Abstract
In their recent article "A Gentle Ethical Defence of Homeopathy," Levy, Gadd, Kerridge, and Komesaroff use the claim that "lack of evidence is not equivalent to evidence of lack" as a component of their ethical defence of homeopathy. In response, this article argues that they cannot use this claim to shore up their ethical arguments. This is because it is false.
摘要
在他们最近的文章《顺势疗法的温和伦理辩护》中，利维、加德、克里奇和科梅萨罗夫将“缺乏证据并不等同于有证据证明不存在”这一说法作为他们对顺势疗法进行伦理辩护的一个组成部分。作为回应，本文认为他们不能用这一说法来支持他们的伦理观点。这是因为该说法是错误的。
