Well put, Mike. "M. G. Devour" <mdev...@eskimo.com> wrote: Hi folks,
Here in the US, in order for doctors to function professionally on any basis at all they must participate in a system that is extremely controlled -- many of us would say thoroughly corrupt. No matter their motivation and character, that system severely restricts what they are permitted to do, and, if they want to be able to eat, they will not buck the system. Economic realities combine with education, peer pressure and legal/licensing authorities to complete their domestication. By *our* definitions, "good doctors" are remarkable for their scarcity. There are the few who listen and cooperate as best they can. A rare handful even abandon conformity alltogether. Treasure these! I know a few of us can honestly say we have known a *good* doctor or two. Most of you can honestly say that you have not. We even have, and have had in the past, a few physicians in our group. You'll seldom hear from them because it seems that a few people always fail to distinguish friend from foe, and they'd rather avoid the unwarranted and vicious attacks earned for them by their choice of profession and the actions of their peers. Sometimes, despite their good intentions, those few doctors who've joined us couldn't help coming across as know-it-alls or failed to recognize the intelligence and wisdom of the local experts and the limitations of their own training, and alienated themselves. So, on occasion, both sides have contributed to the failure to get along. What I want to say is this: Our mission is, first, informing interested individuals of the value of colloidal silver and related ideas, and second, helping people with whatever health challenges they face. In the interest of fulfilling that mission, please restrain yourself enough not to indulge in vicious, hostile, totally unqualified, blanket condemnation of *all* doctors. Hate the mainstream all you want, but don't drive away those who want to learn. Allow for the existence of the exceptional few... *every* time you make a statement about "doctors." It doesn't take many words -- "most," "nearly all" -- to tranform the environment from hostile to merely unfriendly. I think basic fairness demands as much of us. Our mission certainly does.
