Chemo Therapy is A Money-Making Scheme!

The greed existent within Human Beings on Earth is so extensive that most of what we take for granted is in fact harmful and exists/ is done in the interest of only a few, to make profit.
In the documentary ‘Healing Cancer’(*) the industries who produce treatment for cancer are being exposed for doing just that. Most cancer patients are treated with chemotherapy to reduce the tumors that have manifested in the patients’ bodies. This chemotherapy is nothing else but poison – a highly dangerous poison that basically affects every organ and system in and of the body – causing many patients to lose functionality, become incredibly ill, or even create more cancer! What has been said about cancer patients is this: “If the cancer doesn’t kill them, the treatment will.”

What you’re not told as a cancer patient is that chemotherapy works as well as a sugar pill, or a placebo. When showing the statistics of trials, they present the numbers in a deceptive way, through using relative percentages, instead of absolute percentages. Relative percentages of benefit can be as high as 80%, while the absolute percentage can be less than 1%. What determines the actual effectiveness of a treatment is the absolute percentage, but that is conveniently left out. Chemotherapy – in absolute percentages is actually as effective or even less effective than a sugar pill.

So – chemotherapy being a poison that pushes the body into a spiral of dysfunction and illness without doing what it is meant to do (treat cancer) – why is chemotherapy still being used? The answer is sickeningly simple: because of greed. The medication for chemotherapy is extremely expensive and is thus being kept in circulation because it makes some people extremely wealthy.

Treating cancer patients with chemotherapy is simply an extreme form of abuse – to milk a sick person from its money – redirecting the money from the masses to the few elites in this world.
This bullshit has to stop! How deep a hole do you have in your soul, thinking you can fill it with millions of dollars at the expense of the human race, the animal kingdom and Earth in its entirety? It’s time for humanity to stop and get back to basics. Who the hell are we? What is it we really want? What do we want the world to be for the children to come?

The answer to the questions that really matter aren’t solved with greed. Unfortunately, before humanity will be able and willing to change its behaviour as a group – greed and fear of not having any money to survive have to be dealt with. Therefore, I support an Equal Money System wherein each one’s basic needs are provided for unconditionally – from birth to death – where a dignified life is a given – where healthcare is actually truly about caring for people and not scaring them, or even killing them.

If you feel the same way or agree we need a drastic change – check out ‘What the FAQ is an Equal Money System?’ to get a clearer picture of what’s possible.

PS: for cancer patients – time to take responsibility. Do some research on changing to a plant-based diet to assist your body in re-establishing a healthy immune system. Your body is capable of destroying cancer if you provide your body with what it needs to be effective. As a rule of thumb – always do your homework before you agree to ingest poison. It’s become a belief that doctors know best and that a ‘regular person’ isn’t capable of understanding the body, what’s wrong with it or what’s best for it. But it’s actually merely a question of taking the time and looking it up. If your life is on the line – what do you have to lose?

Who will stop me from just living like a bum off of all the people and just travel around the world? who says that many others will not have the same idea as me?

Understand that the main reason why people within the current money system will be inclined to give money to bums on the street, is due to guilt. Because they see that they earn money through the same system that deprives others of it, but because everyone is afraid to lose what they have, nothing is being done and the system is allowed to keep running. That is why people experience guilt when seeing bums, because they know that through their silence and continued participation in the system, they are keeping those human beings trapped in that state of barely even surviving.

In an Equal Money System, each one will have undeniable rights and access to what is required for each one to sustain themselves – and this applies to each and every single human being. Therefore, the system each one participates in doesn’t exclude anyone and your having doesn’t mean someone else’s lack as it does within the current system. Therefore, there will be no more guilt and thus no more inclination for people to give what they require to someone else. Every person has access to what they require, if Pune Beggarsomeone refuses to use those goods, then that’s the person’s problem and responsibility. Currently, bums are simply unable to do something about their situation. In an Equal Money System, being a bum will be something you do unto yourself through not claiming the goods you have right and access to – but then you shouldn’t expect any support from other beings, because you’re deliberately harming yourself.

So, if you try to be a bum in an Equal Money System to try and spite the system, you’ll only really be spiting yourself. If a person however, is troubled within and therefore feels that he doesn’t deserve what’s best for himself and as a result starts refusing to claim the goods and services he requires for a dignified life, the environment will pick up on it and intervene. Such a person will then be given the necessary psychological assistance to better his relationship with himself until he is ready to embrace what is best for himself as a dignified life.

So, no - you won’t be able to live off of other people, because you will have no means of manipulation.

Who will create jobs? Will I need a job to live?

You won’t need to have a job in an Equal Money System. According to each beings’ requirements, you will receive credits with which you can acquire that which you need to sustain yourself.

Remember that in its most basic form, economy is what has to do with the distribution of resources to satisfy needs and wants. In our current economic system, you require to earn money through working, so that, with the money you earned, you can get access to any goods and services with which you can satisfy these needs and wants – whereby not everyone receives an equal amount of money, works equally hard and where not everyone is able to get a job that will get them money to then get to the goods and services they need.

In an Equal Money System, we simply manage the distribution of resources according to the principle of what is best for all – instead of having to work for your survival you are simply being given access to what you need. Because of how the world currently works, we’ve become accustomed to the belief that we need to ‘earn our living’ – but really, that is only one of the answers to the questions of how to get the resources from the Earth to the people, and one that has proven to have many harmful consequences.

Harvesting-equal-moneyTherefore, there will be no necessity for people to have a job through which to earn money and provide for themselves. In terms of providing the necessary goods and services to sustain the population, this ‘work’ will be done by youngsters after graduation and who will for a few years of their lives (about 4 years) dedicate themselves to providing the goods and services that are required to sustain the population. Remember that many products will no longer be produced within an Equal Money System as they are either abusive or were just produced for the sake of making money, instead of being an actual contribution to the quality of a person’s life. Only the best products will be produced and it will be produced in construction-equal-moneythe most effective and efficient way, which years of experience and know-how of big corporations will allow us to do. Products will be made to last, which will relieve a lot of the pressure on production. Also, currently, so much is being wasted and thrown away each day, it is disgraceful. Such waste is not necessary and does not serve any practical purpose. Within this context, you see that it is quite possible for a small part of the population to provide for the whole.

Will we pay for entertainment and if so will the entertainers receive wages in an Equal Money System?

There will be no payments or wages within an Equal Money System. Entertainment will be on a ‘give and receive’ basis, where those who enjoy to provide entertainment, will do so as an expression of themselves and those who enjoy to watch or listen to music, acting, sports, etc. will be able to receive this entertainment.

There is no need for entertainers to receive money to do what they enjoy doing. entertainmentThey are already provided for through the system. This will allow artists and sports players the freedom of expression that is currently lacking in the world. Have a look at the songs that are being produced and their video-clips – the songs are no longer expressions of beings, they are a string of words, sounds and tones as calculated impulses designed to have people want to buy the product. Artists have producers to answer to, who, due to money, have a great influence over their work. Professional sports-players are under constant pressure and push themselves and their bodies to ridiculous bounds, because of money. Within an Equal Money System, entertainment will find itself again: from a money-making industry it will simply be all about having fun and expressing oneself again.

In terms of the entertainment itself and what is acceptable as a form of entertainment and what not – this will be determined according to the principle of what is best for all. Activities that are seen as entertainment that have a high cost in terms of harm that is done unto the environment, animals or other human beings, will no longer exist.

And God Created Genetic Disorders

 A few months ago, a few of the chicken eggs hatched on the farm and we had a bunch of new chicks to look after. We first placed them in a brooder-cage, but when they started digging their way out of there, we took them in our house until we’d be able to fix the cage. And so, they raced around in our house, having the time of their life. All of them, but one.

This one little orange chick would only take a few steps at a time and then drop down and just sit there, resting. We had a look at her legs and saw that her feet and legs had just gotten a growth-spurt. We figured she was adapting to her new legs and how it affected her body and balance. orangeBut after a few weeks, she still was only able to stumble and spent most of her time sitting or laying down. She was eating, drinking and shitting just fine, so there was no indication of an illness she was suffering from. We gave her all the support we were able to think of, but nothing helped. Actually, it looked like matters only got worse. Her legs looked and felt like rubber – there was no structure or strength in them and they were simply unable to keep her upright.

We then did some research and found out that she was suffering from a genetic disorder. The chick was suffering from a protein-deficiency and in order to be able to grow her feathers – which requires a lot of protein – her body was extracting the proteins from her bones and re-allocating them to feather-growth. This resulted in her bones feeling like rubber and her not being able to stand or walk.

We immediately placed her on a cat-food diet and after a good month of high level protein intake, she started first being able to hold herself up, then started taking a few steps at a time and eventually was able to walk and even run.

Now – why would an almighty God create an existence where this type of genetic disorders occur?? How much effort would it take – for a God – to correct the genetic design of chickens, so that such suffering doesn’t exist?? Because – remember, if we hadn’t been there and if it had just been the chick and her mother, the mother would have abandoned or killed her – because she was too weak to make it.

How can God make such stupid mistakes – where a baby’s body starts eating away at its own bones to be able to grow feathers? You cannot possibly tell me that this is God’s way of punishing the chick – what did the chick ever do to him? She was born with this. She didn’t even have a chance to live – how sinful could she be to deserve the death penalty before she’s even gotten out of her egg properly?

And this applies to all genetic disorders. Why do children have to pay for the sins of their parents? If parents created their own disorders through acting in sin – well, maybe I would understand God not stepping in and saying “sort out your own shit”. But to pass on these disorders through the DNA to the children who haven’t even set foot on this Earth yet? What the hell is that all about??

If God were forgiving – he would make sure all children are born in forgiveness – he would make sure that no child has to pay for what his or her parents did, or their grandparents, or the the generation before that and before that and before that! I mean – if God were forgiving, it’s the least he could do!

Since genetic disorders currently run rampant – both within the animal kingdom as in human beings – you have to wonder: where is God in all this? And if God were to exist, can he really be good, loving and forgiving? Nope. Not with the catastrophe of a world that we live in today.

No – if God exists, he is not a good, loving and forgiving God. If God exists, he is a spiteful sadist who enjoys to enslave beings for eternity without giving them a solution to get themselves out, dooming them to unending suffering. Hm, sounds much like the Devil and…. hm, sounds a lot like human beings too. If human beings are made in the image and likeness of God, then we reflect the true nature of God. And the true nature of human beings can be seen within what human beings have created and manifested.

Have a look at the current money system – it works with passing on the debts of the parents to the children as well. Children are not born in forgiveness because not all children have equal opportunities. Dependent on where you live, who your parents are and who their parents were – will determine most of who you will be and how easily you’ll be able to generate money in the world; will determine whether you get to live or whether you have child debtto struggle to survive, day in and day out. See: exactly the same as with genetic disorders, as ‘faults’ that are being passed on from generation to generation through the DNA. The same goes with how parents’ performance and financial position determines the kind of life their child will lead.

I’d say we don’t wait for God to come and fix his creation. It’s obvious he doesn’t care anyways. If we want to be saved, we’re going to have to do it ourselves. If we want to live in a different world, we have to change the starting point of Life. The current starting point of Life is: DEBT. Both within the physical/DNA as in the money-system – because we are born with the debts and sins of those that have gone before us.

The starting point of Life should be Forgiveness. When a being comes into the world, he/she should be unconditionally forgiven and start their life in forgiveness – clear – empty – not carrying with them the mistakes of the past of those that have gone before them. This sounds lovely – but how can it practically be done?

To free the future children of the world, we require to stop the cycle of ‘The Sins of the Fathers’ – this we do through taking responsibility for who and what we exist as, as the totality of ourselves. Each genetic disorder is a manifested consequences, which has an origin-point. It is for each one to find and identify those origin-points, release them and re-align our design. This is practically done through self-honesty, self-forgiveness and self-corrective action. Through this – we stop the application of simply passing on our shit to the next generation and the next generation and the next generation. Instead: we have a look at the shit that is here, that has accumulated over eons of time: and we take self-responsibility for it. Sort ourselves out – clean ourselves up – remove the shit. That way – when new children come into the world – they are not born within disadvantage – they are born within opportunity.

To correct the cycle of ‘The Sins of the Fathers’ in the money-system can be done through implementing an Equal Money System – a system wherein each being unconditionally receives the amount of money required to sustain himself. This would mean that a child that comes into the world is financially supported – immediately – equally. They don’t take on the debt of their parents – they are unconditionally forgiven and are able to live their own life.

If God were good and loving and forgiving and man is made in the image and likeness of God – then surely this would be the type of monetary system that would be in use today. But it’s not – and God is not good, loving and forgiving.

Then remains the question: who do we want to be? Who do we want our children to be? What do we wish for the next generations? Do we want to be remembered in thoughts of hatred and resentment for what we left behind? Or do we stop and change the world around?

Stop waiting for God, people – you’re wasting your time. Instead – do what you would want God to do for you. It’s not above our human capacity – we just have to get off our lazy asses and get moving!

What are Currency Exchange Rates and Why do they Keep on Changing?

Economics – and anything remotely related to it – has always seemed to me like something that I ‘just don’t’ and ‘just won’t’ understand – and therefore, I just accepted it. I experienced it as a ‘big scary monster’ that I should try to steer away from as much as possible – and that’s exactly what I did. Consequently, I remained unaware of the mechanics of the economic system and interacted with it on a strictly ‘need-to-know’ basis.

And so – for instance – up until a few days, I had actually no clue of what ‘currency exchange rates’ are. As most people, I’m aware of how they play a role in calculating the value of a good or service from one currency to another – or how, when I go abroad and require cash in a different currency, the amount of foreign currency I receive, will be calculated according to these currency exchange rates. But – what they actually are and why they keep on changing: nope, no idea.

So – what are currency exchange rates? To answer that question – we first require to have a closer look at international trade – meaning: imports and exports.

As you are probably aware, not all products that are consumed within a certain country, are necessarily produced within that country. To gain access to goods and services that are not available – or not cheaply available – within the borders of one’s own country, products are imported from abroad.

As with any product being sold on a market – an exchange takes place. We exchange money for goods and services – and the same applies to imports (goods imported from abroad). Now, how does this work. Let’s illustrate it with a fictional example: when corn is imported from South Africa to Belgium, Belgium – or someone in Belgium – will require to pay for this corn in South African Rands. To be able to do that, the buyer will need to acquire South African Rands, because Euros are not a valid means of exchange in South Africa. And – like most things in this world: South African Rands can be acquired, through paying for them.

Indeed – what happens whenever one wishes to purchase goods from a country where your currency is not valid – is that you first have to buy the other country’s money, so that you’re able to use that money to make payments in the other country.

In the example of a Belgian buying corn from South Africa: The Belgian will first require to buy South African Rands with his Euros. Only once he has bought the South African Rands, can he proceed with purchasing the corn in South Africa.

‘Naturally’ – when we’re on holiday and we buy an ice-cream using our credit card, for instance, we don’t experience it as though we first buy foreign money and then, with the foreign currency, buy our ice-cream – both transactions, the exchange of currencies and the purchase of the ice-cream, happen simultaneously. However, it is important to understand that the exchange of one currency to another operates according to the same principles as any other purchase in the ‘free market’ economy. Currencies are goods that that are bought and sold – so, an exchange rate is really nothing else but the ‘price’ of a particular currency, expressed in a different currency. That wasn’t too bad, now, was it?

Now – the second question: why do exchange rates change all the time?

The answer to this question is implied within the answer to the question of what an exchange rate is: it is a price – and as such, it is subject to the two major ‘forces’ in the ‘free’ market economy, namely: supply and demand.

So – let us have a brief look at what is referred to by ‘supply’ and ‘demand’ and how those two act as ‘forces’ that influence prices. Again, I’ll illustrate with a fictional example:

Let’s say that on the market of apples, there are 5 available apples, but there are 10 people who each want to buy an apple. We say that 5 apples are supplied and 10 apples are demanded. How, within the ‘free’ market economy, is it determined who gets an apple and who doesn’t? Through the price of the apple. What is done in a situation where the quantity demanded exceeds the quantity supplied, is – the price is adjusted in such a way that the quantity demanded drops and becomes equal to the quantity supplied. In apple-terms: There are 5 apples supplied (quantity supplied) and 10 apples demanded (quantity demanded) – what the seller/supplier will do, is adjust the price in such a way that only 5 apples are demanded – thereby equalising the quantity of apples demanded (from 10 to 5 apples) to the quantity supplied (5 apples). (If you have to read the above paragraph a few times to understand it clearly: do so.)

How will the price be adjusted to drop the quantity demanded? The price will be raised. Why? Because the general rule is that at a lower price, the quantity demanded increases and at a high price, the quantity demanded decreases. You can relate this to your own experiences: when something is cheap, you’ll be inclined to buy more of it than when it is expensive. For instance, when there are sales on clothes, you may come home with 5 full bags of newly purchased clothes when, usually, you would maybe only buy a few items at a time. So, when 10 apples are demanded and 5 apples are supplied, the supplier will increase the price of an apple, until only 5 people are left who are willing to pay the higher price.

Logically – if 10 apples are supplied but only 5 apples are demanded, the opposite will happen. A supplier wants to sell all of his 10 apples. So – to get more people to be willing to buy his apples, he will lower the price of an apple, until 10 people are willing to pay the lower price. Again, herein equalising the quantity demanded (from 5 to 10 apples) to the quantity supplied (10 apples).

So – now you understand the principles of supply and demand and how they influence prices.

Since a currency exchange rate is nothing more than the price of a certain currency, exchange rates are subject to supply and demand as well – and that is why currency exchange rates change all the time; due to changes in the quantity demanded and the quantity supplied.

In our example:

The more foreign countries want to import corn from South Africa, the higher the quantity of South African Rands demanded (remember, they first have to buy the currency before they can pay for the corn with it), the more the price of South African Rands – or the exchange rate – will rise.

The less foreign countries want to import corn from South Africa, the lower the quantity of South African Rands demanded, the more the price of South African Rands – or the exchange rate – will fall.

There – doesn’t that make economy look a whole lot less scary already?

If you’re not satisfied with the current economic system and the consequence of it within the world, it is important to investigate how it works and to stand equal and one with those that are currently running the show. The first step herein is to educate ourselves on how the system operates and how they’re manipulating it to suit their needs. Even if economy seems like a big, scary monster: it’s not – it’s just another system.

Only the Poor would Survive

I’ve been raised in the belief that in order to survive, I need to have a good education, so that I can get a good job, a lot of money and from there I’ll be able to take care of myself.
Having moved to South Africa, this belief of mine has been challenged.
In coming to live on a farm, I quickly realised that all the knowledge I gathered over the years through schooling, had become completely useless – none of it was able to be applied or used in this new environment. I had to learn how to do everything as though I had never done anything my whole life.
All that I was able to do, was limited by that which I had learnt and studied in school. Anything outside of that was ‘unknown territory’ and I believed that it was ‘not for me’ because I hadn’t prepared myself through schooling/education to participate in that.
In my stay on the farm and in South Africa, I have met several people who have done a whole range of things during their life and who seem to be able to take on any challenge, no matter in which ‘field’ or of what ‘type’. This is in sharp contrast to the (adult) people I knew in Belgium: they had a stable job, which they had been doing for years and which they would probably continue doing for years. They had studied to ‘become something’, then they became it and then they simply remained as it. They have one profession and that’s it – one profession that requires a certain kill-set. Anything outside of this profession and skill-set, is ‘unknown territory’ and should be taken on by people who have educated themselves/ specialised in different fields, professions or skill-sets.
survival-425What I see here, is that the overall economic situation in Belgium is simply ‘more stable’ than in South Africa. In Belgium, you can afford to study just one profession and remain as it, because you’ll probably be able to keep that particular job for a very long time. In South Africa, however, the economic situation is not as stable and one requires to continuously look out for new opportunities or jobs in order to generate an income. Here one requires to adapt to the environment. “These are the available jobs/opportunities at this time: either adapt yourself to these jobs/opportunities, or suffer.”
Therefore, in general, people here are better at adapting themselves to change and if ever world war III breaks out, or a world-disaster occurs – it is those people who will be able to survive – as they will simply adapt to the situation and become whoever they require to become – not defined by any education or studies. Whereas, in a country like Belgium, people are so used to everything remaining the same, that if a war breaks out or a world-disaster occurs, they won’t know what hit them and they will literally be like fish on the land – because they didn’t ‘design themselves’ to adapt to change effectively.
And so, again, all is in reverse. Those countries with high levels and standards of education believe their population to be superior to countries with low levels and standards in education. But the result is that if you train yourself really well and really long in one thing, you are excluding yourself from everything else. In terms of living-skills and survival-skills – you’re useless if you cannot adapt to change. It is those who live in countries where the economic situation is unstable and the education standards are low – who are superior human beings.
Within designing a new, Equal, Money system – we require to re-design our education systems as well – because, you won’t require to study really hard to become very good at one profession, to get a ‘good job’, to have a lot of money in order to survive. Money will be here, will be provided unconditionally.
Education should train a person in a wide variety of skills. In school, I chose to study Latin-maths – and the only ‘skill’ I learnt here, was to study something by heart. In other studies, one learnt how to cook, in another one learnt how to work with engines and so on. Why are those classes not available to everyone? And why are all classes where someone requires to make their hands dirty, seen as ‘less’ and ‘for dumb people’?? With all my knowledge, I wasn’t able to do anything when it came to practical living!
If money and income don’t determine the value of a certain job, profession or skill-set anymore – people will actually be willing to develop all kinds of skills, whereby we are no longer limited and completely dependant on others to ‘get things done’. Each one can then explore themselves into various different applications, fields, skills and professions. Herein, the focus of education will shift from survival to life. Education should not exist for the purpose of survival – survival should be a given – education should focus on life and how to live effectively.
Currently – with all the education in place – still no-one knows how to live. How to live is not something that you learn in school, it’s something you have to apparently ‘figure out’ in your ‘spare time’. If education were to actually focus on Life and not Survival – what would the world look like?
