I claim that certain views are hold by a certain group of people for reason that have to do with the actions of certain organisations.

You claim that's I'm engaging into a logical fallacy if I look at the way beliefs are formed. As humans don't form their beliefs through logic, that's besides the point. Even if you form your beliefs through logic, it's still an interesting discussion to discuss why the medical profession believes what it believes.

That fact that you are unable to make that distinction makes you unable to follow the argument I'm making.

I didn't argue in this thread that chiropractors deserve a good reputation or for that matter recommended to someone that he should go to a chiropractor. I don't think in terms of black and white but make statements that are much more nuanced.
