Anything EXCITING happening yet? YAAWN!

Believing in the results of "studies" is dangerous. Remember the "study" that found children were NOT in any way adversley affected by sugar? Do you suspect the fact that this "study" was funded by the sugar interests might have had something to do with its outcome?

The truth is, all beings are spirits, not bodies. Some, hard-core secularists in particular, like to blame the result of people's non-survival choices on the body or body chemicals . . . "Oh, gosh, I just can't help myself, I have no choice, my body made me do it . . . "

Blaming a condition that results from one's own decisions on this or that brain chemical is is the modern "scientific" way of "proving" that no one needs to take responsiblity for their choices and actions. One favorite phrase is "It's not YOUR fault!" And since it's purely a "chemical problem", well then, the only answer to any such condition is chemical --- meaning DRUGS, more of. Thus, it's best to check and see who is funding a particular "study", and what they are selling, before taking it as gospel.

Take the spirit, the actual decision maker, out of the equation --- which is the goal of the hard-core secular interests in the society - - - and you elminate the concept of free will. That accomplished, you open the door to blaming anything and everything that people do on anything other than the true culprit, the decision maker, the spirit.

The body CAN have an effect on one, and so can chemicals. But bodies and chemicals don't make decisions. That's the sole province of the spirit, the OWNER of the body. And the spirit's decisions, good or bad, pro-survival or counter-survival, have consequences. Not knowing this truth, those who do "studies" often get CAUSE and EFFECT backwards. They conclude that because a certain chemical happens to be on the scene, it is the CAUSE of the condition they are examining when, in actual fact, it is spirit's decisions and actions which CAUSE that chemical to be there! [Example: Get angry, and certain chemicals will appear in the body. To blame getting angry on the chemicals is backwards. The chemicals appear as a RESULT of the decision to get angry. They aren't the CAUSE of one's anger . . . that comes from the DECISION to get angry!]
