic,
posts things in opposition to the philosophy and gets questioned on it.
I don't go around irl, telling people that what they are doing is not
unschooling, they wouldn't care. Not even other homeschoolers.
But if they willingly enter into a discussion on the topic, I feel I then
have the right to give my honest opinion and question things in direct
conflict.
