Subj : "I hate the Lefties, To : Jeff Thiele From : Lee Lofaso Date : Mon Aug 22 2022 13:45:57 Hello Jeff, >>> We don't allow people to make unproven claims when selling herbal JT> concoc >>> and the like; why should we allow it for other items, including JT> belief >>> systems? MP>> I would assume because taking unproven herbal concoctions can make JT> you MP>> sick while just hearing someone pray would not. JT> Making one sick is the direct damage they do; Statin drugs are overprescribed by doctors not just in this country, but throughout the world, based on a hypothesis (an unproven thought). None of the claims have been verified as fact, even though the claim was made in the late 1940s. Yet it is known that millions of people have been made sick by having taken those drugs, and many have died prematurely and unnecessarily as a result. JT> the indirect damage is in convincing people that they work when they do not, Doctors are prescribing statin drugs to healthy people, and then convincing those people they work when they do not, knowing full well that those drugs are making them sick. JT> causing sick people to rely on them instead of seeking treatment that JT> actually works. Almost all of the people being prescribed statin drugs are not sick, but are after they have been taking those drugs for a while. So what treatment would you suggest for those people are sick as a result of having taken those statin drugs? Their doctor would tell them to keep taking them - until the day they die. JT> There have been many documented cases of people (or, sadly, parents) JT> believing so strongly in divine intervention that they refuse to seek JT> medical assistance for themselves Divine intervention for those who have no other hope might be their only hope (and salvation). JT> or those for whom they are responsible. Jehovah Witnesses do not believe in blood transfusions. And refuse to allow health professionals to give them blood. Even if they need it in order to survive. As a result of their belief, artificial blood has been created by science so that it can be used in cases where real blood cannot. So who is to say religious folks are to blame for unnecessary deaths? For Life, Lee -- The people! Unite! Will never be defeated! --- MesNews/1.08.05.00-gb * Origin: news://eljaco.se:4119 (2:203/2) .
