Cinam.net seeks to educate Christians about fraudulent medical practices
Title
CINAM
Description
CINAM (sin ´ am) was started in 1989 out of concern about the proliferation and promotion of “alternative” practices within evangelical Christian churches.
The initial process began with researching and gathering information about iridology, “muscle testing,” herbs, and a variety of practices and products which were being enthusiastically promoted -- usually as being “from God.”
Given that truth is central to Christianity, it was surprising to see claims of special revelation and God’s endorsements. Misinformation and misrepresentation were common. Christians needed more discernment and the skepticism of the Bereans (Acts 17:11). It also became clear that there was a need for reliable objective information presented in a language and form which would make sense to the evangelical Christian community. This information had to be based on current scientific information, and include an examination of the spiritual/philosophical frame of reference and world view from which the “alternative” practices arose.
