Hey HeadShakes, Here's my update! I'm the one who posted the original message. And my campaign results are in! I used internet marketing to try to warn people of mercury fillings...and the results.........(drum roll!)....the results are....PEOPLE SUCK! Me trying to save lives and help people = people getting mad at me..humiliating me..laughing..and telling me off. I think that it's not worth it right now for me toto try to help people and then to get the grief from them. They will see one day!!! I warned them..suckers! I know what you mean. In the mid 90's, my business partner (Laura) and I joined a political party that was exposing the corruption in government because we thought people would want to know. Come to find out, we learned one of the greatest lessons of our life: "People believe what they want to believe."One day, after two years of dedicating all of our spare time to this cause, we sat down and said, "Why are we doing this? Nobody wants to know or even cares." We finally decided to go into business for ourselves. From that experience, I learned that only a very small percentage of people accept the truth via evidence. Most people decide what they believe based on their emotions or personal desires. Amazingly, this is what the Bible had been telling me all along. Now I understood how true it is. Don't give up though. The work of doing good—even if people don't want it—is a good thing because there are a few that will respond, and these few are very valuable. Keep up the good work. Perhaps you would like to help participate in the "Educate The Dentists" project. See the notice at the top of the list of messages on this forum for more information.
