Germ theory, true or false?

I've heard for several years that germ theory was a hoax. It was accepted and seen as an opportunity to make money. According to several articles I've read, the very scientist, Louis Pasteur, who pushed it rejected it on his death bed saying, "Bernard was right... the microbe is nothing; the terrain is everything." 

Another scientist and contemporary of Pasteur, Professor Antoine Béchamp, had rejected the germ theory in favor of his own theory of pleomorphism:

·    Acidic terrain, not germs, cause disease
·    Germs are already in the body by the billions and don't necessarily have to come from without (although that can sometimes happen)
·    Blood is not sterile but can contain many microbial forms
·    Germs are pleomorphic, i.e., they can change through many forms (Dr Gaston Naessens identified a microbe undergoing 16 different stages of  evolution)
·    Virtually all diseases are caused by acidic terrain
·    Diseases can be prevented or reversed by increasing the alkalinity of the terrain
