WE mothers are not the crème de la crème of society. WE did not go to medical school. WE are mere mothers, who can’t possibly understand all medical science. And WE know this, because they infer so, in their medical articles about us. And in lay-press articles, we hear patronising messages such as vaccines being just like “hard hats”, “seat belts” and “steel-capped boots”. Strange. NONE of those things go ‘into’ a body. Neither do they have potential to train-wreck the immune system in a finely tuned biological-wonder. Continue Reading

Part 1 of 4 Offiteerers’ remorse
At a recent annual provaccine conference, it is reported that delegates expressed remorse at “strong arm” tactics. Could it be that the MenZB vaccination campaign, and the latest Gardasil efforts, have seriously backfired in their faces? People are sick of being emotionally blackmailed with drama-queen DVD’s about “How you will die if you don’t” or “Vaccination is the right thing to do, because everyone else does it.” And “You are irresponsible if you don’t!” Continue Reading

Unskeptical skeptics
Over the last few years, there has been an unprecedented attack on anything loosely described as “alternative” medicine, by those who call themselves skeptics. Continue Reading
Polypill and indulgences
Did you see this gem of a programme?. The worried well are killing themselves by shelling out lots of money on vitamins. Vitamins cause more deaths than second hand smoking. Never mind that the data is pure bunk. What did you think? Scared witless now? The “truth” of this matter couldn’t be funnier. Or sicker, depending on what meaning you put to the term “sick joke”. Continue Reading
More indulgences
Medicine has it’s own share of “indulgences” too, which most people don’t think about. Wouldn’t you think that modern medicine in all it’s TV swept up glory could have found a “cure” for the common cold by 2009? After all, it “knows” so much. It knows that a cure for a cold would make redundant billions of dollars in sales for the useless over the counter drugs alleged to ease the agony of a cold. Why do we hear, even today, that BECAUSE pharmaceutical medicine says it has no cures for measles, whooping cough, chickenpox, polio, Hepatitis B etc, that vaccines are the answer. A cure for any disease, would negate vaccines injected into every body on earth. When it comes to vaccines, wouldn’t you think that the medical profession, in 2009, could come up with something better than animal cells, toxic chemicals, untested adjuvants, and denatured bacteria, or viruses passaged through human amnion, dog kidney cells and a variety of other animal substrates? Why would you do that, when you can make yet another industry off the miseries from vaccines, while at the same time, cultivating the belief that these miseries have nothing at all to do with the vaccine?

Indulgences
History Buffs will know all about “indulgences”. To put it colloquially, this is where the Roman Catholic church said, “if you don’t give us money to pray for your dead relatives they will languish in purgatory for long periods before they get to Heaven’s gate.” I see, that the Roman Catholic church is revitalizing the “indulgences” doctrine.
