• Homeopathy and the Structure of Memory — a blog post by Stephen Curry

After a more general discussion of homeopathy, memory of water, and the immune system, poses the question

Why did evolution, which has always taken such a make-do attitude to developing of the faculties of living things, not choose to work with water to construct an immune system capable of remembering its enemies? Surely, given the prodigious feats of memory attributed by homeopaths to this glistening, life-giving fluid, Nature could have fashioned a watery armour to protect us from disease?

and provides the answer

This has not happened of course because memories require fixed structures and water is a liquid. In this form, it is no more capable of remembering molecules than of being sculpted.

as well as some more introductory remarks about the immune system.
