POINTS to consider and reflect:

No matter how educated we make ourselves to be, how many books we read, or how progressive we may prove ourselves, nevertheless, we see that in the area of health and age, we see some clear signs that something is wrong very wrong. For examples:

Terminal & treacherous diseases such as Cancer, Diabetes, Heart Attack and Stroke or Cardio-Vascular Diseases have continued to victimize people, with people not knowing how to prevent or spot them in advance before its too late; In the past, these diseases afflicted only the rich and the old; now they have come down to victimize the helpless poor and little children because the practices or way of life as well as the food of the rich and poor, adult and children today are more or less now similar, e.g., made from or laced with chemicals. The assault to life and health has even come closer, that is, at the pro-creation and pregnancy stages, where more and more men have become sterile and women barren or experiencing miscarriages; or,

Equally worse, children being born with many serious defects and frightening deformities;

The Disabled Sector today, (with members now across many age groups, from infants to youths to adults, not just elderly and victims of accidents but more so resulting from debilitating diseases that spare no one, poor or rich, young or old) has become societys biggest sector, whether organized or not, bigger than Womens, bigger than Workers Associations, bigger than the Association of Senior Citizens who now compose only a small part of the Disabled Sector, and mind you, this Disabled Sector whose unlisted members are hiding at homes, is now the fastest growing sector in the country and the world, because, for example, statistics revealed that some 144 persons become paralyzed everyday due to Cardio-Vascular Diseases, that is heart attack and stroke. We have not included those who become members of the Disabled Sector due to amputation due to diabetes. How many of
2

them, everyday? We do not have the number but we have an idea how many from our own observation. Membership of the Senior Citizen which depends on who reaches the age 60 or 65 is slow, whereas membership of the Disabled Sector is very fast because it does not now depend on years, but days or hours! Hour by hour, new disabled member comes out from the hospital or from its mothers womb! Increasing numbers become paralyzed or amputated or born with defects, or are diagnosed to have cancers now on a per hour basis!

Cancer, the latest news says, is now like fever becoming common in the neighborhood! This is a serious fact that we need to consider to conclude that something is wrong very wrong. The number of Terminal diseases has increased not only with AIDS and STDs but with the emergence of new diseases such as Parkinsons and a host of mental illnesses such as Alzheimers and Autism. Advances in medical science, inventions of new equipment do not - have not led to the stopping or prevention of these diseases; they only and only - help in the diagnosis; The medical cost is so high that in the United States, for instance, the No. 1 cause of family bankruptcy is not business, but medical expenses! According to the study of medical records in the U.S.A., 97% of chemotherapy has failed; patients died and they died financially broke. The maintenance medicine provided by big Pharma for CVDs (Cardio-Vascular Diseases), cancer or diabetes sufferers has not led to the healing of the disease or at least improvement of health, but rather, to mere maintenance or for many, worse, to downward slide oftentimes towards complication and eventually to death! Increasing number of findings in the USA show that this approach of silencing (or the shutting up or undermining of) the symptoms. Symptoms are God-sent because they are signals or advanced information or warnings to the patient and family that something deeper inside the body is wrong. Gods purpose? So, by early attention, we wont fall into worse condition. This worlds system of symptom killing has led to patients and their families assuming that all is well, that nothing is wrong inside, thus, giving the
3

underlying disease the chance or opportunity or time to worsen, up to, say, stage 4, when nothing, or almost nothing, can be done anymore to heal it.

This habit or practice of ignoring the signs or symptoms leads to the worsening of diseases, thus, has led to very expensive medical expenses, not only from hospital bills but also when the victim has become disabled for the rest of his/her life, becoming, (sorry to say, although the members do not wish to admit it), a liability and burden to the family! The people have been deceived by the Pharmaceutical industry that the warning sign system installed by God in the human body (which doctors call symptoms) and which often comes in the form of headaches, body pains, to help the patient get alerted and informed in advance of some underlying wrong with one of his body organs so he can act in advance towards healing we have been tricked to believe that these body alarms are the sickness, therefore, are the ones to be treated. What we did not know was and is that: the bodys information system via the nervous system is silenced shut so that, after taking the synthetic pain relievers, the body no longer feels the pain, the patient assumes that he has no more illness, while the underlying disease continue to worsen, spread until it reaches stage 4, and it will be time for doctors and the big Pharma to make huge money by suggesting operation, e.g., removal/replacement of the affected/neglected organs (transplant), or chemo and radiation at which stage it would be oftentimes too late, or too difficult and extremely too expensive to regain health and the patient would eventually die, leaving his/her family financially broke! Money lost, life lost. There is no wiser way than what is expressed in the old proverb: An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. They bodys warning signs (symptoms) works well with this as it informs the person early enough before he becomes a patient. Again, may I repeat a thousand times: The symptom (headache, stomach ache, toothache, fever, inflammation, rashes, wound, or body pain) is the information sent by the affected organ to its owner (the person) via its information system, called the nervous system, to tell the owner that something is wrong beneath and needs fixing. If you shut up if you silence
4

turn off - that alarm system by using big Pharmas pain reliever, etc., it is like putting a tape on your babys mouth so he would stop, or would not be heard, crying, but you would not know until it would be too late. Symptom treatment is also like seeing a smoke coming out of your bedroom and ignoring it, until your house burnt. When theres a smoke, theres a fire, the old proverb says. It cant be prevented by ignoring. The fire, which is the underlying cause of the smoke, must be put out and your house will be saved! The Pharmaceutical-medical industry has worked against the age-old wisdom of our forefathers expressed in the just quoted proverbs. The big Pharma is making us into fools! And as fools, we have fallen deep into their money trap! The medicine makers got rich, the doctors got rich, the drugstore owners got rich, the once health and active people become their mass customers and patients! What a unique world it is where all people are customers and patients! In this situation, who is right, who is wrong? Who is smarter? Who is cunning and crafty? Who is gullible and nave? You better see to it or you will join the growing number of families who are becoming both sick and bankrupt!

Saddest thing of all, THE EMOTIONAL COSTS AND THE AMOUNT OF TEARS nobody has done a study yet or made measurement to it! So far. In the spiritual aspect, or commandment and will of God, the following facts and Scriptures prove beyond doubt that todays Pharmaceutical System is not Gods system, hence, sin:
o

First, the word pharmaceutical and pharmacy derive from the Greek root word Pharmakeia, and their drug or medicine pharmakon. See Collegiate Webster Dictionary. Secondly, the word Pharmakeia is translated as sorcery in the Old King James Version and magic arts in the New International Version of the New Testament in the following verses:

Rev 9:21 [niv]Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts [Greek pharmakeia], their sexual immorality or their thefts. [kjv]Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries [Greek pharmakeia], nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
5

Rev 18:23 (This is addressed to the Babylonian System of business and medicine:) [niv]The light of a lamp will never shine in you again. The voice of bridegroom and bride will never be heard in you again. Your merchants were the world's great men. By your magic spell [Greek pharmakeia] all the nations were led astray. [kjv]And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries [Greek pharmakeia] were all nations deceived. Rev 21:1 [niv]Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. [kjv]And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. Rev 21:7 [niv]He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. [kjv]He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. Rev 21:8 [niv]But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts [Greek pharmakos, pharmakeus], the idolaters and all liars--their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death." [kjv]But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers [Greek pharmakos, pharmakeus], and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Rev 22:14 [niv]"Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. [kjv]Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. Rev 22:15 [niv]Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts [Greek pharmakos, pharmakeus], the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood. [kjv]For without are dogs, and sorcerers [Greek pharmakos, pharmakeus], and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

Third, in Strongs Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible, the most authoritative Concordance in Christendom, reveals that the biblically prohibited ancient practice called sorcery is Pharmakeia in Greek; the spell-giving potion or drug or poison is Pharmakon, and the words sorcerers and druggists are called pharmakos or pharmakeus in the Greek language. Hence, todays Pharmakeia or pharmaceutical or pharmacy is the sorcery of ancient time. Ancient sorcery has been renamed pharmacy and pharmaceutical!

Fourth, the Bible in various places spoke of the evil ones (wolves) appearing in sheeps clothing, hence, color white -- white clothes, white uniforms. Question: Who are using white clothes today? In the medical industry? In religion? There, you have the hint. God warned us already that Satan and his servants appear to us, not as ugly monsters, but as angels of light as handsome men and beautiful women wearing white colors! Im not saying devils I am saying servants of evil; hence, otherwise good people can be servants of the evil, when they are in a deceived state, not knowing who their master really is or who are they are serving. Fifth, Sorcery has been prohibited by God since the Old Testament time.

Lev 19:26 [niv]" 'Do not eat any meat with the blood still in it. " 'Do not practice divination or sorcery. [kjv]Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times.
o

New Testament verses on sorcery are against sorcery (Pharmakon/pharmakeia). If we get involved in sorcery (pharmaceutical medication system), we will not be saved, because we trust poison, not Christ or His Word and way. Revelation 9:21; 18:23; 21:1, 7-8; 22:14-15. In Webster and other authoritative dictionaries, you will see that pharmaceutics, pharmaceuticals, and pharmacy are derived from the Greek word pharmakeia and is defined as the use of poisons renamed as drugs, used as medicine to produce magic effect. We will discuss these key words here regarding Pharmedicine or Chemedicine (chemical medicine): theres the poison aspect, and theres the magic aspect. What is poison? It kills but there are two kinds of poison: one which kills instantly or immediately and the other kills slowly, e.g., over the years. What is magic? Magic means here-today-gonetomorrow, temporary, short-term, short-lived. So, the key words with todays Pharmakeia/Pharmakon are: poisons, drugs, medicine, magic. These drugs or medicines have two effects: one as magic, the other as poison. When does one takes place, and when the other? It can be credited as
7

Lucifers genius for having arranged magic to precede poison, and not the other way around; for had poisoning preceded magic, that is, had their medicine poisons us immediately instantly then, their deception would have been discovered long time ago and resisted. But they must have figured it out, e.g., make their medicine produce magic (seeming healing effect, for that is what their pain reliever appears to be!) as short-to-medium term, hence, appealing to the people who in their illness, yearn for comfort and relief, then, put poisoning in the longterm (e.g., 30 to 50 years), hence, difficult to detect or establish a link between cause and effect. From our perspective today, it is now easy to see how did they do that they simply put smaller doses of poison so that it would not surely kill us during the short-andmedium range of treatment! Lets now discuss magic.

MAGIC AS THE QUICK PAIN RELIEVER, not the real cure of underlying disease. In almost all instances, Pharmedicines do not heal the disease, merely silence the symptoms, e.g., relieve the pain. This is oftentimes mistaken by the nave as healing/curing, when in reality the drug/medicine merely silence the cry of the effected/suffering body organs or parts, the cry of which is in the form of pain (headache, stomach ache, etc.) and other symptoms/early signs (skin rashes, boil, wound, etc.). So, the underlying disease is covered ignored neglected hence, persists and, in the long run, finds the time to worsen because it was not treated, but rather ignored when it sent repeated signals through the symptoms. LONG-TERM POISON, no lasting healing effect. The problem is in the long-term: these pharmedicines actually poison your healthy cells, tissues and organs in the long-term, or over the years, say, 20 to 40 years, because these are actually poisons from animal and human venom, chemicals and poisonous plants. That is why it is revealed by investigators via the internet that drugs or pharma medicines do produce up to or as many as eleven (11) other diseases
8

(irresponsibly labeled as side effects to make it sound harmless). The burden of proof is in the side of the big Pharmaceutical companies; they are constrained to present to us proofs that it is not true and that they are innocent. But in my case, I am inclined to believe, that in cooperation with the food and drink manufacturing and other industries, the Pharmaceutical industry is a major cause of todays increase of illnesses both in number and severity. You will have only to look at the drugstores today, and you will see that customers are increasing every day; there is no end of the line. Also if you go to hospitals, you will be shocked as I was recently to see, that, unlike some 20 or 30 years ago, hospitals today have become like crowded market places where there is almost no more space to move or to walk! Not only rooms are lacking but also beds and doctors and nurses!! O my God! Just go out and observe the drugstores and hospitals today!

There is a new trend today which is just being detected read: documented and reported: doctors and nurses are getting sick! This is expected if they themselves lack sleep and rest, are stressed due to the abundance of patients with their different needs and demands, quite often times emergency in nature, or probably by the germs they are dealing with in their patients, question: whose body would not bog down? The doctors and nurses are simply shrugging and wiping it out by taking pills or medicine or vitamins supplement, but nevertheless, it is showing. In a recent US study, it is revealed that doctors and nurses too are not shielded from the diseases they are treating or trying to cure! So imagine, a world where the sick are being treated by the sick?! It resembles the world about which Jesus said the blind being guided by the blind.

So, going back, we see the effects of todays drugs or medicines are not permanent healing, but (a) of a here-today, gone-tomorrow short-lived relief and needs to be repeated (additional doses, often on daily basis, hence, additional sales for the big Pharma) and
9

(b) future debilitating diseases resulting from the longterm poisoning. What kind of future big Pharma is creating for us? Under this trend, we can foresee a very bleak and dark future where our country will be led by disabled President, disabled Governors, disabled senators, disabled lawmakers, disabled citizens protected by disabled policemen; our factories filled by disabled employees, our army composed of disabled soldiers and officers; we ride on a bus driven by a disabled driver; our homes composed of disabled father, mother and children. This is not a faraway prediction; it is already a trend as the number of disabled in the family and society continues to increase before our befuddled eyes. Disabled teeth, disabled brain, disabled mind, disabled hand, disabled feet, disabled nose, disabled ears, disabled eyes, disabled genitals, disabled intestines, disabled liver, disabled gallbladder, disabled heart, disabled knees, disabled legs, disabled body. What else? Disabled lungs. Disabled kidneys! You name it. Or sold out kidneys: one rich patient (usually from the USA) buying the healthy kidney of a poor donor (usually from the Philippines).
o

The scenario is saddening to imagine if we do not do something to reverse or stop this trend. Decrease of capacity to work and do other things will surely lead us to greater poverty if we dont do something to reverse the trend.
o

o Let us take for example those who die from Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) like heart attack or stroke, and follow what agony the victim families suffer, to wit: What is the sad (death) statistics in the Philippines regarding CVDs? Consistent No. 1 killer of Filipinos for decades already: CVDs, especially heart disease and stroke 6 persons die of CVDs every hour or 144 every day or 51, 840 a year. CVDs require years to kill a person. Now, calculate further the hardships of the families affected if they who died are the fathers (or mothers),
10

thus, make more helpless widows and orphans. Because CVDs usually kill the parents first in time when they are still very much needed to provide for and support the family, CVDs are truly one of the hidden invisible causes of family poverty and hardships in our country today! CVDs produce many widows and orphans who are the most vulnerable and helpless group in this world. Therefore, throughout the Holy Scriptures, we can read that they are special to Gods heart and God calls all Christians to care of them and extend help. So, can we see now the future which Pharmakeia/Pharmakon is creating for us. Unfortunately, this future is not centuries far away; it is beginning to manifest we now see CVD-made or cancer-made widows and orphans. Diabetes-made disabled. And the likes. The future is beginning now! We can see now increasing number of families going bankrupt because of these terminal diseases promoted by the gang of chemical industries, agricultural industries, food and drink manufacturing industries, cigarette industries, pharmaceutical industry, and others. This future will get worse and full-blown unless we do something to stop or reverse the situation. Let me hasten to say: It is easy to do all we have to do is quickly abandon Pharmaceutical industry, stop patronizing their products, stop using their medicines! The sad Conclusion is and nothing else: These points show us beyond the shadow of doubt that this Health Care System, designed by the Big Pharmaceutical and Medical Industry that had been started in the USA in the 1800s and has been in operation in the Philippines for about a century THIS PHARMACEUTICAL & MEDICAL SYSTEM IS, BY ITS FRUITS AND COSTS, NOT ONLY FAR INFERIOR TO OUR ANCESTORS ORGANIC FOOD, (without chemicals) AND HERBAL MEDICINE AND A HARDWORKING WAY OF LIFE, IT IS ALSO NOW CLEARLY SEEN TO BE WRONG, THEREFORE, IT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED OR REPLACED.

As leaders in our families and communities, or LGUs, as well as in some organizations, it behooves us to DO SOMETHING. OUR MOVE. OUR PLATFORM OUR PLAN The Proposed Alternative Health Care System: Nutrition and Herbdicine and Wordicine. Nutrition = food and drink which: are cleansed by the sunlight inside the leaf (Photocatharsis); are made by the sunlight inside the natural plant in its leaf (Photosynthesis); are not made by chemical plant, the counterfeit, fake, artificial plant; are not altered/processed by chemicals; contain no chemical but nutrients, oxygen, and other elements of life and health. Herbdicine = Herbal Medicine. Wordicine = Word Medicine, meaning: Teachings and advices on Healthful Living, preventive of diseases and disabilities. Wise Word of the elders and the experienced, and Wise Word of God. All these words as preventive, as well as curative/heal-ative.
