Germ theory says that there is nothing you can do to get over sickness except take symptom suppressors and “anti-biotics”. Acknowledges that detoxification and being in good health help prevent being sick.
Terrain theory actively promotes detoxification and being in good health to avoid getting sick and to actually get over it more quickly. Doesn’t require pharmaceuticals unless you allow your state to fall to a point where you need them as an emergency.
If terrain theory is wrong, you can always fall back on germ theory in a pinch. If it’s right and ignored, you may trap poisons in your body until finally generating a serious illness. Again, germ theory acknowledges terrain theory as being correct, but then doesn’t do anything about it.
There is no risk in adopting terrain theory. The only cost is having to learn to pay attention and expend effort to actively manage yourself instead of watching Oprah Reruns from 1994.
Terrain theory is also much more closely aligned to the Bible, while germ theory is warned about by the Bible, in Revelation.
Whoops.
This same argument structure can be used to promote accepting salvation, imo.
“If I’m wrong, oh well. If you’re wrong, you’re in for a very bad time.”
