Do you intentionally misread things into the written word...or is it just by chance ?

I was only trying to tie Lunesta up with lunatic.
So you think its ok to call someone who needs medication or professional medical care a 'lunatic' in such a derogatory manner ?

I guess that I didn't understand the word maddening. I know I say that when I get mad.

Actually that wasn't the point.

How about Chantix? I'll throw that one out there because the name is obvious. I have testimony from people who have taken this and it destroyed their sleep. This drug causes horrendous nightmares that include matters of spiritual significance. The nightmares continue even after they've quit using the drug. There are drugs that produce effects that are not perceptible to the user but they do have a desired effect that the user may or may not be aware of. Have any of you ever taken Chantix.

Some medicine's have side-effects but if they are necessary for your general well-being then you should take them.

It has side effects because it is only moving the curse around.

Medicines do not 'MOVE CURSES' around.
I will then rephrase it for you, so that it sounds good.

Side-effects are a blessing not a curse at all :yes

Im sure it wasnt.
That doesnt mean that it isnt the logical conclusion.
Thats the problem with many fallacious views and their proponents....they are only taking the thought so far and not to any real conclusion.

Oh good grief.
You sound like a guy I know named David H.
Always spiritualizing every single thing in life.

When an old man with high blood pressure, that hasnt been able to be controlled any way but thru medication, has decided that he DOES want to live a few more years to spend with his wife and grandchildren, those side effect are a blessing friend. They mean life.

Thats another problem with false doctrines. They cannot be thankful in EVERY situation.

Have you ever read or heard any stories about anyone dying without fear and full of the Holy Ghost? People who end their life miserably ill and are still full of joy and hope for the place that's home. Because we are only pilgrims here we look to a better place.


Yes, people fear and do all they can to cling to life. I knew a man with cancer that spent hours in the hospital taking chemotherapy and such, but he still passed away miserably. We need to put their trust in the Lord that all things will work out to good for them that love Him and pray everyday for health and if we should become ill then we still have to trust God that He will lead us the right way, even if it's toward the exit.

No. I don't think that.
 
"There will be in the next generation or so a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude and producing dictatorship without tears so to speak. Producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them, but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel by propaganda, or brainwashing, or brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological methods. And this seems to be the final revolution."- Aldous Huxley, Tavistock Group, California Medical School, 1961


There is something for you to look into.
 
That's all you got. Medication has done much to destroy this country and that's all you've got.
