Salutations!

As the cost of "Sick"care skyrockets so to do the cost associated with every aspect of the sick care industry (insurance premiums, co-pays, pharmaceutical drugs, sick leave, etc.). The time to act and take care of ourselves while jealously guarding our health has come. We can no longer afford to hand over our health or our wealth to others and hope to live happy, productive lives. The goal of this blog is to wade through some of the more mundane as well as a few sensational health issues that affect us today and how to get over them.

Articles Published on Natural News



Life has been coming at me fast and furious these days which has left me little time to write articles. I have a new series in mind and I am gearing up to crank those out in addition to more rebuttals to articles I have found that make me scratch my head from their sheer gall and blatant misrepresentations.

With that being said I would like to offer a sampling of various articles I have written for Naturalnews.com. Over the years I have written about many health related matters that did not necessarily make it to the blog. When time permits please click this hyperlink to the website. It will bring you to four pages that list my articles specifically. If you see something you like and you think it would make for a pretty good blog series let me know. In the meantime, read, discuss and share until your heart is content.

Peace, light and love....always.

Medical Conspiracies - Are We the Crazy Ones Part III



Over the past 10 -15 years you may have noticed an increasing trend in branding people as conspiracy theorist simply because they were saying or asking something that had not been verified by some authoritative figure or entity. The term has become so demeaning and hurtful in nature that no one wants to be called one for fear of being seen as delusional or in need of mental evaluation. Other than outright censorship I can think of no better way to stifle ideas, discourse and critical thinking. Perhaps that is the point. What happens to a society when critical thinking or critical questioning is no longer allowed? We get media outlets, government agencies even some teachers and church officials that tell us what to think and how to think and dare us to question it. Meanwhile, we slip down the slippery slope of the type of apathy that leads to man’s inhumanity to man going unchecked and extreme environmental degradation.

In the days of Enron the company had a thought provoking slogan and philosophy. It was simple: Ask why. We all know what happened to Enron and the irony is not enough people asked ‘why’ they were able to show wildly increasing profits without having to prove those profits existed. Another irony is that the one Wall Street analyst, John Olson, was considered crazy (read conspiracy theorist, nut) for suggesting something was wrong with Enron and eventually had to “move on” for his views. Not long after that the roof fell in at Enron exonerating that nut Olson all together causing 20,000 people to be laid off and drying up almost every dime of their pension fund while top executives took home millions in pay outs (man’s inhumanity to man).




If you question 9/11 you’re a nut. If you think vaccines may lead to autism you’re a nut. If you didn't think there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq you were a nut. The problem doesn't lie in the position of the person thinking these things. The problem is the lack of substantive, thoughtful and civil discourse. There is so much vitriol and mean spirited talk and it is all to stop the thought process. Our thoughts, along with reason and a healthy emotional and spiritual disposition, are precious commodities that, when used, form the basis of a well-functioning society that is not prone to exploitation, subjugation and an apathetic spirit.  Keep thinking. Keep asking questions no matter how absurd. Transparency leads to the naked truth and it is questions that takes its clothes off.
