Moai Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Well, they are trying to make drugs that work so they can sell them from profit. And why not? What is wrong with profit? They are also intentionally conspiring with the food industry to keep us sick so that we need the drugs they are trying to make. You're kidding, right? This statement is paranoid and FALSE. How are they conspiring, exactly? Where are their meetings? You do realize that you WILL get sick, regardless of what you eat and how often you exercise, right? Again, if they wanted to keep us sick they wouldn't have eradicated small pox, measles, the mumps, etc. Who is the "food industry" anyway? Farmers? Nabisco? Why is it that fresh vegetables are available in every grocery store in the Western world--where drug companies mostly ply their trade? Why does the government spend billions on air time for ads encouraging people to exercise and eat a healthy diet? Are there gendarmes going to people's houses and forcing them to eat Doritos until they get diabetes? "I really HATE bacon, but the food industry makes me eat it every morning for breakfast and put it on my cheeseburgers...bastards.." The average life expectancy getting longer is also proff that this statement is false. All in all, drugs are doing a world of good, especially in the case of parasites. But the number one killers in America (heart disease, diabetics, cancer, etc.) are completely diet related. Not even close to completely. The three things you mentioned have a genetic component as well. Children get diabetes. Marathon runners get heart attacks. Children also get cancer. It is true that a healthy diet and exercise will contribute to your having a longer life, but if heart disease runs in your family there is only so much you can do. Link to post Share on other sites
sb129 Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 That is the key point of that link. dinosaurs weren't before Human beings. according to fossils that cannot link one species to another, evolutionists made up theories that is taught in today's school :eek: yeah, I respect science, but evolutionists have lots of assumptions, and their theories were built on these assumptions Lovelybird, when you start citing references that aren't parroting "answersingenesis" or other similar websites or the multitude of contradictory passages of the Bible you favour, perhaps people will take you more seriously. You really aren't helping your cause at all. Are you in China? Being a fundamentalist christian there must be an....interesting experience. There are so many things about this thread that have made me go that I don't actually know where to start. In fact, I will start with my knee jerk reaction which mirrors D-Lish's But no- I don't think dinosaurs "fit" in the bible... most of them are too big and it would make it hard to read with a T-rex snapping at you everytime you tried to turn the page. I really hope that research (especially stem cell) continues to get funding and that drug companies continue to make a profit, because we will all benefit if they do. That is all.

shadowofman Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Sorry for the derail about diet. Moai, you should read up on the research of Dr. Loren Cordain from Colorado State U. Most of the diseases that plague the modern world are auto immune disease. The "Diseases of Civilization". They are the result of eating an agricultural diet and a post industrial diet (food that humans have not evolved to eat). Just one example of the "conspirators" is the milk lobby. They paid big bucks to get the daily recommendation of milk intake INCREASED on the food pyramid recently. Even when the scientific evidence is showing that dairy CAUSES diseases like osteoporosis. So make sure your grandma is drinking her wholesome milk. Link to post Share on other sites
