Google’s parent company Alphabet is seeking EPA approval to release 64 million bacteria-infected mosquitoes across Florida and California. The male mosquitoes carry Wolbachia bacteria which makes them unable to reproduce when they mate with wild females, slowly wiping out disease-carrying mosquito populations. Biggest open-air biological experiment in US history and nobody voted on it.
Pfizer gave over 13,000 women disabling brain tumors with their birth control injections used by 25% of women.
A MASSIVE study of 61 million women found Depo-Provera shots increases risk of meningioma by 143%.
Criminal enterprise Pfizer now faces a TSUNAMI of lawsuits.
Explain to me why our electric bills never decrease, even though we have swapped to all LED lights, energy star appliances, built massive solar and wind farms.
AWFUL: A Quebec physician says parents should be able to euthanize disabled newborn babies.
He says parents “should have the opportunity” to have their newborn killed under Canada’s MAiD euthanasia regime.
This is absolutely insane.
Study shows Christ centered marriages last longer. Data from Harvard reveals that couples who share prayer and regular church attendance see their divorce risk cut by up to 50%.
Renowned researcher Shaunti Feldhahn similarly proves that devoted, churchgoing couples experience a stability the world ignores.
Reject the cultural myth that "half of all marriages fail", that statistic changes entirely when Jesus is the foundation.
A marriage sustained by Christ will endure.
Did you know that if you put 100 black ants and 100 red ants together in a jar, they usually coexist peacefully? But if you shake the jar hard, they immediately turn on each other and start killing one another. The red ants see the black ants as enemies, and the black ants see the red ants as enemies. Yet the real enemy is the one shaking the jar.
The same thing happens in human society. Before we turn on each other, we should stop and ask ourselves: who is shaking the jar?
In 1999, Merck launched a new anti-inflammatory drug called Vioxx. A triumph of marketing. Easier on the stomach than ibuprofen, the adverts said. Suitable for arthritis, back pain, period pain, anything that ached. By 2003 it was earning Merck around 2.5 billion dollars a year and had been prescribed to roughly 80 million people worldwide.
Internal Merck documents would later show that the company had evidence by the year 2000 that Vioxx significantly increased the risk of heart attack and stroke.
They knew. They had the data. They had emails between executives discussing how to manage the data. In one memorable email, a Merck scientist describes what to do about researchers raising concerns: "We may need to seek them out and destroy them where they live."
Vioxx was withdrawn in 2004. A peer-reviewed analysis published in The Lancet by an FDA whistleblower estimated that the drug had caused between 88,000 and 140,000 serious cardiovascular events in the United States. Tens of thousands of people died.
Merck paid roughly five billion dollars in settlements. The drug had earned them more than that.
Nobody went to prison. The company is still trading. Its shareholders did not lose money. Its executives did not lose their jobs. The medical journals that published the favourable trials were slow to retract anything, and in several cases never did.
The doctors who prescribed Vioxx were not told the data had been concealed. The patients were not told either. They are simply not here any more.
Every time someone asks why I'm sceptical of the next blockbuster drug being pushed through with thin trial data and aggressive marketing, I think of Vioxx.
Look it up. It isn't a conspiracy. It's a court record.
