Not sinful, no. But if one doesn't believe in the effectiveness of herbal healing, one wouldn't expect to be in an herbalist's house of care.

[she tilts her head to one side, considering that.]

...even so, herbal medicines are very effective. If something happened to someone who did not believe in them, and someone found them who did believe, it is only natural that they would take them to an herbalist, no?

[smokeandglasses]

...okay, maybe that's a bad example.

[Instead of admitting she has a point he'll just say that.]

[jiaohua]

Do you have a better one, then?

[smokeandglasses]

...not really.

[He could explain that modern medicine is far different from the herbalists of the past, but he does not know enough about modern medicine to explain any of this. So he passes on it.]

[jiaohua]

I thought not.

[He is quiet for a moment as he looks more and more peeved before finally speaking again.]

Anyway, the point still stands: I didn't expect to end up here, and I'm likely to not be the only one.

I imagine this is making many of us question the beliefs we grew up with.

[smokeandglasses]

...yeah, I think we can all agree on that.

[she nods, falling silent - we can probably wrap this one, this week truly got away from me aaaaaa]
