The MRSA Scam (snake oil shall protect thee not from zot)

MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus)! What a crock. For decades Americans have been sold a bill of goods by the New Age movement. We have been told that we must be vaccinated, drugged, poked and prodded by snake-oil salesmen with PHDs. Now we have a movement in this country to force those of us who manifest perfect health to pay for those of you who have succumbed to the debauchery of the medical profession and their minions in the secular humanist world.
It is my view that MRSA is nothing more than another tool being used by Clintonesk type people to try to convince the rest of us that we need the government to pay for our healthcare. Well excuse me. A hand full of people contracting a disease and dying from it does not justify making the rest of us pay for the other 299,999,995 people in this country to receive free soap, medicine, doctors visits and the like. It is now almost to the point where a parent that lets his/her child play in the dirt will be guilty of child abuse, neglect or whatever other evil charge these psychopathic, paranoid-schizophrenic hypochondriacs can conjure up in an attempt to make the rest of us conform to the treatment their fears dictate.

Their fears are what is making me sick. NOT any bacteria or virus my healthy body is capable of fighting off. I learned years ago that the medical profession is nothing more than the practice of witchcraft and sorcery and those of you that turn to sorcerers rather than to God for your healing and health are now reaping what you are sowing. Stop trying to slip the responsibility for your "medical expenses" and the sorrow of the loses of your friends and families onto those of us not in bondage to your fear.

My family, friends and I do not have health insurance not because we can not afford it but because we do not need it. We do not need people giving us lessons on how to wipe our little tushies or how to wash our hands. It is common sense. If the rest of you are too stupid to practice good hygiene then that is your problem. Some of us have NOT weakened our immune systems with non-repended for sin or the countless, vaccinations, antibiotics and other drugs so many of you pay quacks to provide for you.
I believe in freedom of choice for each "individual" and I find it highly offensive that so many of you do not. As the mother that imposes her selfish will upon her innocent unborn child when she has it murdered and forcibly extracted from her womb during an abortion so to do many of you do the same to the rest of us in the sense that you are trying to force us to succumb to, and to pay for the decisions your sick and twisted fears cause you to make.
I could expound the analogy but why bother. Those of you that know what I am saying don't need any further elaboration; the rest of you wouldn't get it no matter what I post.

Point is... If you choose to pump your bodies full of the poison/potions the witches and warlocks in your communities concoct then accept the consequences for your actions or repent and turn back to God but don't for a second think that your plight is the rest of our destinies as well.

If you love your children you will keep them out of the Marxist concentration camps of liberal indoctrination known as public schools and away from their "school nurses, psychologists and fear mongering, child molesting, brain-washing instructors" and educate them yourself.

This is just my healthy, humble opinion.

Wow, that was a grade A Rant.

I, for one, am very glad that the "debauchery of the medical profession and their minions" were around not too long ago to save my 3-year-old little girl from dying of dehydration.

I am quite happy that the "sorcerers" saved my sister from acute, sudden appendicitis this past summer.

I suppose the oddball who authored the original post would blame scientists, mathematicians, and engineers for all the other evils in this world.

The irony would be that the troll would likely still visit the ER when his/her children get sick (due to lack of vaccination) and, due to lack of proper financial arrangements (health insurance), foist the cost of his idiocy upon others.

GOOD GRIEF! How I wished there had been a vaccine against whooping cough when I was a child and I not had that awful sickness....and how I wish my friends that had polio before the vaccine had had such protection..and escaped the crippling and pain.

The map showed the outbreaks along the Eastern Seaboard from Florida up to New England. Texas and Nebraska had some additional outbreaks as well.

Good hygeine. Cover wounds. Wash hands when leaving public areas. Warm, soapy water. I think that’s all we can do.

Hey! How are you doing? I just got around to reading through this thread... I see the original poster has been banned/suspended. He claimed that only 2 people have died from MRSA! 19,000 died in the U.S. in 2005 alone! It is now considered worse than AIDS, SARS or the Bird Flu as a threat.

So when can I get that Cajun dinner? LOL!

Trolls are exempt from protection.
Just remember that next time you troll.

[Darksheare]

It is also written “The healthy do not need a DOCTOR, but the sick”

[Darksheare]

Wow, you’re nuts too.

[Terriergal]

No one’s poo-pooing anyone’s grief over anything—especially a huge loss like a treasured mother!

What color is the sky in your world?

[Terriergal]

I have a significant list of folks who’ve profited greatly from Pastor Wright’s works and ministry . . . including myself. Rock throwing seems to be adding yet another potent pastor, it appears.

If it 'works' it must be true huh? Pragmatist at heart, aren't ya?

I guess I wouldn't consider Wright 'potent.' Any more than Satan is 'potent.' By default then you are throwing rocks at Tommydale and me, your fellow believers! For shame.

prag·ma·tism      /ˈprægməˌtɪzəm/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[prag-muh-tiz-uhm] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation

–noun

1.

character or conduct that emphasizes practicality.

2.

a philosophical movement or system having various forms, but generally stressing practical consequences as constituting the essential criterion in determining meaning, truth, or value. I seem to recall Hegel's though gave birth to pragmatism. http://gyral.blackshell.com/hegel/ Hegel's influence on the thought of Karl Marx can not be ignored. Marx borrowed Hegel's dialectic, dropped the idealism, threw in a healthy measure of materialism, and called himself a communist. No Marxist or materialistic historian can ignore Hegel's dialectic and his interpretation of world history. Ironically, though Hegel's thought was generally regarded as a powerful attack on materialism, his greatest student eventually became the Western world's most famous materialist. Hegel's thought had other important effects, even in America, the land where British empiricism planted its flag on firmest ground. For instance, Hegel's thought opened the path towards pragmatism, progressivism, and relativism. William James borrowed heavily from the work of the German idealists to construct an American intellectual tradition that he labelled "Pragmatism" (not to be confused with either pragmatism nor Charles Peirce's "Pragmaticism"). John Dewey began his ever-evolving philosophical career as a Hegelian, and other Progressives were especially influenced by Hegel's emphasis on the training of the mind through education. Finally, Hegel's emphasis on the individual and even the Absolute as a constantly evolving process, continually subjected to the influence of external as well as internal forces, became a starting poing for relativism. Hegel's thought was also crucial in sparking a revolution in American educational policy. The "Kindergarten Movement" and John Dewey's Democracy and Education are only two examples of the accomplishments American Hegelians made in the field of education. Thus, Hegel's influence in America has been overwhelming, although we often lose sight of his original, though admittedly peculiar, philosophy. Although students of Hegel often complain of his lengthy digressions into incomprehensiblity, his thought has played a major role in how we study history. Hegel's dialectic was a major influence behind Marx's influential brand of socialism. Without Hegel, pragmatism, progressivism, and relativism may never have become popular philosophical systems. Hegel's emphasis on the mind and the need for human interaction in order to achieve true "selfhood" led to a revolution in American educational policy. Hegel was so potent! Just...Wow!

Hegel’s though = Hegel’s thought

LOL!

[Darksheare]

I was looking at replies to the originating troll.
They’d already ailed that guy.
Ailed?
Umm.. nailed.

[stephenjohnbanker]

We do get some colorful posters here :-)

[Darksheare]

Colorful?
Yes, sparks and induced flourescence do make wonderful colors.

[stephenjohnbanker]

LMBO!

> I got to spend 8 additional days in the hospital getting twice daily an I.V. with an antibiotic so caustic that each time it was administered it would destroy the vein. It felt like battery acid eating away at me for twenty minutes twice a day. It did however save my life and for that I only hate Doctors a little.

I had a similar experience with an incision that went septic 3 weeks after a knee surgery. Was the antibiotic Flucloxacillin? Felt like gasoline being poured into your vein, even after they diluted it with saline?

I walked around with a hole in my leg the size of a golfball for nearly six months, an open wound that needed to heal from the inside-out. Lucky to have kept my leg.

(Private medicine paid for the original knee operation. Social medicine paid for the subsequent infection treatment that saved my leg — but that’s a whole different debate.)
