A professional art is a means to achieve a goal. A professional philosophy is an attempt to explain why the goal should be reached. The dynamic, largely neuronal, process, we call consciousness.

Terms such as adjustment, manipulation, nutrition, physiologic therapeutics, resistance to disease, exercise, and innate are concepts. The result is an attempt at dogmatism, fanaticism, and the subjugation of reason and creativity. Analysis of the rationale of radical fringes in any group readily underscores this point. The attempt to clone physicians is on the rise. In addition, such cloning has for decades been reinforced in chiropractic as a principle by a minority who demand that their personal interpretation of the philosophy of B. J. Palmer of the 1920s be followed to the letter in the year 2000 despite what the founder of chiropractic, D. D. Palmer, postulated or what current science has established as the rationale of chiropractic.
