Guest guest Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Dear Misty: You have a great list; I've always enjoyed it very much and, as you know cross posted a lot of your posts to my group. I'm sorry you are so short on time to post very much now, but can relate to that myself! With regard to post I responded to, I didn't realize it was an old one, I'm sorry, somehow I must have missed it before...I hadn't cleaned out my inbox for ages. I agree with you on a lot of things but also disagree on many. I don't comment because I don't have time to keep going back and forward debating/arguing, also I'm not going to change your mind and you aren't going to change my mind..everyone has their own mind-set and interprets things to fit that mind-set. But even good friends can disagree. I'm just going to comment on the things that I disagree with you about: >>Do you think it is for our general health that medicines from Canada- not even a third world country- mind you, are not allowed in the USA- at a substantial lower price, so more people that wish to go the allopathic route, can afford it. Do you think it is for our protection- or that of the wallet of the American drug companies. << Misty it is the Canadian Government itself which will halt or limit the drug reimportation situation. Pharmacies in Canada that did not have enough supply for American customers have imported questionable supplies form 3rd world countries. >>Do you think monsanto by messing with the genes of very common foods, so that they can control the reproduction of the plants- and therefore in time the food supply itself, is for our health- or the large corporations that control politics.<< Luther Burbank altered many foods through processes before genetic methods available today. Do you think seedless grapes occur naturally? http://score.rims.k12.ca.us/activity/LBSite/grf/grvt3.html And for me, who just can't get over how the WTC building 7 went down like a controlled demolition- a controlled demoliltion admited to by the guy in charge of the WTC and yet most Americans have never heard that- because the media is so slanted or selective hearing, I am not sure... To question the veracity of the plane story even though building 7 went down like all the others- but was NEVER struck by any plane- is seen as being unpatriotic. What happened to America, where lively debate was a cherished right. When free speech was everywhere- not just a " Free Speech Zone " behind barbed wire and police dogs. And we have the gaul to say we are bringing Freedom to Iraq. Who is going to bring us freedom? Many buildings besides WTC7 that were not directly hit by airplanes were severely damaged and destroyed in the 911 attack. Hence the group does not get many posts- not even you has posted an article of insight, benefit or worth, but rather an attack on someone else... When I first joined your group, ( and I was absolutely delighted to find you..this was just what I was looking for!) I was dismayed by the obvious liberal slant... and the woman who joined with me unsubbed immediately. However, after I spoke with you about it, for a couple of years you seemed to stay on topic . But it's your list and if you choose to bring politics into it continuously ( sometimes, as you say it is necessary) so be it. I keep politics off my list because, as with opinions on religion, I find it's a turn-off to people. A lot of people, like myself, just don't have time to debate and would rather just not go there anymore...which I thought maybe happening with your group....and I thought it was a shame, because, you really do provide a lot of good information about natural health and nutrition which made for a great list. Just my opinion...oh,I have posted on occassion..one I remember in particular was on " Real Salt " . Warm regards and all the best to you Misty, Evonne http://www.cafepress.com/katrina_rabbits - mistylyn trepke Monday, September 26, 2005 12:54 AM Re: [s-A] Human-buttons Dear Evonne... Calm down... First of all, this message posted weeks and weeks and weeks ago... Your stirring up muck that has long washed down the river... The main reason no one is posting here, is because, as the largest contributor by far, like 99.95% by volume over the years, I have had limited time to continue posting... How can health not involve politics and polictics not health?? Do you think it is for our general health that medicines from Canada- not even a third world country- mind you, are not allowed in the USA- at a substantial lower price, so more people that wish to go the allopathic route, can afford it. Do you think it is for our protection- or that of the wallet of the American drug companies. Do you think monsanto by messing with the genes of very common foods, so that they can control the reproduction of the plants- and therefore in time the food supply itself, is for our health- or the large corporations that control politics. Do you trust the FDA, an alleged watch dog against the pharmaceutical companies, when in the last year we have seen how for years and years they have promote drugs that simply are not safe- but bring in billions of dollars. Is that health or politics? Is CODEX, the global attempt to limit and remove supplements and vitamins from everyday people, politics or health? And for me, who just can't get over how the WTC building 7 went down like a controlled demolition- a controlled demoliltion admited to by the guy in charge of the WTC and yet most Americans have never heard that- because the media is so slanted or selective hearing, I am not sure... To question the veracity of the plane story even though building 7 went down like all the others- but was NEVER struck by any plane- is seen as being unpatriotic. What happened to America, where lively debate was a cherished right. When free speech was everywhere- not just a " Free Speech Zone " behind barbed wire and police dogs. And we have the gaul to say we are bringing Freedom to Iraq. Who is going to bring us freedom? Now, you and I spoke years and years ago... And I consider you a fellow group owner that I respect. You then yelled at me that I was too liberal.. I will remind you what I told you then, which still stands true today, if you disagree with the position of an article- then post an article you do approve of... To date you have never taken me up on that... Hence the group does not get many posts- not even you has posted an article of insight, benefit or worth, but rather an attack on someone else... Can you see why I might choose to take a break for awhile? Misty Evonne Vey <petart3 wrote: Dear Truth (cough, splutter!)
