Seriously.

Abraham Linclon once said that people who advocate slavery should have it tried on them.

I say the same thing about the eugenics crowd.  They think they are God and they have the right to decide who should live and who should die.  If they say that the homeless or anyone should be put down, the eugenicist should have it done to them, first.

From the comments:

Wow…I’m finding more and more unethical and immoral goings on surrounding the drug Lupron (or in my case, Synarel, the aerosol version of Lupron).

A documentary, Eggsploitation, and how young women are being greatly harmed by Big Pharma, and greedy opportunists:

Unfortunately, I can’t afford the fee for the documentary, but the trailer alone was enough to bring tears to my eyes.  The opportunists, (or should I say predators?)  prey on the helpful nature of most women and draw them in with ads manipulating them into giving up their own fertility to help a couple who is not.

Of course, they purposely omit the very real side effects of Lupron/Synarel and how the young women will likely suffer chronic illness or even death.  One of the reports I posted before was of a mother speaking about her young daughter who died after Lupron injections.

I don’t know if the producer touches on the elephant in the room — WHY are all these couples infertile??

…because we know why there is such an epidemic of infertility — Rachel Carson told us this in Silent Spring.  All of the toxins and chemicals that mimic estrogen or other hormones are greatly impacting our own ability to reproduce.  But hey, we and the farmers gotta put that poison on the soil and spray those bugs so that our food and lawns look pretty.

And now we’re paying for it.

….just in case you’re thinking that I and the other lady are just two anomalies (and believe me, you will hear that from the calcified medical establishment and Big Pharma)…here are more stories of women being devastated by a legal drug prescribed according to manufacturer’s guidelines.  And these ladies are not even counted when they start fudging the numbers on the devastating effects of pharmaceutical drugs.

I found this stirring piece of history of the Civil Rights Movement and the Presbyterian ministers who joined the fight to get the Civil Rights Act passed.  Some are now trying to pretend that whites did not participate in this struggle, or that it was meaningless…and I knew that was not true.

In this file is an eerie incident of a twenty-something Presbyterian minister being run over by a bulldozer…much like Rachel Corrie.  

These ministers did what Jesus commanded us to do.  And they did not necessarily have support of everyone, as you will see in the piece.  I had been doing some research trying to remember my “roots”, and noted that the first big break within the Presbyterian Church was during the Civil War.  It divided the members who were pro-Union against those who were Pro-Slavery.

The church reunited later, however, but again, a big division came again circa 1967, when more evangelical churches left the national (PC) USA…I wondered why because the document did not elaborate.  So…now reading this document, I understand it was probably related to the Civil Rights movement.  Those churches that thought “separate but equal” was quite all right were leaving PC USA because of the national churches’ support of Civil Rights as something that Jesus would do.

...involves taking time to think.  Sounds silly, I know.  But critical thinking means not hurrying to judgment nor conclusions.  It means considering all sides.  It means letting the thought(s) roll around in your head for awhile instead of making snap decisions.

Ralph Nader makes another argument — that of morality.  Instant gratification instead of patience…and destroying the ability to defer one’s own needs to allow for others.

And community.

Pretty soon, people won’t have to go to stores; they’ll just order everything online and never see any other shoppers or have chance meetings with friends and neighbors. Let’s hear the applause from those people who haven’t thought through these “improvements” and the resulting destruction of communities.

Yes, I’ve seen this, too.  It is especially noticeable with the destruction of public schools.  They are destroying neighborhoods by closing schools and busing children to schools halfway across town so they spend two hours a day on a bus.

They are trying their best to do that here, even though many small schools serve large rural areas. They are trying to consolidate rural schools so that kids would have to be bused or their parents drive twenty miles to school.

In the nineteen-fifties, there were three national television networks. Now, there are hundreds of cable channels and over-the-air TV stations, not to mention the avalanche of internet-based programs and diversions.

You know, this gives the illusion that there is more diversity, but in reality, the media is concentrated into the hands of a few.

When I started my college career, I began counting the number of seconds on a screen before the shot changed.  It was six seconds.  Now I think it’s down to two.  And some ads are using flash in such a way that it’s almost like they want to give people seizures.

A commenter brought up the birth analogy — first, I think mothers should be giving birth at home; secondly, they are trying to speed up births, as well.  That was the point of giving me Pitocin — a harmful drug that can cause seizures.  Not only that, it can cause terrible distress and even brain damage by interfering with blood flow from the mother to baby during labor.  A mother is supposed to have a pillow under her hips, and her head elevated to prevent this.  Neither of these practices were followed when I was given Pitocin.  Yeah, so I’m not sold that hospital births are superior to home births because frankly, I don’t think doctors give a sh*t about infant and mother safety.  Of the developed nations, we have one of the highest infant mortality rates!

We’ve been brainwashed into thinking faster is better, smarter, “progress”…not the truth.
