“SHE FELL FROM A STAR

                “Come out, come out, wherever you are and meet the young lady who fell from a star … “–Glinda sings to the Munchkins in ‘The Wizard of Oz’

                False information, less diplomatically stated, could be called lies. Sometimes lies are unintentional. Sometimes lies are intentional. Regardless, false is false, and we need to inspect all the information we receive to ensure that it is not false.

               One way to know if information is false is to determine whether the information helps us achieve a workable solution or does it lead toward continued mystery.

               Such scrutiny may seem obvious, but few people critically examine information they receive. Whether the information has to do with the meaning of life or how to bake a better chocolate chip cookie, it is wise to put the information to the test before using it to develop any theories or before taking action based upon it.

  
             Logically, before we go skipping down the Yellow Brick Road into the unknown, a few simple precautions might prove useful.

               Precaution 1: Does the information contain actual statistics or documented evidence or is it just a broad, sweeping generalized statement?

               The morning newspaper headlines have propagandized a recent political effort to take guns away from the citizens with broad, general statements like: “Street gangs are sweeping the country! The youth of America are all killing each other with illegal handguns!”

               Of course, no violent deaths are acceptable. But, when was the last time you personally observed a street gang shoot-out? Check out the facts: In 1990 there were 971 black youths and 942 white youths under the age of 18 who were victims of homicide in the United States. Hardly an epidemic compared to a total of 9,923 total people killed with handguns in the same year.

               By contrast, 12,400 people were killed by accidental falls. So, why don’t the newspapers have headlines about “The Terrible Tragedy of Gravity”?

               More than 28,642 people committed suicide in 1990 and 69,225 died of pneumonia or flu. Cigarette smoking was a major killer with 78,380 deaths from emphysema. Meanwhile, in a real, honest-to-god-epidemic, 476,927 people died of cancer! How much effort is being made by the propaganda machines of big government to prevent smoking which is one of the principle causes of cancer?

               False information is also spread simply by failing to include all of the correct information or including too much information.

               Precaution 2: Does the information help your survival? Is it destructive? Is it just plain upsetting?

               Asking the news media to report “the truth” is like asking a fly crawling on a cow pie for an accurate description of the cow. The kind of information we receive from the morning news on television or in newspapers or ‘Time’ magazine is, factually, very often highly spin-doctored, altered and misinterpreted. The so-called “news” is nothing more than a very tiny slice of the most shocking, disastrous, upsetting, tragic, gruesome, inhumane events which these sources painstakingly cut from the relatively large and lovely pie of life. This “news” is gathered from isolated sources, at great expense and selectively edited using the most sensationally colored prose imaginable. Yet the mainstream media news neglect to report the fact that billions of people and billions of other life forms on this planet are enjoying happy lives–no thanks to them! 

               Does reading or hearing about every single psychopathic rape/murder/theft/mayhem/disaster that occurs anywhere on the entire planet really improve the quality of your life or happiness? Or is this information you can more happily live without?”

DO FLIES CAUSE GARBAGE?

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

Louis Pasteur, the eminent French chemist who invented pasteurization, the process of heating milk and foods to kill bacteria, was convinced that germs cause disease. In his early experiments with bacteria he attempted to grow bacterial cultures on fresh fruit–without success. However, he did succeed in getting bacteria to grow in cooked soup.

A contemporary of Pasteur was a man named Antoine Beauchamps. Beauchamps questioned the Pasteur theory that germs cause disease, observing that flies do not cause garbage. Rather, that garbage attracts the flies. Further, Beauchamps asserted that if you kill the flies, the flies will return as long as the garbage remains. So it is with the human body.

Two conditions must be present for an infection to occur in the body:

1/ The body must be weakened by something OTHER THAN the bacteria. This is obvious in that bacteria like streptococcus, tuberculosis, pneumonia, etc, are present all around us and throughout our bodies, and yet we are not always sick.

2/ There must be “food” for the bacteria to feed on in the body.

Healthy cell tissue, like the fresh fruit in Louis Pasteur’s experiment, offers the bacteria nothing to feed on. All bacteria are scavengers. Like flies, bacteria eat ONLY dead, toxic, rotting or decayed tissue. Virus, bacteria, fungus, etc, attack the body only AFTER the body has become weakened by accumulated “garbage”.

For example, colds and fevers are NOT caused by germs. These are symptoms of the body’s effort to cleanse the toxins from the body.

BACTERIA FEED ON BODIES WHICH ARE ALREADY WEAKENED BY TOO MANY TOXINS WHICH CAUSE THE BODY TO DECAY.

It follows that the prevention and cure of disease is not just to “kill the flies”– we must clean up and get rid of the garbage in the body upon which bacteria feed! When the body is clean, the body’s natural defense against disease and bacteria (the Immune System) is strong enough to defend it from illness.

In epitaph to Louis Pasteur, at the time of his death, he admitted that he had been wrong about his “germ theory” of disease.
