[MPWG] Tiger and Bear parts.

[Wolkow, Robert]

Ivor,
 
I thought I did address your statements but if you didn't agree with my
response neither are you addressing it other than continuing your diatribe
about science. Sure science and medicine are imperfect and don't always get
it right but at least the attempt is being made, advances over medieval
practices have been made and it is no joke.
 
You offer no better alternative to understand the truths of nature.
 
Rob

Dr Wolkow ....

I laid out some statements ... you failed to address them.  

What about mares urine as a source of hormones for the female of the specie
to control her fertility with ? or what about animal parts implanted in
human bodies ?  What about the filth that is graced with the word vaccine ?
What about lobotomies .. hysterectomies and the removal of breasts .....What
about the antibiotic scandal ? What about the vaccination scandals ?


Scientific method has its place ... unfortunately as far as modern medicine
is concerned and the available evidence .... it seems to be sadly misplaced.
I say it again ... Clinical trials are a joke.

In the human body, everything is happening at once ... or at least 30,000
times per second.  The following is a quote from the Isis news letter by Dr
Mae-Wan Ho.  

The organism is full of cycles possibly because cycles make thermodynamic
sense. Cycles involve perpetual returns to the same states, they give
dynamic stability as well as autonomy to the organism. Cycles also enable
the activities to be coupled, or linked together, so that those yielding
energy can transfer the energy directly to those requiring energy, and the
direction can be reversed when the need arises. These symmetrical,
reciprocal relationships are most important for sustaining the system.
That's how our metabolism and physiology is organised: closing the cycle and
linking up.

The scientific medical model of one size fits all is clearly a nonsense ...
it is a nonsense because of the hundreds of thousands of variations from
individual to individual.  Who is it that determines which variables are to
be given priority, when attempting to reach a conclusion ?  Who is it that
is drawing conclusions from a snapshot of an organism frozen in time ?  This
is not in vivo but in vitro. Scientific ? I think not.

I also think that Ivan Illich (Medical Nemesis) was a prophet ..... because
everything he wrote in that illuminating book has come to pass .....
