Hi Tessa, you might find this book by Forest Maready quite interesting: https://store.forrestmaready.com/collections/books-shirts-more/products/crooked

His explanations of modern diseases is quite close to yours though he restrains himself to aluminum and some antibiotics as the toxins that transforms benign infections into chronic diseases.

Anyway, thanks for sharing as always. You are a genius for the intuition you have about our modern disease. I hope the world sees it soon 🙏

Tessa, this is so well said - : ) - "To my senses, the behavioral pattern characterized by a missionary itch (I am being witty) is a sign of one of two things: an emotional imbalance or a contract with the you know. Outside of those two conditions, we can draw our own conclusions about everything, seek the most truthful and useful understanding of the world that works for us, learn from each other, change our minds as much as we want, and be friends. :)"

:) I almost called you (or rather my inner five-year-old did :) when I realized that there seems to be no basic agreement on the definition of "gene." There is a working agreement, kind of, but again, we are talking a convention.

Very well stated... I am on the no-virus side, but for the fact that the "germ theory" draws the attention away from the "living healthy" theory, which is what I perceive to be the better way of thinking and living and why I also like your thinking. It breaks my heart that the people on the same alternative side are fighting about such things instead of all focusing on fighting pharma and their evil plans.....(WHO treaty, WEF agenda, climate hoax). You have my support, well said!!!!

Tessa, let me begin by saying I very much enjoy your posts. I find them thoughtful and thought provoking without being strident.

I am an advocate of science, the science that searches for truth, not the pseudoscience of most of those who label themselves 'scientists' these days. Real science uses the scientific method to extract truth. How does this work?

A scientist makes an observation of some phenomena and forms a hypothesis (an educated guess) as to the cause of the observation, the observation being the effect of the cause. Then the scientist gathers evidence, in the form of experiments, to either confirm or falsify the hypothesis, that is, to identify or fail to identify the actual cause of the observed result. As there can be many possible causes, these must be eliminated until the true cause is isolated. This is done by conducting the experiment both with and without one of the possible causes present in the experiment until the actual cause of the initial observed result (effect) is identified. These are known as control experiments.

This leads me (finally!) to your statement about believing in contagion. To follow the scientific method, we must hypothesize about the method of contagion, the mode of transmission, the cause of how sick people make well people ill. Then we test that hypothesis by setting up an experiment(s) to confirm or falsify our belief as to what that agent is.

As you might expect, this has been done, and there is no paper/article/research report in the medical literature identifying any agent of transmission at any time, anywhere. For example, in 70 scientific papers covering 205 experiments on colds and flu, no contagion was observed. Multiple experiments in the U.S. on the Spanish flu failed spectacularly to show any contagion. Later experiments in the U.K. also failed to demonstrate flu contagion. Elsewhere, healthy people in isolation 'caught' the flu. (Don't take my word for it; do your own research, (and not just the flu, any 'communicable disease'), find the papers, read the 'Methods' sections to ensure there are valid control experiments, etc, find the agent of transmission...best of luck.)

It would seem that the hypothesis of contagion has been falsified (refuted). A true scientist would need to abandon the contagion hypothesis and explore other causes of why people get sick. No one denies that people get sick; the tough question is 'Why?' Or maybe it's not so tough. Of note, scurvy was once thought to be contagious. Was it?

PS: Can we still be friends? :)

And thank you, of course!! I am always very interest in an honest comparison of notes. after all, all we can do is be honest about our search for truth, and then things work!!

We can be friends even if we disagree, it would be crazy to only be friends with the people we agree with on everything. I greatly appreciate your sincerity! Aaaand, we disagree. In my opinion, the scientific method available to me, i.e. the evidence of my eyes, shows and proves beyond any doubt that contagion exists. Living beings pass energy to one another, and sometimes it is in the form of bacteria, fungi, parasites, etc. And sometimes, the latter cause disease. And yes, a perfectly balanced organism is less likely to experience disease no matter what. Is there any part of what I said here that you disagree with? (But if you want to disagree, please look at what I said, not the general talking points?) The argument needs to be hands on :)

Expand full comment

I wouldn't say we pass energy on though we are certainly effected by other's energy fields. If we are looking to solve the riddle of why people become sick together then Dr Hammer and his German New Medicine shows us how.

Believing in viruses despite a total lack of evidence is simply succumbing to blind faith! Pasteur's theories were for the nefarious purposes of creating a market for drugs.

Oh and Pasteur later admitted his mistakes and tried to reverse the damage.

Thank you for this. Anyone with access to a sufficiently effective microscope and verify viruses exist. That they are the primary and fundamental causes of disease is horrifically overly simplistic. It's a great business model though, if you want to transform the general population into a gigantic collection of hypochondriacs eager to partake of your next "injectable prophylactic measure".

I was diagnosed with dementia at the age of 58. A good three years have passed since then, and how am I doing? By the way, I live in Slovenia (Europe), in a small town by the Adriatic Sea. Exactly the same as three years ago, the only difference is that they put a label on me - Demented, that I can't drive a car anymore, I can't do ANY work anymore and that's it!! Of course, the doctor gave me various medicines that were supposed to "help" 😛, I took them for exactly one week and when I I saw their effect and immediately stopped taking them. Now I have downloaded the file where you write about Alzheimer's disease and I will read it. Apart from the fact that I have tinnitus and that I am sometimes more tired, I have no problems at all, but I know very well that I would have had them if I had continued to take those drugs. Thank you for this article and for the links. Greetings from Koper👋

Do you have a theory of Multiple Sclerosis? Asking for a friend...

I have not looked into MS in great detail, my side thought (philosophical thought, not medical advice :) so far has been that it, too, has some features of potentially being an undiagnosed infection, and of course there could be mechanical damage from it as well, and those two work hand in hand and addressing them may require different targeted strategies. In my digging, it seems like things are often synergistic, i.e. improving one's diet (like stopping to eat processed sugar) is good for the body and not so good for many pathogens, and antifungal / antiparasitic substances often have a broad action. But that comes with the caveat that there may be specific things, like for example toxo likes to eat B9, and if the person starts supplementing with B9, and has toxo, it may not be the greatest idea. So ideally, it is good to test for anything possible (if possible). But if that's impossible, it would be trial and error, and ideally, consulting an honest and knowledgable naturopath!

Tessa,

Glad to see we've put the contagion myth to bed. I'm glad I was able to shed some light on the scientific method; I hope you'll find it useful in refuting the abundant pseudoscience that's rampant today.

I must say I wouldn't find sitting under a 5G tower, smoking and drinking very conducive to good health. It certainly wouldn't be the most healthful environment for my bacteria. They are my friends and helpmates. I picked up my first couple of billion of them just a few hours after I was born, and without them I wouldn't have survived; and by the time I was an adult I had about 100 trillion microorganisms in my digestive tract alone.

I won't bore you with all the myriad ways my bacteria keep me healthy, but in general they are part of the healing process and come to my aid, along with parasites, to clean up dead and dying tissue and rid me of toxins. Parasites may even be effective in dealing with metallic poisons. When the situation is corrected, the bacteria settle down, the parasites have no food and go away, obviating the need for parasitic cleansing, which seems to be all the rage these days.

Which brings me to anti-bacterial and anti-parasitic agents (Ivermectin and HCQ are the most popular anti-parasitics at the moment). All of these have many other effects in addition to the ones they are marketed for, so we don't know which effect we are seeing the result of. (Just as an aside, Ivermectin is a known neurotoxin, anti-fertility agent (widely used in Africa), and continued veterinary use in horses and dogs causes neurological problems - seizures/disorientation).

What we do know is that by taking anti-bacterial and anti-parasitics, certain symptoms abate, but we have made ourselves worse by converting an acute healing response into a chronic disease. Same thing happens with anti-inflammatory drugs and steroids. Sure, you feel better, temporarily, but you've only masked the symptoms and short-circuited the healing response.

To answer your question directly, my health is not so precarious as to be perturbed by a few outside bacteria or parasites, from whatever source. In fact, the majority of cells in our bodies are anything but human. We contain over 1,000 known species of co-existing organisms, and many more unknown. Put the hand sanitizer and anti-bacterial mouthwash away; you're outgunned.

Conclusion: Eat nutritious food, drink clean water, get enough sleep, sunlight, fresh air, and exercise. Avoid toxins, especially pharmaceuticals, vaccines, and toxic people. Listen to your body; it is a miraculous self-cleansing, self-regenerating system. It will take care of itself, if you let it and don't abuse it. Enjoy life; quit worrying about 'What if's.'

Cheers.

Dear JC, I completely agree with you about the great benefits of treating our minds and bodies as well as possible. But contagion is not a myth, in my opinion and based on the evidence of my eyes, so we definitely didn't put the notion to bed, we agreed to disagree.

What I am glad about is that we can disagree respectfully and still like each other! There are many things we agree upon, so it's all a joyous process of thinking form the inside, for both of us!

Wow! The evidence of your eyes proves beyond any doubt...? You have obviously never played three-card monte. If you restrict yourself to just the 'evidence' of your eyes, you will miss a lot and remain at the level of medieval investigation.

We have better tools today which have expanded our horizons in ways unimaginable just a short time ago and have opened new worlds invisible to the naked eye. With only the evidence of our eyes how would we explain electricity, radio, television, the internet? Perhaps as witchcraft?

I stand by my statement, backed by scientific, experimental proof, that contagion (the transmission of illness between organisms by microbes or 'viruses') is a myth, a falsehood. To reiterate, there has never been a documented instance in all of medical literature, with literally hundreds of studies, that has shown that sick people can make well people sick.

People do get sick in clusters and can show similar symptoms, but that does not prove contagion. Could they have been exposed to the same toxins, EMF, traumas, even the nocebo effect? An example of the nocebo effect: If you're told you've been exposed to some noxious substance which has certain effects, you will very likely exhibit, to a greater or lesser degree, those effects. If you are then told there was an error and you were not given the substance, but something harmless, the physical effects will disappear as quickly as they appeared. This effect is real, known, observed, proven. You just can't assume contagion by some poison, germ, or virus. You don't know, can't know without experiment. Otherwise you have conflated belief with knowing.

Although we are highly dependent on technology, we are a scientifically illiterate society. We have thinking problem. Beliefs/thoughts, right or wrong, lead to actions, and actions have consequences. A belief in a deadly 'virus' and 'pandemic' led wrong-thinking people to accept poisonous injections, lockdowns, lethal intubations, harmful, useless masking, loss of civil liberties, etc. Some even urged the modern equivalent of witch burning of the unvaxxed, 'for the greater good,' of course.

So, how do we know anything? Do we believe our lying eyes, or modern bone pointing witch 'doctors,' whose mere diagnosis guess can cause illness? Or do we seek truth and real knowledge by means of logic and the scientific method? Your choice.

PS: Can we pass 'energy' to each other in the form of resonance? Could be. But unless we have pocket Star Trek transporters, I'll have to take a hard pass on passing bacteria, fungi and parasites. Yikes!

We can disagree, I see you are passionate about your take on reality, and of course this is your God-given right and duty to think from the inside, just like it is mine!

So what do you think happens if somebody swallows parasite eggs? Do they disappear and not develop into parasites? And if someone has bacteria in saliva (let's say, bacteria that can mess with the host's balanced state of health, get to your brain and cause inflammation, etc), and you kiss that person and get it into your saliva while, say, under stress and sitting next to a 5G tower, do you think the bacteria fail to move into your mouth? If you think that they cannot make home in your mouth and other parts of the body under any circumstance, or that they die on contact with your mouth, please explain why you think that, as it applies to this specific example?

Tessa, you just drive me buggy. :-) Considering all the possible causes of dis-ease, why shouldn't bugs (okay, parasites) be seriously considered? After all there are so many, and too many we don't even know about. When your average GP doctor is looking at an illness from the prospective of what Big Pharma miracle drug closely matches the symptoms (diagnosis for profit), that leaves an awful lot of other causes, as you mentioned, such as toxins, EMF, that haven't been considered. And, your Rockefeller-educated doctor will hand you a prescription, or send you for some expensive test, before he/she will consider alternatives or embarrassingly admit ignorance. An excellent example of your line of thinking is recent discussion of the possibility of cancer being causes by parasites. Thank you for thinking outside of the box.

Don't mean to drive you buggy, FreedomFighter :)

What I think is happening is prep for presenting the establishment version of an admission that fungi and parasites (and bacteria, too) are behind many common "syndromes" of today. I see it starting. What is getting presented is a scary, sensationalist version, it is always fear that they sell, not matter the subject. I think that the problem is very real and massive, and yet of course fear is the last thing we need, we need to do practical things to strengthen and protect ourselves (and there is no one answer that works for everyone, I usually stop reading anyone who keeps pushing for one or two things (that they often sell) that are supposed to universally save everyone from everything. It doesn't work that way, things are far more nuanced! But yeah, it is very buggy, and the point is to protect ourselves and be calm.

Dr Hulda Clark is a person you should read up on. Her theory about parasites is fascinating. She even created a “zapper” for low level current sent through the body to show the door to the little critters. She even found a common parasite in all her cancer patients.

Thank you, Mel! I am aware of her work, I read it years ago and then forgot, then recently looked it up again to see how it developed. I have not fully made up my mind about it. I agree with some parts of it, I don't know if her device works (it might, I just don't know). The news said that she passed away from cancer, which the mainstream people interpreted as a contraction to her work. I really don't know enough to draw any conclusions. In any case, being familiar with her work is good, so thank you for the note! And of course, God bless her soul.
