The Reason Why

I created this blog was because I needed a place to freely share my views, ideas and questions in a public venue on various subjects that shape our society. I'd like to get feedback in the form of questions or just your own critical inputs, whether you agree or disagree with me isn't important the point is to THINK4YOURSELVES!

What Fast Food really does to Your Body

I was originally going to write an extensive post on the McDonald's food corporation in order to prove to all how disgusting and detrimental it really is for us but I decided to just embed this documentary film by Morgan Spurlock, an independent American filmmaker who does a great job in showing how awful fast food specifically Mcdonald's food is for you. The film is an hr. and a half long so make sure you have the time! Enjoy.

The Silent Killers. ASPARTAME



Too few of us are in good health considering that the United States now ranks in as one of the fattest nations in the world, with about a third of the population weighing in at obese levels. Too many of us are either over weight or suffer from malnutrition and most of the ones suffering these states are on the lower end of the social economic status. This isn’t too surprising considering the options that are made available, like the affordable fast food restaurants and the "refreshing" sweet drinks we consume on the regular. It’s obvious to us that our conditions are indeed due to such factors but none of us really take the time to go into depth as to what exactly is in these products. This article will serve as an eye opener and my hope is that YOU will take from this and work on your own health or research this information if it doesn’t seem sufficient. It’s time for us all to start taking responsibility for our conditions and start calling out those who are trying to bury is in bad health, crime, and poverty. Let us break these chains that bound us because the power is still at our hands reach, nothing worth having is ever easy to attain, so we must become dedicated people! Originally I was going to discuss two major topics that intertwine those being a common artificial sweetener called Aspartame (also known as NeoTame and NutraSweet) and the Fast food industry, specifically McDonald’s, but I found so much information that will surely make all of you reconsider drinking another Soda without reading the label again. There will be two separate posts as I would like to include as much pertinent information as I possibly can. This post will cover the Artificial sweetener: ASPARTAME 
-Aspartame is an artificial sweetener that reduces the level of serotonin in the body and it contains methanol but contains no ethanol or pectin the antidotes found in the foods where it naturally occurs, therefore the methanol is converted to formaldehyde (a deadly neurotoxin and class A carcinogen) and formic acid.

Prophetic wombs: The Dangers of PCBs & Methyl Mercury


When a child is conceived there are so many outside influences that can affect the healthy development of its biology that it’s astounding to truly be born completely free of slight irregularities. Everything from the woman’s biological and psychological inclinations can have adverse affects on the fetus. For example when a woman is pregnant they are usually advised to stay away from alcohol do to its implied negativity. It can cause fetal alcohol syndrome in its most severe cases or a diminished IQ level of up to seven (7) points in others. On the positive side it can relax the mother’s muscles during birth, allowing a much smoother delivery, hence a safer one. Everything has to do with moderation, but then there are the things we don’t intentionally consume that have greater more devastating outcomes, like pathogens. These pathogens are such a huge problem because of their prevalence, and ability to spread to the furthest corners of the earth. They have even been detected in the barely touched Antarctic snow, which goes to show how widespread our pollution really is. Pathogens are in their simplest form just synthetic chemicals we produce.

A little Poetic Art 4 all of you.

A Lower East Side Poem


Just once before I die
I want to climb up on a
tenement sky
to dream my lungs out till
I cry
then scatter my ashes thru
the Lower East Side.

So let me sing my song tonight
let me feel out of sight
and let all eyes be dry
when they scatter my ashes thru
the Lower East Side.

From Houston to 14th Street
from Second Avenue to the mighty D
here the hustlers & suckers meet
the faggots & freaks will all get
high
on the ashes that have been scattered
thru the Lower East Side.

How The Mass Media is Dumbing US DOOOWn!

The following is a short video done by a  person who shares my view of the way that mass media is dumbing us down one generation at a time. These mass media corporations don't want us to ever think critically, or much less to question their messages because no one pushing an agenda really wants anyone to actually THINK4 THEMSELVES. There is much more to a tv show or a news cast than meets the eye, like subliminal messages or the outright blasphemous ideological doctrines that they push. They have tried to convince us that we can no longer be intelligent citizens, that we can no longer think critically 4 ourselves and sadly taking a look at where we rank academically they're doing a GREAT job.

Questioning Religion

The following is a very powerful presentation by someone named Stephen Fry who makes a remarkable and valid point in questioning the Christian (Catholic) Religion. He does an amazing twenty minute lecture at The Intelligence² Debate.  After a few disclaimers about having no objections to any religious beliefs, Fry proceeds to criticize the Catholic church for its historical (and current) dogmas, especially regarding their policies about sex and their treatment of the poor and working class. Depending on how open minded you are will determine if you will watch it in its entirety or not.

HAITI'S 7.0 EARTHQUAKE



Many alternate theories as to how unlikely events have occurred have always been secluded and placed under the umbrella term of “Conspiracy Theory”, which by definition means any concurrence in action; or a combination in bringing about a given result (of course with negative connotations). So pretty much of you question anything that goes against mainstream notions, and dare share it with anyone you will run the risk of being called a conspiracy theorist. No longer can one practice science the way it was meant to be practiced, because it’s no longer ok to question the validity of a given argument. There have been instances where press released data have been proven to be manipulated to show results that inconspicuously cater to the highest bidder; whoever pays more for a favorable end result. Sometimes these are pharmaceutical companies or they are very powerful banks but most disturbing of all sometimes the highest bid comes from the government, the very people we put into power. They carry these plans out under the cloak of “for your freedom, and for your protection”. Examples of this you ask? How about global warming, is it a man made phenomenon or rather as the incorrupt data shows a cycle. A cycle that all the planets in our solar system are experiencing, but for some odd reason we are experiencing a more accelerated version or how about the H1N1 data that was manipulated to show a great threat of PANDEMIC proportions, which in reality has claimed less lives than the regular seasonal flu. They were manipulated to justify vaccinations that weren’t clinically ready to be administered, but did make doctors and their suppliers (i.e. pharmaceutical companies) plenty of money. These fear mongers are the ones that should be criticized and scrutinized for their morally unjust habitudes and not the reasonable citizens who question them. I am aware that this is a very powerful statement but for anyone who has ever even touched on a political issue or followed politics closely disinformation, manipulation or the complete fabrication of information, wouldn’t be beyond any government. The so called conspiracy theorists for the most part are actually some of the most intelligent and responsible citizens, because they make sure that the greater good is actually being honored and don’t settle for asininity. People are on a daily basis bombarded with disinformation and propaganda, so it is only commonsensical to step back and analyze most things that seem far fetched.
