Russ, I think the word evidence gets thrown around so much that it has lost its meaning.

Specially those videos you keep posting. Any documentary can be biased to any point of view depending on the source.
When I say evidence I mean data, factual proof. Exactly what a judge would need to incarcerate someone. Those videos show no specifics. Many have interviews with opinionated views drawing conclusions for you. And they just mole the idea about something bad someone is doing, but they don't say who, noone is accusing anyone, no signed documents, recordings or tangible proof of people doing bad things.

The fact they are videos tell me they are not reliable. They were made that way for popularity and to gain support as their main objective, and that is not good in the search for the truth. When a scientific experiment is done or a discovery, do you think they post it in a video? No, they need every little blip of data documented and then their research paper is reviewed/studied, and maybe at the end of the line someone will make a video which won't have .01 % of all the data the study had.

Now you just tell me condescendingly I know nothing about the subject because I don't agree with you.

The status of crappy doctors today proofs nothing, and you are using the same kind of arguments in the videos (tell me of something and then extrapolate it to everything else without any proof). Now I don't know if you hold a law degree or not, but when you see these videos ask yourself is this enough to convict people? The answer is clearly no, there is nothing tangible or even suspects or anything.
I agree most doctors today worry more about acute conditions that are deadly instead of chronic conditions. But can you blame them? I mean the symptoms of mercury poisoning blend in with probably hundreds of conditions and apparently is not really deadly. Now since we suffer from it we know mental illness can be torture, but im just showing you both sides of the coin.

And you being a herb researcher is mostly passed known knowledge and data than science (unless you have a lab and you try thousands of new herbs on rats to study their reactions). Herbs have been used for thousands of years and you are just gathering information with trial and error. Sick people who might even not have mercury poisoning try them but there is too many variables and no control groups. We would however be screwed without people like you putting their attentions to chronic illnesses. I am pretty sure this does not apply to you, but chronic conditions are also a business being exploded, and I am pretty sure people around here have bought hundreds of supplements from everywhere on the internet and a very small quantity of them help us. People seem to throw blame around to doctors so easily when they don't help, but when a supplement does not work it seems ok.


Now do not take my thoughts to not believe that the government can do no wrong. Anyone with half a brain can really see it turning on the news in 5 minutes. The war on drugs seems like a war against poor people, and guess I don't even have to touch the war on Iraq.
I do however oppose extreme views such as us being INTENTIONALLY mercury poisoned, or 9/11.
I mean the fact that people will try to cover their to avoid millions of lawsuits due to amalgams is just a side effect of a capitalistic society, but has no proof of secret men in secret room trying to rule the world.

The fact that you believe all of the conspiracy theories (some have to be wrong?) tells me you lost your objectivity and skepticism long ago.
I am curious since you seem so concerned about mind control and you are a devout religious person. I would think religion as a mind controlling tool for the common population would be in your list. I mean how many times on the road to the war in Iraq did Bush said God talked to him in his speeches? Probably hundreds of times.
