Hi everybody

Patch Adams is a person who polarises - indeed.
But if you can say something is, that he is unique,

No, he isn't. There are plenty of people who have created a fictitious idiotic persona for Robin Williams to portray on film, one who thinks he's helping, but really isn't. Even ones who have inadverdently caused the death of innocents! He's not even unique on that account, that worthless faggot.

he is real

So was the Hillside Strangler, both of them. Does that make the Hillside Strangler twice as cool as Patch - that is, Hunter Adams? (Well, actually it does, but for other reasons)

and he lives what he is talking about.

Ha ha, man that's rich. Do you really think Patch puts on his clownshoes and tweaks his rubber nose when his alcoholic liver acts up?

Oh wait, I get you now. He is a lie, and thus he lives one as well. Check.

Show me

Well, how can someone say, he hates Patch?

It goes a little something....LIKE THIS:

I FUCKING HATE PATCH ADAMS. HE IS A LIAR, A CON ARTIST, A MURDERER BY PROXY AND WORST OF ALL, COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY UNFUNNY. HE CLAIMS TO HEAL THROUGH LAUGHTER AND ALTHOUGH I HAVEN'T ACTUALLY CHECKED THE STATISTICS ON THE HEALING POWER OF COURTESY LAUGHS FOR A BROKEN-DOWN SELF-ABSORBED BOOZEMONKEY, I AM ASSUMING THEY ARE QUITE LOW.

I had the positive experience to get to know Patch personally.

As opposed to the experience the late Carin Fischer got, obviously.

And there is only one message to post:

"Open your heart and you will understand"

When your heart is not open to new ways of unerstanding, looking at a situation, a tradition, a profession, then you wont see the mistakes, the problems and you will never see the chances. It is a matter of your inner readyness to watch things differently - which is, as a matter of fact, one of the most important things for a medical doctor.

That and to hopefully not get successfully sued ever. Anyway, I like how you inadverdently made my point for me: Patch Adams ia a licensed, practicing MD. Which means, you know, he shut the fuck up and did all the stuff he had to to become an MD. Why? I hated the practice of modern medicine, what it does to everyone involved in it, what it did to me. So I left. He didn't. Why? So empty-headed easily-led clods like you will greedily swallow the shit he's been shoveling for decades now from his idiotic stand-alone mental wards, now moved off US soil, where the rules are more lax and the people even more gullible, to make an easy, comfortable living off the saps who pay for his appearances and bullshit medical care. I mean, if he wasn't an MD, nobody would lsiten to him talk about how bad MDs are. God it's...it's almost genius.

Then he puts on a spinning bowtie and twiddles his mustache and the facade of intelligence dies like so many wayward blond med students :(

The way of patch is maybe not your way. Shouldn't be, of course. Patch teaches us how to solve mental problems in another way or shows at least that there are other ways that could be used to treat patients too. And this is extremely important in a time, where about 70-80 % of illness has a psychosomatic background.

Even the romans about 2000 years ago said - mens sana in corpore sano - which shows us the direct connection between body and spirit or psyche.

Even the Chinese saw the close connection between illness and mental status. More than 80% of Acupuncture points do have a direct impact on the human psyche. Even treating inner organs by herbal medicine has a direct impact on psychic or mental status.

... So maybe Patch can't be so wrong...

Yeah man, that stuff is great. TOO BAD PATCH ISN'T DOING ANY OF IT. I SEEM TO HAVE MISSED THE ACUPUNCTURE THERAPY AND PSYCHOMOSOMATIC TREATMENT MODALITIES IN ALL THE BALLON ANIMAL CRAFTING I GUESS.
