Bear with me, the internet is about to explode. It has been said that if enough people believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster, then, it must exist, and must be true. Or, perhaps, if you are told that a certain type of cancer is now curable by a new-fangled treatment, do you believe it? What is the difference in between these theses? Personally, I can visualize the Flying Spaghetti Monster. However, I have never seen cancer. Now, I've never met an oncologist, but I have been predisposed to believe whatever they might say. Why is this? Well, for one, there is the fact that I've been taught by my parents and the rest of society that learned people are to be trusted. This situation is very like the situation in Spain during the Inquisition. Peasants were told their entire lives to simply follow the standard of respect of the day, which was to follow the religious leader's authority unquestioningly. Much like we follow the orders of a doctor unerringly. The priest was given authority by God. Medical science is given authority by society. Also, believing in medical science does not behoove a response. Christianity does. This makes those who are confronted with Christianity to feel uncomfortable, because few beliefs require such a response. In summary: if you don't trust a priest, think about why you trust a TV news anchor. I can guarantee the guy on "Live at 5" has less experience. |
Do you have cancer? If so i will email some things to help Ph your body and raise oxygen so you may kill it.
Also keep in mind if you are on chemo, you need to take astralagus root, as this increases your white blood cell count in between chemo, ands heakl faster. The prescribed white blood cell has side effects, doctors prescribe it because they get kick backs
