In 1847, Ignaz Semmelweis suggested doctors wash their hands before surgery. He thought it might prevent deaths. He was mocked and driven out of medicine.
Ten years later, Louis Pasteur proposed, tentatively and controversially, that microorganisms might be responsible for contagious disease. The idea was debated for over 20 years, and didn’t become accepted science until 1881.
And even small wounds were potentially fatal until 1928, when Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin.
Less than 100 years. That’s how quickly we moved from Semmelweis to Fleming, from mocking hand-washing to curing disease.
Remember that next time someone mocks energy healing.
In 100 years, once we understand how energy interacts with atoms and cells, what life-saving technology will we create?
