Since 2000, I have not trusted doctors, since I was almost killed by one. I also helplessly watched as many people I knew got hooked on opioids from their doctors' office--they were prescribed drugs more suitable for terminal cancer sufferers, after routine surgeries!‐ and they became junkies after they couldn't get their Rxs refilled anymore. So my trust and respect for the whole medical system is very low. Since Covid, I have nothing but utter contempt for these materialistic, mindless pill- pushers.

I have been an avid reader since you started this substack, and I have such respect for you. Though we've never met, I've come to trust you through your articles. Your moral clarity and ethics shine so brightly that it makes me feel like I could trust a doctor again-- if they were just like you.

Thank you for being such a great example and for the selfless way that you share your heart, your knowledge and your unique perspective with such a wide audience. You could have kept your thoughts to yourself, or just a select few, but you didn't, and I'm grateful. I'm very proud to recommend your work and I'm very happy to see that you are now receiving the wide- spread recognition that you deserve (I read your guest article on Mercola this morning. Wonderful, as always). Your honest voice should be amplified to counteract the myriad of lies and propaganda.

I wish that I had a doctor like you! You give me hope.

Thank you for your service.

"So much information is available now we are constantly bombarded with, that it has exceeded the processing capacity of the human mind. That is making a lot of people destabilize inside, and as the information glut increases, this problem will continue to worsen."

-----------

I think the problem isn't information overload, it's the fact that our entire "public health" industry is knowingly lying to our faces. Information is helpful when it confirms reality -- when information describes a lie, people have problems because what they hear doesn't match up with their experience.

Like when Biden tells people the economy is awesome, they just don't appreciate what he's been doing for them.

This gets even further complicated when you add in politics and the ridiculous desire to support lying politicians in order to avoid admitting you were wrong about masks, distancing, school closures, lockdowns, vaccines..........basically everything covid.

As a Christian, Jesus never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and forever (Hebrews 13:8). What the Word of God said 2,000 years ago is still relevant today. What was sin 2,000 years ago is still sin today. There is nothing new in our Culture that the Word of God cannot address and answer.

As a Christian I do not look to Conservative and certainly not Liberal sites for truths and facts. We mature Christians have learned to hear the Holy Spirit who lives within us. The Holy Spirit leads and guides us into all truth (John 16:13). Not just spiritual truth but ALL truth. I can actually tell when I'm being lied to.

What you fail to realize and what we Christians see and know is that we are in a spiritual war (Eph 6:12). People think this is a war between Conservative/Christians against Democrats/Socialists/Communists. It is NOT!!! This is not a physical war but a spiritual war "we do not war against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places" (Eph 6:12).

Take for example the war on abortion. We Christians see abortion as murder because God is the author of life and life begins at conception. The Left does not see it that way. Why? Because "the god of this world (satan) has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ". The unbelieving cannot see the truth. They are blinded and ONLY Jesus can remove those blinders. This is true with all sins. The unbelieving sees nothing wrong with lying, stealing, adultery, fornication, lust, murder, etc. Just as satan deceived Eve in the garden, satan today deceives the unbelieving.......Genesis 3:4-5 "The serpent said to the woman, “You surely will not die! 5 For God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”"

This life as we know it is coming to end. Scripture is being fulfilled before our eyes and we Christians know the return of Christ is near. Give you life to Jesus, because the only other option is eternal death aka hell..............

Matthew 25:31-46

31 “But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; 33 and He will put the sheep on His right, and the goats on the left.

34 “Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; 36 naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? 38 And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? 39 When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40 The King will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’

41 “Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; 42 for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; 43 I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.’ 44 Then they themselves also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not [a]take care of You?’ 45 Then He will answer them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’ 46 These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

I believe that the mind-body connection is not well understood and impacts disease states both positive and negative! Wikipedia can be edited by anyone, and there are gate keepers to maintain this information on Wikipedia to promote their bias agenda! Good example is the information on vitamin D, which under plays the true role that this hormone has in maintaining good health by being essential for the expression of over 3000 Genes! The breastmilk gene can’t be turned on, if deficient in D. Also, the. E-cadherin gene that prevents meta-stasis can’t be turned on if D is deficient. Two examples! The allopathic mindset is that we can improve treatment of disease states via external applications only. mRNA is just the latest profitable treatment path! What is ignored is how to improve health through prevention and reversal of negative life style issues. My hero, Dr Matthews took a 600 Lb man off

Heart transplant list by motivating dietary changes that reduced weight in half. Just an example. Finally, I’m guessing 80% of the information overloaded is designed to create a change in purchasing or prescribing habits! Consumer Rx should be banned!

A non-medical professional might call the recticular activating system (RAS) an individual's "personal antenna" resonating feedback or reacting to a specfic environment, while filters are a subjective interpretation of stimuli based on specific life experiences.

Be that as it may, I posted a comment today on another writer's Substack which might be apropos:

So you want to know why the US has devolved into an "open-air mental asylum?" Well it wasn't easy. In fact, it was a multi-decade project. Some of the more renowned shrinks responsible for constructing this asylum was Sidney Gottlieb, the "psycho chemist" who directed MKUltra by deploying a smorgasbord of concoctions to "mind-control" his victims. Some jumped out of windows after getting a dose of his LSD. And then there was the sadist shrink Donald Ewen Cameron another CIA employee who developed the concept of "social contagion" by psychologically victimizing subjects. It was his belief that mental illness can be "contagious" when the right mix of variables are put into play. And the Scottish born psychiatrist appears to be correct. Now lets add another ingredient to this diabolic recipe-- SSRIs anti-depression medication, which often strangely enough causes anxiety, depression, and rage...Interesting that.

I bet, you didn't know more than 37 million Americans are consuming antidepressants. And were you aware there's more than 2 million Americans who abuse Opioids. Now getting back to "psycho-psychiatry," I personally believe, programs like MKUltra never ended and unwitting populations are being used in "mental collateral damage experiments." However, the most obvious manifestation of mind-control is the demented fabricated myths spewed out from the mouths of mainstream media news commentators and those on supposedly Independent social media platforms. The power of this type of mind-game can't be underestimated, as it's been a decades long psychological warfare operation against the American population compounded by a deliberate dumbing down of public education. And that's why you're left with so many confused, disorientated, and emotionally disturbed folks ready to accept help from charlatans and pharmaceuticals. If the "pyscho-sadist security state" didn't hold all the keys to the open-air asylum the mental health of millions would immediately improve.

I like to think I enjoy the information overload but my wife disagrees. She thinks it’s damaging my brain. At some point, I may just have to become a bulldozer operator and play in the dirt all day. It’s been a dream of mine.

The example of those brainwashed by CNN, their information comes from a narrow focus. They have blinders on to reject any other information. But to be open minded and seek out information from as many different sources as possible that's to be enlightened and knowledgeable, even though it's information overload, it's for the better.

You are missing a key point: who controls the narrative, why and how.

Not explainable through money, power and corruption

“What makes a person want to control and hoard? What makes a person choose wealth or power or accumulating “stuff” over supporting each other thrive? Why would members of our own species want to destroy all life on this planet?

We aren’t dealing with your average Joe’s. They are multi-generations of inbred, disconnected, mentally unstable psychos whose entire existence has been destruction, murder and chaos.” 1

Think about it. If you were a billionaire: when is enough, enough? Is enough never enough? Instead of enjoying life with your loved ones, why would you spend most of your billions with a mafia obsessed to cull humans, risking a revolution and being jailed or executed? This is way larger than a psychonspiracy.

Why would Facebook Zuckerberg give 450 million away to rig the 2020 elections in favor of Biden and democrat governors when he didn’t get that money back from the government? Think: even if you were a billionaire fanatic of the Democratic Party, why would you spend 450 million dollars in bribery, risking jail? And 450 million doesn’t even count on what the Zuck Bucks bought in prior elections and 2024.

Why would a foreigner like Soros, who doesn’t even visit the USA, give away billions to the Democratic Party?

In 2010, masons Warren Buffet (who funded Microsoft) and Bill Gates founded The Giving Pledge to manage the money of any billionaire who, just like them, was a figurehead of the masonic mafia and had to return them the dirty money made from monopoly, usury, insider information, sabotage, moles, government grants, contracts and arranged bids, stolen patents, mason or corrupt judges favoring them (e.g. when Zuckerberg stole Facebook), counterfeit money and laundering, drugs, etc.

That’s why masons pushed for prenup agreement laws in most countries. Still, masons arrange “bad” divorces and recover control by diluting capital and increasing debt. That’s where funds like Berkshire Hathaway or Blackrock get in. Another way, is to agree on transferring billions to charities (Giving Pledge) and to create trust-funds for the kids (“trust fund babies”), and guess who is going to administer the funds: masons, thus keeping control of the companies (it’s not about the money, but about control).

• After an affair with Elon Musk in 2021, the wife of Google founder Sergey Brin, Nicole Shanahan got her secret divorce: Mason convenient: “California permits private judges as a way to reduce the load on the public legal system. These judges have all the rights and responsibilities of public judges but don’t operate through the public court system. The only documents that become public are the initial filing and the final decree. The decree can reference separate documents, keeping the actual details of things like child custody agreements or asset division private. This is significantly better for your privacy than public courts, where everything stated in court becomes a matter of public record, accessible by anyone interested.” It was Brin’ second divorce with a prenup, thus keeping his status of being the top 10 richest man on earth and saving (scamming?) over 50 billions in divorces. 2

• Melinda French (ex Gates) walked away with a couple of liquid billions after being duped for 50 billion in the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. 3 She still thinks it is a legit non-profit.

• Something strange happened with Bezos, who kept 16% more of Amazon than his ex MacKenzie Scott, 100% (not 50%) of the Washington Post, and 100% of the his space company, Blue Origin. 4

Figurehead money had to be put to use under the mason agenda. That might explain why “400 highest tax-paying Americans donated between 8 percent and 11 percent of their income in 2010”. By 2019, the Pledge had raised more than 500 billion from 200 out of 2000 global billionaires. 5 It could now be over a trillion dollars (1000 billion), considering that the 2 founders gave over 100 billion, then it’s less than 1 billion for the rest, if we discount the top 5 donors.

Living Pledge hall of shame: Mark Zuckerberg, Paul Allen (co-founder of Microsoft), Michael R. Bloomberg, Elon Musk, David Rockefeller (d. 2017), Jeff and Marieke Rothschild, Carl Icahn, Michael Milken (junk bonds scam), ...

They are not philanthropists (from greek, human-friends) but misanthropists (human-haters). They are not giving away their money: they are returning to Satan the stolen money to programs designed to exterminate us. Thank you but, no thank you! Their power is so obvious: their money is not taxed even if it’s destined to the common bad instead of the common good.

Why is it that so many billionaires are evil? It’s hard to believe s that money corrupts everyone: there are many examples that prove it doesn’t.

It looks like there is a rigged system that searches to corrupt them (Epstein) and only allows the most evil to become billionaires by destroying the competition with unchecked illegal practices.

If it wasn’t for the freemason cabal, why would IBM masons give pimple college-dropout Bill Gates monopoly to IBM PC, who didn’t even have a software and stole/“bought” it from a Seattle programmer?

The luciferian mafia pays you well: “Gates’ home, which he’s dubbed “Xanadu 2.0” as a reference to the movie Citizen Kane (note: you can’t make this stuff up!), was estimated to be worth $127.48 million in 2017. Add a large car collection and a $130 million art collection including a Leonardo da Vinci manuscript. The family also has a private jet worth almost $20 million and owns a private tropical island in Belize called Grand Bogue Caye, valued at about $25 million.” … just in exchange for eternal hell fire.

It's not the neo-cons6, reps or dems. It’s not the Feds, DoD, CIA, NSA, HHS, NIH, CDC, FDA. It’s not the USA, China, Russia, Ukraine, Israel. It's the MASONS and satanists in there! They promote hatred based on categories, political parties, races, religions, so we keep busy against each other while letting them destroy us all, blinded by identity fights. Divide and conquer. Factioning for ruling. Think about the concept of intersectionality: it was designed to multiply factions to the infinite, so that in the end, each person becomes a faction for himself!

That doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t cherish and nurture from your national, religious and cultural roots. Yet those roots should be used to enrich your community, nation and mankind, not to quash the rest of them, based on a narcissist pride that only leads to fight, while strengthening your enemy and weakening your identity: they have succeeded in creating a rootless de-familized global citizen, easy to be manipulated in a nationless global government.

Communists, Zionists, Islamic fundamentalists, Gaia worshipping environmentalists, UN, WEF, etc. All evil groups seem to be working for their cause only, yet they are all precisely coordinated. On top of the puppet groups there are the different mason sects, and on top of them, the satanist sects (all groups work for Satan, but those upper sects have direct worship).

There's no deep state, just freemasonry. There are no conspiracies, just freemason plots. There's no democracy with freemasonry, only conspiracy. Freemasonry is THE most lethal virus. Freemasonry is THE enemy of “the people”, that destroys a nation from within. There’s no 2030 globalism without freemasonry.

Cicero (in Taylor Caldwell’s fiction): “A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.” 7

Some say: “they want you DEAD or SLAVE!“. Wrong: they want you a dead slave… just like we let them treat the unborn babies: a person called a thing (definition of slavery), which could be killed at will.

A lot to “unpack” here, but worth the effort as always with your articles.

My undergrad nursing school’s curriculum in the late ‘70s and grad curriculum in the mid-80s were definitely different from the med school curricula. As nurses, we were taught to see the patient as a whole person with many things that could impact their health and recovery. Knowing the side effects of pharmaceuticals was one thing, because in a hospital (or even a clinic setting), we were the doctors’ eyes and ears and the patient’s advocate. I can’t count the number of times my nurse colleagues and I helped change the course of treatment positively, but it only worked with physicians willing to see past their filters. The patients did well when there was a multidisciplinary practice model. Such a model compensated for the filters each discipline had. And we all continued to grow professionally.

Thank you for your insight and analysis that helped me understand in a deeper way my own practice, including my shortcomings.

Have you considered compiling your articles in a book? You can count on me buying a few copies…

My former doctor, recently retired, was a lone internist. He gave patients ample time to explain themselves. He praised, didnt hector his patients. He also showed his human side in return. He was calm, but ready to refer to a specialist as necessary. His belief system was probably opposite mine, but, oh how I miss him!

"Teach people to focus on grasping the timeless essence of those teachings by allowing their minds to expand enough to see the nuances within those texts rather than having a superficial reading that fixates on specific simplistic phrases and then rearranges them to support whatever the agenda is of the reader."

Mortimer Adler helped me with that, but that was only because I wanted it.

You can't teach people to be intellectually curious. Either they got it or they don't. And if they don't got it, but they do want it, then they still have to come to it themselves, and then have the motivation to utilize their various sources to develop it onwards.

Often, it's all in the timing.

Doc, I enjoy your writing. Please allow me to add a comment: attachment to ideas is an aspect of attachment to the mental construct of self, ie: the identification with the small self (some call it ego) which we created in our youth to survive (psychologically and emotionally as well as physically). What we agree with and disagree with is part of the definition of this "self." For those who have learned to disengage from this identification, information can be collected and stored, waiting for corroboration. After enough corroboration, the information can be "suspected" to be true, without attachment.

I appreciate your efforts for truth. If you are truly interested, then I exhort you to look into the historical truth of Jesus Christ. On one hand, I cant imagine you haven't already looked into this...but when you did, did your biases filter in a way that caused you to discard? There are religions made by men, but there is only one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all.

I kept thinking while reading your substack that you are so earnest in the quest for truth that surely if you were able to hear the gospel you would be renewed in the spirit of your mind.

For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God, which things we also speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the spirit, comparing spiritual thoughts with spiritual words. But a natural man does not accept the things of the spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised.
