RFK JR. SPEECH AND REALITY OF LIFE
I read a post by, and was listening to a speech given by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. where he said that no stone would be left unturned in their effort to end chronic disease.
Personally, I tend to be a realist. As such, while Kennedy’s speech was a very nice-sounding, sincere-sounding, positive message, I think it is naive to believe that they will ever truly end chronic disease. I think that may be why in his post, Kennedy says that they will make an effort. I suspect that he already knows in his heart that it is a next to impossible task to overcome chronic disease due to a variety of reasons. I would like to mention one of those reasons.
As has been said many times before, the goal of the pharmaceutical industry — and I would add the health insurance industry, as well as a certain sector of the medical profession — is NOT really to cure anyone of anything.
After all, they don’t make a profit off of healthy people, do they? So their goal is in large part to simply help you to manage your pain, and to endure your illnesses. The fact of the matter is that they want and need lifetime customers who remain dependent on — and addicted to — their drugs.
My friends, let’s be honest here. That is precisely how they earn their profit — by keeping you sick and helping to drag along from one illness to the next — and a lot of corrupt doctors go right along with it, because they probably get kickbacks.
Seriously think about this, my friends. We are now at the first quarter of the 21st century, and yet look how long some of these chronic illnesses have been with us with no cure in sight, even though they have been promised in some cases for literally decades. Isn’t it time to wake up to the truth, as ugly as it is?
But aside from all of the above, pain, sickness, and eventually death, are a natural part of life, which were first introduced into the world through the sin of Adam and Eve.
While some people may not agree with me, I believe that sin has a physical effect on our bodies. I believe that sin may possibly even have a negative effect on our genetic code so that we wear out, grow old and eventually die.
The bottom line is that as the Bible plainly informs us, we are all appointed to die. There is no escaping it, no matter what we do. Physical death is a part of God’s plan. But thank God that there is hope of life after death through faith in the atoning Sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:”
Hebrews 9:27, KJV
“And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.”
John 10:28, KJV
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16, KJV
