The Monsanto/Bayer, Big pHarma nightmare!

image

As you already figured out, I tried to find out all I can about how callous, impersonal, selfish, greedy and uncaring about people, Monsanto/Bayer was.

So, I’m cruising the internet and I come across an article that put Monsanto/Bayer’s complete disregard for people’s spiritual/ religious perspective about eating.

The article, written by David Stein and appearing on Food Freedom News, made it so clear as to how Monsanto/Bayer does not give a s**t about anything but money. I contacted them, asked, and received permission to reprint.

The title is, Your Spiritual Right to GMO Labeling.

“Have you ever considered that without labeling, numbers of religious groups are having their religious rights violated? 

Jews have kosher labels.  So where are the labels for all people with the religious need to eat what comes only from God, or to eat in a way that is spiritually tolerable according to their beliefs?

Buddhists are not supposed to take in anything toxic whether by mouth or through what they read or hear, but are forced to consume toxic GMOs by not knowing what is what.

Orthodox Jews are not supposed to mix species when plowing fields (no horse and buffalo, together) or in clothing (no linen mixed with wool) or to eat milk with meat, but they are being forced to eat food that mixes species and whose RNA can be affecting their DNA.

What of pantheism which runs through almost all religions, in which people believe deeply that we are all part of nature itself and their spiritual lives are based on seeking and finding that harmony? 

How can they/we find spiritual peace inside ourselves if nature itself is being ripped to shreds by the biotech industry and they/we are forced through lies and trickery to consume abominations of nature and the defiling of God’s gift to us all? 

As the earth is being desecrated by corporations, pantheists are, increasingly, all of us. 

 The genetic engineering of plants, trees, and animals is a genetic engineering of living things that people feel viscerally, out of horror at the attack on what God has given us in perfection, or out oneness with all life, as a literal attack on themselves.

Spiritual and religious people cannot eat food blindly.  They must know if they are violating fundamentals of their moral codes, or spiritual codes. 

 For those who are not vegetarian but find cruelty to animals violates their most deeply held religious beliefs, what of them, they must know whether those animals are forced to eat feed that is causing them pain, and is turning them infertile.

Putting “health” aside, eating GMOs is an immense and profound religious issue.  Religious groups can’t even practice according to their ethical beliefs or even religious injunctions unless they know what they are eating. 

Many religious or spiritual people consider the body a temple of God and what they take into it is a sacrament.

Kosher labeling came into place to allow Jews to fulfill their religious requirements. 

Would Jews accept being told it costs too much, or that it doesn’t matter and pork is fine?  What would happen if anyone tried to lower kosher standards?  Are other people’s religious needs to know what they are eating any less significant?

For many religious or spiritual people, sickness follows not so much from eating what is toxic but from violating spiritual principles.

The biotech industry is desecrating gifts given to all of us by God.

From “In the Beginning and in the Other Beginning“:

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth ….

“In the beginning of the 1900s, bankers and oil barons created laboratories to produce synthetic substances ….”

Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so.

“…. Then CEOs said, ‘Let the laboratories alter seeds that already exist so we can claim them as an inventions and apply patents so they are no longer free to all mankind.  And let these laboratories ensure these “inventions” include poisons we own.  And let these “inventions” not produce seed after more than one season.”

…. The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

“Then farmers planted the man-altered seeds which produced vegetation never seen before and different from its kind, and causing new illnesses as well as deaths of fetuses. And farmers had to sign contracts forcing them to use poisons on the man-altered seeds, contracts that forbade them and even Ruth, from ever collecting these altered seeds.”

And God said, “Let the water team with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.” So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind.” And God saw that it was good.

“And the CEOs said “Let our seeds fill the land and our poisons in the waters and air,” and they were silent as the altered seeds and poisons deformed and killed animals of water and air.  And the CEOs saw that their profit was good.”

God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.”

“The CEOs cursed them ….  ”

And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.”

And it was so. God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

“The CEOs said “Let our laboratories produce the wild animals, so that all living creatures can be patented and owned. And the CEOs saw that it was profitable.”

Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

How can people fulfill a religious obligation to rule over nature and protect it if a few corporations claim to own it and are setting loose unnatural, plants and even man-made creatures that can destroy a natural that many people believe deeply was given to all out of love?

The intense reaction to what the biotech industry is doing is inadequately described as coming out anger at injustice or out of fear over health concerns. 

What we are feeling comes out of pantheism and other spiritual beliefs in which we know deep inside us that we are inseparable from the salmon being mutated or from the corn being inserted with pesticides or from the water being poisoned. 

Those with spiritual consciousness experience all living things – animals, plants, trees, fish – as part of themselves, and all as part of God. 

In not labeling GMOs, people are being forced against their will to participate in the evil of deconstructing what God (Nature) has provided everyone, forced to consume it and feed it to their children. 

 But they are also being cut off from consuming what is from God, and having their every bite be a sacrament and a moment of great gratitude. The spiritual issues pile up. 

There is the reality that fertility itself is of central spiritual importance and people are being blocked from avoiding GMO’s that are damaging fertility.

And in this time of awakening of human consciousness, for those who believe this is the point of their spiritual life and all life itself, many believe that their DNA is directly related to spirituality  so to threaten DNA is to threaten spirituality and consciousness itself.

But whether one agrees or not, based on religious rights, why do we even need to know for sure whether soy does cause infertility or corn, cancer, or GMOs are damaging our connection to God or the cosmos? 

We don’t have to answer those questions but only need to know that we have the right to know what is from God or what is not. 

Because man has broken the chain of life in which food was perfect fit for animals and humans and was healing and has been so tampered with as to create not health but fear and disgust, many people, out of religious or spiritual need, want to and even must avoid anything coming from man – because it is non-God, unnatural, “sin – thetic”.

And many people want to avoid any potential eugenics threat from man (whether by accident or intentionally) which man can create in “playing” God.

Don’t Jews, out of religious feeling and the spiritual honoring of their dead, have the religious right to refuse whatever is made by the same companies that dealt in eugenics before and intentionally killed millions?  Is this not a religious need?

From a religious point of view, do we not all have the right to know what is coming from these historically racist and deadly companies in order to distance ourselves from their evil?  (This includes vaccines, that are also GMOs,  being forced on children and increasingly on adults and aftermaths have shown they do not work and studies show worse.

So evil and unstoppable have these companies become, there is a PR effort to bring back eugenics and treat it as more than “normal,” but as a social obligation in one’s own family.

The debate around GMOs has not reached to the depths enough. The core issue involved is that we are all part of the web of life, of which corn and soy and every plants, every fish, every mosquito, tree, frog, bird, microorganism, water and each of us is a precious, critical piece. 

One can protest the threat to health from GMOs or the greed involved or the corruption of governments and laws, but for many people, deep inside themselves, this is a spiritual issue. 

To be connected to Nature itself, is what makes life worth living, is an obligation deeper than any other.  To tear it apart is to tear at God.  To alter it is evil.  To attempt to force what is not from God on anyone breaks a bond they need to live. 

To create a man-made “invention” (via “destruction” of nature) that is coded with poisons, and one that is potentially eugenic (able to end fertility) and then to force it by lies of feeding the hungry or creating a new drug, on any living creature or any human being, goes beyond evil.

In this, even atheists and spiritual people of all kinds can come together, for one does not have to believe in a God to feel oneself part of the web of life and so deeply affected by attacks on it. 

The labeling of GMOs is a spiritual necessity for all those who view their relation to nature (or God) as indivisible from it.  For an increasing number of people, food is a sacrament, and nature is holy”.

This is just another nail in the coffin by Monsanto. They follow my favorite expression to the T: In God we trust. All others pay cash.

When I wrote my article  about the group Aikea formed in Hawaii, in an effort to bring government back to the hands of the people, I received a comment that this group resembled Marxism.

My comment about that is we have become so complacent and so subservient to the political powers that be that anything that tries to restore power back to the people is looked down upon. If we can change the political climate in America and through diligence and perseverance have all our foods labeled, how is that anything less than democracy? The problem is that a program like that takes effort and very few people can’t be bothered.

For more information regarding Aikea, their website is www.aikeahawaii.org.

Oh yeah, two of Hawaii’s Senators in the District of Corruption voted against keeping the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution as it is and wanted to vest it in the hands of the United Nations. They were not alone. There were 44 others and they lost by 7 votes.

(2nd Ammendment: “The right to keep and bare arms.”

Slowly, the Constitution is being eroded and internment camps are being formulated in the contiguous United States, with Hawaii being a full State camp unto itself due to the fact that the only way really to get in or out is by plane or boat. The Coast Guard will take care of the latter and shutting down the airports takes care of the first.

First, reverse your health and become vibrant. The last thing the government, the biotech industry, Big pHarma, the medical profession, the media and the large food companies that all voted to defeat Proposition 37 in California want, are healthy people. 

Why? Because they are harder to control and exploit.

Aloha!

When I was a kid, if I were told that I'd be writing a book about diet and nutrition when I was older, let alone having been doing a health related radio show for over 36 years, I would've thought that whoever told me that was out of their mind. Living in Newark, New Jersey, my parents and I consumed anything and everything that had a face or a mother except for dead, rotting, pig bodies, although we did eat bacon (as if all the other decomposing flesh bodies were somehow miraculously clean). Going through high school and college it was no different. In fact, my dietary change did not come until I was in my 30's.

Just to put things in perspective, after I graduated from Weequahic High School and before going to Seton Hall University, I had a part-time job working for a butcher. I was the delivery guy and occasionally had to go to the slaughterhouse to pick up products for the store. Needless to say, I had no consciousness nor awareness, as change never came then despite the horrors I witnessed on an almost daily basis.

After graduating with a degree in accounting from Seton Hall, I eventually got married and moved to a town called Livingston. Livingston was basically a yuppie community where everyone was judged by the neighborhood they lived in and their income. To say it was a "plastic" community would be an understatement.

Livingston and the shallowness finally got to me. I told my wife I was fed up and wanted to move. She made it clear she had to be near her friends and New York City. I finally got my act together and split for Colorado.

I was living with a lady in Aspen at the end of 1974, when one day she said, " let's become vegetarians". I have no idea what possessed me to say it, but I said, "okay"! At that point I went to the freezer and took out about $100 worth of frozen, dead body parts and gave them to a welfare mother who lived behind us. Well, everything was great for about a week or so, and then the chick split with another guy.

So here I was, a vegetarian for a couple weeks, not really knowing what to do, how to cook, or basically how to prepare anything. For about a month, I was getting by on carrot sticks, celery sticks, and yogurt. Fortunately, when I went vegan in 1990, it was a simple and natural progression. Anyway, as I walked around Aspen town, I noticed a little vegetarian restaurant called, "The Little Kitchen".

Let me back up just a little bit. It was April of 1975, the snow was melting and the runoff of Ajax Mountain filled the streets full of knee-deep mud. Now, Aspen was great to ski in, but was a bummer to walk in when the snow was melting.

I was ready to call it quits and I needed a warmer place. I'll elaborate on that in a minute.

But right now, back to "The Little Kitchen". Knowing that I was going to leave Aspen and basically a new vegetarian, I needed help. So, I cruised into the restaurant and told them my plight and asked them if they would teach me how to cook. I told them in return I would wash dishes and empty their trash. They then asked me what I did for a living and I told them I was an accountant.

The owner said to me, "Let's make a deal. You do our tax return and we'll feed you as well". So for the next couple of weeks I was doing their tax return, washing their dishes, emptying the trash, and learning as much as I could.

But, like I said, the mud was getting to me. So I picked up a travel book written by a guy named Foder. The name of the book was, "Hawaii". Looking through the book I noticed that in Lahaina, on Maui, there was a little vegetarian restaurant called," Mr. Natural's". I decided right then and there that I would go to Lahaina and work at "Mr. Natural's." To make a long story short, that's exactly what happened.

So, I'm working at "Mr. Natural's" and learning everything I can about my new dietary lifestyle - it was great. Every afternoon we would close for lunch at about 1 PM and go to the Sheraton Hotel in Ka'anapali and play volleyball, while somebody stayed behind to prepare dinner.

Since I was the new guy, and didn't really know how to cook, I never thought that I would be asked to stay behind to cook dinner. Well, one afternoon, that's exactly what happened; it was my turn. That posed a problem for me because I was at the point where I finally knew how to boil water.

I was desperate, clueless and basically up the creek without a paddle. Fortunately, there was a friend of mine sitting in the gazebo at the restaurant and I asked him if he knew how to cook. He said the only thing he knew how to cook was enchiladas. He said that his enchiladas were bean-less and dairy-less. I told him that I had no idea what an enchilada was or what he was talking about, but I needed him to show me because it was my turn to do the evening meal.

Well, the guys came back from playing volleyball and I'm asked what was for dinner. I told them enchiladas; the owner wasn't thrilled. I told him that mine were bean-less and dairy-less. When he tried the enchilada he said it was incredible. Being the humble guy that I was, I smiled and said, "You expected anything less"? It apparently was so good that it was the only item on the menu that we served twice a week. In fact, after about a week, we were selling five dozen every night we had them on the menu and people would walk around Lahaina broadcasting, 'enchilada's at "Natural's" tonight'. I never had to cook anything else.

A year later the restaurant closed, and somehow I gravitated to a little health food store in Wailuku. I never told anyone I was an accountant and basically relegated myself to being the truck driver. The guys who were running the health food store had friends in similar businesses and farms on many of the islands. I told them that if they could organize and form one company they could probably lock in the State. That's when they found out I was an accountant and "Down to Earth" was born. "Down to Earth" became the largest natural food store chain in the islands, and I was their Chief Financial Officer and co-manager of their biggest store for 13 years.

In 1981, I started to do a weekly radio show to try and expose people to a vegetarian diet and get them away from killing innocent creatures. I still do that show today. I pay for my own airtime and have no sponsors to not compromise my honesty. One bit of a hassle was the fact that I was forced to get a Masters Degree in Nutrition to shut up all the MD's that would call in asking for my credentials.

My doing this radio show enabled me, through endless research, to see the corruption that existed within the big food industries, the big pharmaceutical companies, the biotech industries and the government agencies. This information, unconscionable as it is, enabled me to realize how broken our health system is. This will be covered more in depth in the Introduction and throughout the book and when you finish the book you will see this clearly and it will hopefully inspire you to make changes.

I left Down to Earth in 1989, got nationally certified as a sports injury massage therapist and started traveling the world with a bunch of guys that were making a martial arts movie. After doing that for about four years I finally made it back to Honolulu and got a job as a massage therapist at the Honolulu Club, one of Hawaii's premier fitness clubs. It was there I met the love of my life who I have been with since 1998. She made me an offer I couldn't refuse. She said," If you want to be with me you've got to stop working on naked women". So, I went back into accounting and was the Chief Financial Officer of a large construction company for many years.

Going back to my Newark days when I was an infant, I had no idea what a "chicken" or "egg" or "fish" or "pig" or "cow" was. My dietary blueprint was thrust upon me by my parents as theirs was thrust upon them by their parents. It was by the grace of God that I was able to put things in their proper perspective and improve my health and elevate my consciousness.

The road that I started walking down in 1975 has finally led me to the point of writing my book, “A Sane Diet For An Insane World”. Hopefully, the information contained herein will be enlightening, motivating, and inspiring to encourage you to make different choices. Doing what we do out of conditioning is not always the best course to follow. I am hoping that by the grace of the many friends and personalities I have encountered along my path, you will have a better perspective of what road is the best road for you to travel on, not only for your health but your consciousness as well.

Last but not least: after being vaccinated as a kid I developed asthma, which plagued me all of my life. In 2007 I got exposed to the organic sulfur crystals, which got rid of my asthma in 3 days and has not come back in over 10 years. That, being the tip of the iceberg, has helped people reverse stage 4 cancers, autism, joint pain, blood pressure problems, migraine headaches, erectile dysfunction, gingivitis, and more. Also, because of the detoxification effects by the release of oxygen that permeates and heals all the cells in the body, it removes parasites, radiation, fluoride, free radicals, and all the other crap that is thrust upon us in the environment by Big Business.
