Science-Based Medicine is a reliable source used on many Wikipedia articles. There is no valid reason to remove it from this article. Psychologist Guy (talk) 17:29, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
Bruce Lipton does indeed hold anti-vax views (many videos can be found on his social media profiles and YouTube). However, the section "Anti-vaccine views" does not cite any sources that mention Lipton. All the sources in this section are off-topic because they do not specifically mention Lipton. This is a case of WP:OR. Psychologist Guy (talk) 14:19, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
All scientists have views or opinions that mainstream people who have zero knowledge or have done zero studies or examinations have conflict with. This is includes Einstein, Oppenheimer, and much of the prominent scientists of our era. Scientists of all ages have had views that which were outdated, OR, proven later to have validity. This is no reason to markedly discredit someone on an academic intentioned website such as wikipedia. Such action is cowardly and unscientific by nature and does not contribute to global understanding of the sciences. If there is something you disagree with, add to the discussion, provide counter arguments, but not remove someone's works and well-deserved research. If you disagree with his anti-vaccination views, then provide pro-vaccination arguments. This is unscientific and makes wikipedia an unreliable reference for gaining insights and information on people who may or may not be correct on matters, and that is the majority of scientists. 2600:1700:612:4D50:B83B:30AB:35B5:3E63 (talk) 19:01, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

Remove "...advocates various pseudosciences, including vaccine misinformation." Biographies of living persons policy, libelous information (such as calling someone 'pseudoscience') must be kept out of such biographies unless very well-referenced. Student2067 (talk) 20:11, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
Close-minded. The article completely discredits any of Bruce Lipton's pioneering work in epigenetics. Work he was ridiculed for... Do you see a pattern here? Perhaps what he suffers from is being ahead of his time, and people being unwilling to consider that very smart people may have views that contradict theirs and the norm. That those ideas may have validity. Attaching a label like psuedoscience is just that, a label. It's rhetoric. "Science" is a human construct like anything else and prone also to cult-like behavior. I expected better of Wikipedia. 104.175.201.138 (talk) 15:39, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
