The Nurse

WARNING:  Contains biased.  I found this to be both offensive and outrageous on the part of this nurse. Beyond CHUTZPAH!

I was going to link directly to the article about the nurse from Dallas who took a trip to wedding shop.  This woman not only traveled knowing she had been exposed to ebola, but was actually diagnosed with it and recovered.  Her little self-focused trip to Ohio caused 160 other people to be monitored, plus a business to lose a great deal of business.  Now, she has the nerve to ask for a refund from the bridal shop.  Her attorney said it was a "purely innocent request."  Guess what, Mr. attorney and Ms. client!  People who are making an innocent request don't need attorneys.  People who are making an effort to help, would offer something to make up for all the problems caused and loss of income!

Full story, in link below.

Clearly Unclear

As details continue to be reported, it would seem our current healthcare system and the CDC may actually be a part of the health care crisis . . . a large part.  There are reports of healthcare workers being fought and rejected in Western Africa, and very obvious reports of health care workers in this country taking unnecessary risks that may actually spread the disease . . . if it actually exists as we are told.

The problem with ebola continues to be the elusive reports and information that is not released by the CDC until facts are discovered.  Then the CDC "steps up" and admits the reality, hopefully.  The reality may or may not be worse than we are being told.  Much of the American public really doesn't trust the CDC, and trust is waning on the more personal levels for health care as well.  With the Executive Order 13295 amendment, respiratory issues can now result in quarantine.  Let that sink in for just a few moments.  How many people get a "touch of what's going around" in the winter?  With ebola fear, enterovirus 68, and flu season approaching, what is the potential reality that a visit to the doctor for a cough might end in quarantine?  I'm not fearmongering here, the power is already in place!

To add to this issue, HIPAA was put in place years ago, and I sounded the warning at the turn of this century, it was not at all about patient privacy.  HIPAA keeps concerned individuals from being able to locate friends and loved ones in the health care system.  HIPAA laws are the reason, the average person cannot call a hospital and ask how if their friend or loved one is in the facility.  When I was faced with the potential fallout of this very thing, I called family for the specific reason that I would not be "lost in the system."  Those are two mistakes I won't make again.  I won't ever enter health care willingly, and if I ever find myself there against my will, a call to family will not happen.  Speaking of calls . . .

Over seven years ago, I found myself in an ICU waiting room with the doctor telling me the patient's prognosis was grim and his condition was grave.  He then told me, it was time to call the family.  I went to the main lobby thinking I'd find pay phones, but I was wrong.  Upon making enquiry as to where the pay phones were, I was told there weren't any, but under the circumstances, I could use theirs.  There's a day coming, "they" won't allow that!   Just as disease prevention was a foundational in the rise of Nazi power in Germany, health care will be an invasive arm of power here, very soon.

Health Care and Ebola

I'm not going to write an article about this, I'm simply going to offer several outside links that you the reader can connect or choose to disregard.  These are simply statistics from other sites.  The CDC offers some startling facts and stats on their site.  According to the CDC, along with other stats that claim nearly 100,000 deaths by medication errors, annually, there are nearly that many deaths by communicable infection contracted in health care facilities, as well.

This one sort of takes the cake.  When I saw this headline and photo, I truly checked to see if it was a spoof news site.  Sadly, I found no evidence of spoof.

Bill Maher on Big Pharma

This short video really speaks volumes.  I wanted to offer two statements of qualification so I didn't just directly link it.  First, this video was made through the campaigning before the 2008 election and Bill makes a political statement that is obviously biased and very outdated.  Second, he uses one word that some may consider to be profanity, but is a three letter word.

This video still contains vital information!

A Doctor's Explanation

My mom basically thinks I've joined or am starting a cult.  She became a mega-church Christian, who is so dedicated to this pop trend, she watches Joel Osteen while she gets ready for church.  Between TV church, conservative talk radio, and doctor's appointments, her life is full.  Like so many aging Americans, doctor's appointments fill a great deal of her schedule.  I give these couple of sentences of background just so you know my source.

Recently, my mother explained to me that her doctor explained to her what the mark of the beast is . . . He claims to know what the mark of the beast is and has one, so my question was direct.  Do you still go see him?  She gave pause for a moment, then said, "Of course."  That's where Christian America stands if the mark of the beast is identified and owned by health care.  I tend to disagree with her doctor on what the mark is, but then I disagree with doctors regarding pharmakeia, also . . .

He and my mother were apparently discussing their joint views on current events, when the topic of the mark of the beast came up.  So as she was talking to me, she asked me if I knew what the mark was.  When she asks me a question, she's not looking for information, she's just testing me to see if I offer the same answer she already holds to.  I said, I didn't know.  I had some ideas, and thought it would probably be of some sort of technology, and I certainly did not plan to take the Veri-chip, but at this time, I really don't know what the mark of the beast will be.

That response served as her launch pad.  She informed me that her doctor held up his apple smart phone, or whatever they are called and stated, "This is the mark of the beast, it's held in your hand and up to your head.  There's even a bite out of the apple, like in the Garden of Eden."  Rather than offer a statement that would not be received, I asked a question.  "So do you agree with his statement?"  She said, "I think so, that internet is evil."  To that, I asked again, "If he openly admits to having the mark of the beast, why would you continue to see him?"  Her response was really odd considering the topic, and yet somehow, expected.  She said, "Man looks on the outward appearance, but G-d looks on the heart."

That may well be some of the scariest theology I've ever heard.  That may indeed cause many to justify taking the mark of the beast, when it really is presented . . . People truly believe pastors and doctors will not mislead them!

Unaffordable Health Care

Our Creator already offers affordable health care, but that's a subject for another article.  In watching all these various court cases, extensions and changes in the Affordable Health Care Act, I'm wondering about something.  Since the IRS is in charge of this mandatory insurance, and the federal subsidies are not going to be available in states that don't increase their medicaid rolls, the plot has taken a twist.

We already know without federal subsidies most of the people who signed up for this ACA can't afford the actual insurance premiums.  Most Americans that do not have insurance, don't have it, because they can't afford it.  Very few people really want to spend 4 to 8 hours waiting for an ER nurse to look down her nose at them while she takes their history, only to wait several more hours for an ER doctor to order tests.  I see this ACA going two ways very soon.

First, we'll have socialized medicine for the elderly and children . . . That will place the children completely in the hands of the government.  Second, I see the tax penalty remaining in place, only with many more payers because the subsidies become unavailable.  We've all played MONOPOLY.  Remember "POOR TAX?"


The upper income of the "working class" formerly known as the Middle Class, who have employer provided insurance will continue, at least for a time, business as usual, but the lower income working class whose employers do not provide coverage or enough hours to qualify, or the employee simply cannot meet their share of the cost of coverage, will be penalized.  Much of the "working class" of the country doesn't earn enough to pay income taxes, but the penalty comes off the top . . .

Increased minimum wage would only make the money worth less and raise the poverty level to a higher number.  The Affordable Care Act is not about the health insurance of Americans, it's about expanding power and generating revenue for the government.  When the IRS assesses and collects a penalty for one's inability to afford health insurance, that's called a Poor Tax!

The Mark?



I'm not saying the microchip is the mark of the beast but, I'm not saying it isn't.  This particular source is not one of my regular "go to" sites, but it raises a question we should all consider.  Anyone who would tell me we can't be sure that an RFID Chip the mark of the beast, I would agree, but I would also remind them we can't be sure it isn't, especially since health is a spiritual matter.  Scripture tells us repeatedly that our Creator is our Healer.  There are numerous examples of Messiah healing recorded throughout the accounts of the Gospel.   

This should at least raise the question as to whether we actually believe Scripture, when making a choice regarding our health care.  In the event the microchip is the mark of the beast, the choice may be made when one signs a consent form for "treatment."

I'm not sure, come judgment day, the answer, "But I had faith in my physician" will go over so big at the Great White Throne.

See the Invasion and Control?

The System of Sorcery is Upping the Ante . . . The article linked below, contains much information you might find interesting and alarming.  As I read, I just kept thinking how obvious the sorcery is in what we call "health care."  It seems now, the folks who used to man the psychic hotlines can call making health predictions according to your spending habits.  The USA is already a bona fide member of WHO World Health Organization.  The two links below will definitely give you something to consider.

Is Repentance in Order?





The programming has run for several generations now.  Although I shouldn't be, I continue to be surprised at the number of people of faith, who do not seem to care that the word sorcery in the book of the Revelation is translated from the Greek word "pharmakeus."  The obvious root word for pharmacy.

This cartoon is all too accurate!  In reading the final destination, mentioned in the Revelation, of those partaking or administering, perhaps it's time to use stronger words of WARNING beyond the pages of possible side-effects with the use of pharmaceuticals, like the word:  REPENT!

Statistically Speaking

The following information is provided to hopefully bring some reason to the debate of faith vs. medicine.  Included are reported statistics with links provided to the independent sources and full articles.  In a twenty year span, 30 children were reported to have died at the hands of Christian Scientist practitioners.  In 17 years, 65 known cases in Faith Assembly were discovered.  It's reported that 78 children died in a little over 30 years in the Followers of Christ Church in Oregon City, and an additional 12 children in Idaho in an affiliate congregation.  
Meanwhile, it is reported that at least 98,000 people die each year due to medical errors, with many estimates vastly exceeding that figure.  Here's just one example of deaths from appendicitis under medical care, in one year and the quote from this linked article  
Fit young people are still dying of appendicitis because doctors sometimes fail to recognise the symptoms, according to an authoritative report into hospital deaths.
Twelve people with appendicitis died between April 2000 and March 2001 according to the latest survey of the National Confidential Enquiry into Perioperative Deaths (NCEPOD). "What is perhaps more alarming is that two of these were in previously fit young men and another was a child of three," says the report.
Deaths of Christian Science children between 1974 and 1994 from the following causes are in CHILD’s files: 5 of meningitis, 3 of pneumonia, 2 of appendicitis, 5 of diabetes, 2 of diphtheria, 1 of measles, 8 of cancer, 1 of septicemia, 1 of a kidney infection, 1 of a bowel obstruction, and 1 of heart disease.
Between 1973 and 1990, 65 Faith Assembly children are known to have died of treatable illnesses without medical care. In 1983 the Centers for Disease Control and the Indiana Board of Health conducted a study of Faith Assembly members, who shun all medical care including obstetrics. Pregnant women in Faith Assembly were 86 times more likely to die than other expectant mothers in Indiana. The mortality rate for Faith Assembly infants up to 28 days old was 270% higher. See Andrew Kaunitz, Craig Spence, et al., “Perinatal and maternal mortality in a religious group avoiding obstetrical care,” American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology 150 (Dec. 1, 1984):826-31.
The Oregonian reported that 78 children died between 1955 and 1998 in the Followers of Christ Church in Oregon City, a church opposed to medical care. Twelve children died in an Idaho affiliate of the Followers of Christ. See Mark Larabee and Peter Sleeth, “Faith healing raises questions of the law’s duty-belief or life?,” The Oregonian (June 7, 1998):1.

Nursing Today

In the Bible we'll find nurses, but our society has certainly changed the meaning.  I'm not saying every nurse is bad, but nursing truly was among the first prominent "professions" to "just follow orders."  As health care changes we truly need to be aware of who and what we trust.

Licensed professionals work for the state that granted their license and the professional who pays their paycheck.  We like to think the licensure offers the client or patient protection, but the reality is, the client or patient is often led into "compliance" by trusted professionals.  You may be thinking this journalist is sounding a little paranoid.  This journalist didn't write any of the following articles.

Included are three links to what I consider very disturbing breaches of trust.

Reaping and Sowing

Last week we ran an article on MERS.  Middle East Respiratory Syndrome.  It has been reported that many who are contracting it are health care workers.  I believe as the global agenda expands using "health care" we'll discover a number of atrocities.  The link below gives information that is hardly a stretch by anyone's imagination.

I suggested, and I'm not saying it's proven, but I figured when the urine tests for employment began, it was for more than just drug screening.  I still believe that, but at this point in American history, most Americans willingly trust the medical community.  Time to wake up!

MicroChip Meds

A few years ago, in doing some research, I stumbled upon an article about microchip medication for osteoporosis and the women in the study seemed to be positive about the product.  Anything placed in the body for any purpose raises major red flags for me, but the casualness of the microchips, I found to be alarming.  Many people do not believe a microchip is the mark of the beast, and honestly I don't know if it is or not, but I don't plan to risk it.

I first had a glimpse of "implantable" medical procedures with MS pain relief.  A small container is placed in the side and a tube inserted into the spine for relief of pain and spasms.  The container was refillable . . . I declined the opportunity and so glad I did.  The next breakthrough of implantable medicines was the strange looking birth control implant in the upper arm.  Those made me queasy to even look at them.  I believe they were supposed to last 3-5 years or something like that.

Many will disagree with me, but I truly believe one of the most far reaching areas of control of our lives as the end days of unfold, will be the area of medicine.  As I said, I'm not sure what the mark of the beast will be, but pharmaceuticals require buying and selling, so I have no reason to rule these microchip implants out, as a possibility.

35 Years in the Business

I truly cannot verify that this guy isn't just launching a new schtick, since it took him 35 years to come clean, but the basic information is worth hearing.  The pharmaceutical industry has the biggest profit margin in the country, and has for year . . . Take just a few moments to consider this fact, please.  Any medication prescribed on an ongoing basis is not healing anything!  It is simply managing or masking symptoms and increasing some company's bottom line.

A New Secretary on the Horizon

We attempt to offer unbiased news, here at the Goshen Gazette, or we try to own our obvious bias and admit it.  Since I have nothing favorable to say about mandated health care or pharmaceuticals in general, I'm simply offering links to two articles that are neither pro nor con about health care or pharmaceuticals, but rather focus on the nominee for HHS.  The two links are articles from the Washington Post about Sylvia Matthews Burwell, the nominee to replace Kathleen Sebelius.  She has an interesting resume for those who are connecting the dots.

"You Shall Not Surely Die: "

In reading the article linked below, I just kept hearing the deceptive promise made to Eve by the serpent that sad, sad day in the Garden of Eden.

Isn't the avoidance of death and doubting our Creator, the reason doctors have so much power today?

Prescription Drugs

                                         Contributed by Bruce Timpany

For more than seven years, researchers followed 34,727 people who filled prescriptions for anti-anxiety medications like Valium and Xanax, or sleep aids like Ambien, Sonata and Lunesta, comparing them with 69,418 controls who did not. After adjusting for a wide variety of factors, the researchers found that people who took the drugs had more than double the risk of death. The study appears online in BMJ. The researchers tried to account for the use of other prescribed drugs, age, smoking, alcohol use, socioeconomic status, and other health and behavioral characteristics. Most important, the investigators also controlled for sleep disorders, anxiety disorders and other psychiatric illnesses, all of which are risk factors for mortality. The lead author, Dr. Scott Weich, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Warwick, said that while he and his colleagues were careful to account for as many potential risks as possible, they were not able to control for the severity of the illnesses suffered by the study participants. Still, he said, the research “adds to an accumulating body of evidence that these drugs are dangerous.” He added: “I prescribe these drugs, and they are difficult to come off. The less time you spend on them the better.

True Health Care

As we are approaching yet another deadline for signing up, I'd like to take a moment to remind everyone of one important fact.  We have a Creator who promised to keep us healthy if we live by His Word.

And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of YHWH thy G-d, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am YHWH Raphah [your healer.]  Exodus 15:26

Now I realize some of us are just coming into that knowledge and have already done considerable damage in disobedience.  I have good news, The Good News.

 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.  
Isaiah 53:5

Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:  And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.  James 5:14-15

More promise in writing.  Even if we've not been obedient in the past, we can be forgiven!

Containment Plans Continue . . .

I realize the ACLU is not always popular in what it represents, but this is interesting information that may affect many of us, especially now that detention without charges is officially part of America's rule of law, since the USA Patriot Act.

In my effort to avoid political blame, please let me remind you that both parties have agreed to this and continue to expand the power over the people.

How is This Health Care?

I am quite open regarding my complete distrust in pharmaceutical based health care and my refusal to place my faith in insurance.  It's not as much that I'm against these things, it's just that I believe our Creator has created everything we need for remedies and I don't consider faith and insurance to be compatible.  I realize there are laws in place that require minimum insurance or penalty.  I understand the price.

I found this information startling, as medicaid in many states is now a "loan" to be collected from one's estate, yet the processing of the forms is leaving many without coverage at the time they "need" it.

Very Invasive

Medicine is now an arm of the official government data base, and many hospitals in many states collect your baby's DNA at birth without parental consent or knowledge.  What's to stop the powers that be from implanting a chip or making a mark?

Legal Addiction

The war on drugs is about to become very personal and very invasive.  Prescription addiction is quite prevalent in our society.  Pushers are carrying brief cases, wearing lab coats, and openly advertising through news.  

I believe we are about to see the lives of people controlled beyond what we've ever seen before, in medication management.  Has anyone considered how easy it would be to persuade someone "needing" their prescription, to take a mark or receive a chip?

Playing God

Since we have addressed the issue of abortion in another article, I feel we really must present some sort of insight as to the potential for our government to play god in health care, yet again.  Hospitals are gaining entirely too much power over individual's rights in their role as sanctuaries to honor gods of education and pharmacology.  Judge R. H. Wallace, Jr. appears to see the error of these two systems uniting against a grieving family.

A family has been fighting to have a young woman removed from life support for nearly two months.  This young woman has not been declared dead, but she has been assessed as brain dead.  Her body is serving as an incubator for an unborn child.  Both the husband and the woman's parents have petitioned the court to order the hospital to allow their wife / daughter to die and be buried with some sort of dignity, but until now, the hospital has prevailed.

This case is not a right to life issue.  This case is not a pro-life issue, and this case is not like Terri Schaivo.  This situation is straight out of sci-fi horror.  The woman was found unconscious in November.  At that time she was 14 weeks along in a pregnancy.  She has never awakened, and no one knows how long she was unconscious.  Her breathing has been artificially sustained on life support for two months now, under the guise of causing the fetus to become viable.

If this woman had been allowed the dignity of a natural death, cause known or not known, the unborn baby would also have died, naturally.  Forty years ago, a pregnancy could not be confirmed until a second period had been missed, meaning the fetus would have been about 6 to 8 weeks along before it's existence was even confirmed.  Now that pregnancy can be confirmed within days, we, as a society have taken this knowledge to a new level and decided to "be as gods."  When that young woman died, the child she was carrying was not viable outside the womb.  It was not a choice the family made, this situation didn't offer a choice.  The hospital and government have chosen to play god for two months.

The choice to terminate an unwanted pregnancy is called abortion.  The acceptance of things outside of our control is called integrity.  An offer to ease pain is called compassion. The power to take people's choice and dignity is called tyranny.  The attempt to control life and death, especially utilizing unnatural means, is called rebellion against our Creator.
