Re: Scientific Proof Of God
Wrong. I just watched Culloden. It's a really good docudrama made by Peter Watkins for the BBC in 1964. The following year he made The War Game, which was so good the BBC, who commissioned it, refused to broadcast it until 1985 because "the effect of the film has been judged by the BBC to be too horrifying for the medium of broadcasting." I recommend watching both.pErvinalia wrote:You know no one is watching any of your videos, right?
I also watched this short clip, which I discovered after a minute of googling to be a practical joke.
Next on my list of Dennis Markuse's links to watch is The Milgram Experiment.

I have been chasing Watkins's Culloden on Youtube without success for years, and finally given up. Now, thanks to Markuse, it practically fell into my lap. Who knows what else he'll finish up digging out for me? Right now I'm hoping for some episodes of The Gillies Report.

The "authorities" in politics, media, education, morals, etc., - maybe you will see the need for a higher power later on! - are so vociferous against juvenile crime, but so less vociferous against the glorious presentation with pictures, words, and deeds of ever more deadly and more powerful guns, missiles, bombs, etc... The mature criminals of our civilization are hypocrites, able to kill millions and get away without consequence.
I'm not justifying what happened. It may seem inhuman calculus, but let's compare KILL rates!
The destruction of entire nations through illegal wars over lies to fuel imperialist profits is glorified: i.e.,
http://www.neonnettle.com/news/3842-stu ... arma-drugs
http://drudgenow.com/article/?u=http%3A ... hooting%2F
But a few words about psychiatry as it applies for the majority of the population, and I'm not talking about people born with obvious neurological dysfunction:
The issue is covered in some detail on deltoidmachine page, but in my opinion the use of psychiatric drugs to cure mental illness, I.e., the method to chemically enforce obedience to the criminal totalitarian system, actually is a cause of mental illness.
The disruption of our delicate brain chemistry in the name of medicine with these mind destroying drugs is a tragedy of unprecedented proportions. They annihilate the individual, and transform people into a one-dimensional humans, and in the long term converts people either into killers, vegetables, or suicide cases, not to mention all the disastrous side effects of these drugs on the physical human body.
Here the cure is worse than the disease:
Psychiatry has become a real pseudoscience. Mental health and normalcy are defined according to the degree to which a person can function and perform in society. It is probably easy to agree what is the normal functioning of the heart and the lungs are. But what about the mind? If everyone thought exactly the same would that be a sign of mental health and normalcy? Of course not, it would mean the end of individuality! But what happens when these mental illnesses are CAUSED by the stresses and strains of competitive performance based capitalist society?
Therefore individual cure would be impossible without curing society as a whole.
Modern psychiatry has no other standards of value other than the prevailing ones given by society. To be a radical or in opposition to this capitalist society must imply that the person is "mentally ill" or a "criminal," for we are supposedly living in the best system of all time, thus runs their logic. WRONG!
But what happens when society is sick? Then mental health would actually be equivalent to mental illness which is hidden from both the individual and their society. For the most part, psychiatry is used to absolve society from its crimes and shift the blame and responsibility on to the individual, i.e., he must have a chemical imbalance in his brain. Not to mention the $330 billion dollar a year industry on drugs to treat so-called "mental disorders."

Re: Scientific Proof Of God
Superunivrse. I wonder if you have any experience of mental illness other than, perhaps your own personal one. Your paranoid approach to the world does suggest that you might have symptoms which are compatible with schizophrenia or some other paranoid condition. I think, as someone who worked as a psychiatric social worker for a few years, that I am qualified, at least informally, to suggest that.
Your analysis about the controlling nature of the psychiatric profession is not a new one. R.D. Laing, Thomas Szasz and the so called 'anti psychiatry' movement of the 1960s and 70s were the first to rebel against the establishment. And in my opinion they were right to within certain limitations. Psychiatry, after all, is the only medical profession (with a few rare exceptions) where your liberty can be taken from you in the name of 'curing' you. And it is true to say that some of those 'cures' are not cures at all but heavy duty sedatives of one sort or another which dampen down symptoms so that 'voices', intrusive thoughts and paranoid obsessions don't rule the lives of those poor people suffering from those conditions.
If it was true that people suffering from psychotic conditions, when left to their own devices did OK then all would be fine and good. However the outcomes for untreated schizophrenia are not good. A few individuals gradually find their symptoms decreasing, but the majority find them worsening the older they get to the point where their lives become completely unmanageable and they become seriously at risk of getting physically ill from neglect. Crucially too, the symptoms very often cause acute distress for the sufferer. This point should not be overlooked.
The facts are - the real facts, not ideologically driven ones - are that science over the last 50 years has gained greater understanding of the way schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder and the like operate within the chemistry of the brain. Unfortunately for the likes of Laing (I was a big fan myself), there is mounting evidence that these conditions are the result of brain chemistry disorders. The current thinking is that schizophrenia is linked to the dopamine and/or glutamate systems for example.
Of course how you treat those disorders and the people who suffer from them is another matter. However the days of automatic incarceration are long gone - at least in developed nations. And the days of thinking psychiatry is a tool of the state - well that is teenage political thinking at its best.
