NewAgers Will NOT Accept The Kidneys Clear Toxins (And It's A Beautiful Thing)

“My plan,...was to get out excessive toxins,...I felt like my body is intelligent, I know that,...Our bodies are brilliantly made. I decided to keep my tumor and try to work it out of my body a different way.”

As you can see, former MTV VJ Ananda Lewis has died, using her intuition about how the body works (which she did NOT know) and, of course, "alternative" medicine. These beliefs had her following in the goofy and gullible footsteps of Steve Jobs, Farrah Fawcett, Olivia Newton-John, Suzanne Somers, Val Kilmer, Bob Marley, Patrick Swayze, and many, many other fools. 

It's unfortunate, but yet another great "life lesson" for the rest of us: 

 Listen to your fucking Doctor.

 

How Hillary Clinton Has Made "Real Time With Bill Maher" A Totally Unreal Show

 

MOST RECENTLY:

Bill Maher vehemently denied he and Sam Harris were duped by Hillary Clinton's RussiaGate AND that he and Sam Harris suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome, when,  it's quite obvious - in reality - they most certainly did and do.

   

IN THE PAST:

Bill Maher vehemently denied American meddling in the politics of the Middle East AND the deadly effects that meddling (and the lies about them) has had, when - in reality - America has bloody hands and (Hillary Clinton, as former Sec. of State) is up to her neck in it. 

   

THE ORIGINAL SIN:

Bill Maher sided with the late Suzanne Somers to vehemently deny AND repeatedly refuse to allow the American people to hear the late Christopher Hitchens' evidence that former President Bill Clinton is a three-time rapist, when - in reality - Hitchens' evidence was solid.

Go Inside, Lock The Door, Stay There - SCREAM

True story:

We're talking to a guy, when Suzanne Somers comes on TV and he asks us what we think of her. We say we don't like her, naturally, she spreads misinformation that gets people killed. When we ask what he thinks, he replies, a little miffed, "I think she's smart because she's made a whole lot of money."

A little while later, the topic turns to a local talent agency that sells head shots for inflated prices, and when we ask what he thinks of them he angrily spits back, "I hate those guys - I've heard they're a rip-off."

And so it goes,....

We're Blaming Everything (But What's To Blame)

It doesn't seem to matter what kind of article we're reading about things going wrong, or being unfair, eventually the name of some NewAge icon or idea will pop up as the culprit, yet it's still a chore to get anyone to recognize it's the adoption of NewAge cult thinking, itself, that's screwing us. A case in point is Dominic Raab's article on feminism where he says this:

You can’t have it both ways. Either you believe in equality or you don’t. If you buy into the whole Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus theory of gender difference – with all its pseudo science - you can’t then complain about inequalities of outcome that flow both ways from those essentially sexist distinctions.

Very true, though we'd take issue with the mere claim of "pseudo science" and lay the blame where it should be - "spirituality" - specifically, NewAge.

Of course, Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus was written by "Dr." John Gray. What most don't know is "Dr." John Gray was the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's personal secretary for the Transcendental Meditation cult. (Not only that, but his Ph.D was from a California university that was shut down, and his undergraduate degrees - in the made-up "Science of Creative Intelligence" field - were from the Maharishi European Research University in Switzerland. In other words, totally bogus.) Considering Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus was a major best-seller, how many have absorbed Gray's (and the Maharishi's) cultish, "sexist" thinking - "with all its pseudo science" - as their own?

And why has TIME Magazine featured the thoughts of Deepak Chopra? He's a Maharishi alum, too. Also - considering the Maharishi was a fraud - what has elevated Chopra to the role of an American spokesman, worthy of speaking on American television about topics as diverse as politics? Who, exactly, is he speaking for? What good has Chopra accomplished? Other than duping millions, what has he actually ever done? Does anyone care? Or, in the age of Bernie Madoff, is deceiving people considered an accomplishment in and of itself?

No one looking seriously at the subject can miss how the NewAge scam works:

The Huffington Post posts a column by Deepak Chopra, defending Oprah Winfrey's promotion of quackery, using celebrities Jenny McCarthy (above) and Suzanne Somers.

Or, put more accurately, a John-Rogers cult member (seen above) ran a bald-faced lie by a Maharishi cult member, defending a NewAge accolade's "crazy talk", using a (now debunked) anti-vaccinationist and natural cancer cure fraud.

Catching on yet?

As Dominic Raab pointed out with his "Dr." John Gray example, we now have the entirety of Western culture (and business) willingly, and wrong-headedly, following these scam artists and "mystical" frauds, destroying the fabric of our society - without ever questioning when these crooks (as TIME Magazine says) "jump to easy conclusions and,...spackle over problematic gaps and inconsistencies in the ideas". Why not? When was it a part of the American character to allow charlatans, and outright cultists, to operate amongst us unmolested - giving them power, and making them fortunes, beyond their wildest dreams to boot?

Oh yea, since we entered the NewAge.

Just Like You And Me (Except We're Not Crazy)

Why do women worship Oprah so? Other than they have to? Other than the fact they watch TV and are simply compelled to? Other than the fact - don't deny it, we have eyes - their lives are so damned empty (and they are so damned gullible) that they'll believe in almost anything?

Why - other than all that - it's got to be because Oprah's just brought so much good in the world, and they're determined to be a part of it:

In terms of promoting woo and quackery, there is one person who stands head and shoulders above all the rest. True, she doesn't just promote woo and quackery, but she does have a long list of dubious achievements in that realm, including but not limited to unleashing Jenny McCarthy and her anti-vaccine crusade plus Suzanne Somers and her "bioidentical hormone" and cancer quackeries on an unsuspecting American public. She's also subjected us to both Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz to the point of actually launching them on their own shows, promoting the mystcial mumbo-jumbo wish fulfillment that is The Secret, and basically providing the most influential daytime TV platform for all manner of pseudoscience on a regular basis. Indeed, she's been running a veritable war on medical science. There's no New Age woo too woo-ey or quackery too quacky for Oprah.

And that's truly a beautiful thing.

Just like her girlfriend, Gayle.

You Can Believe What You Want To Believe

Well now, let's not mince words:

"The doctor at the centre of the MMR vaccine controversy has been struck off after being accused of ‘callously disregarding’ vulnerable children.

Andrew Wakefield, 53, whose research claimed there was a link between autism and the measles, mumps and rubella jab, was yesterday branded dishonest, misleading and irresponsible by the General Medical Council.

He has been banned from practising in Britain after being found guilty of more than 30 charges of serious professional misconduct.

In the longest, most expensive hearing in its 148-year history, the GMC accused the doctor of ‘bringing the medical profession into disrepute’.

The five-strong panel, which began its investigation in July 2007, concluded Dr Wakefield had behaved unethically and ‘abused his position of trust as a medical practitioner’."

So much for the "science" holding up Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey.

Or rather, Jenny McCarthy.

I forgot she and Jim broke up.

It just got too crazy.

Awww, so sad.

That also means NewAgers, like Suzanne Somers and Oprah Winfrey, take another hit in Ye Ol' Credibility Dept. as well.

Whoda thunk it, huh?

And let's not forget when Chiropractic was put through it's paces:

"A respected science writer yesterday won his gruelling libel battle over the right to criticise what he calls 'bogus' science.

The British Chiropractic Association has dropped its defamation case against Dr Simon Singh  -  who has spent £200,000 fighting the legal action and says he has been put through 'two years of hell'.

Campaigners hailed it as a victory for freedom of speech."

Which was right around the same time homeopathy, appropriately enough, was laughed out of it's own hearing:

"It's hard to say which is more ridiculous: the sight of a grown man speaking this nonsense, or the fact that after 200 years homeopaths apparenly haven't bothered to 'fully investigate' how much shaking is required for their remedies to work. And yet, bizarrely, these people expect to be taken seriously.

In this they have failed spectacularly. The select committee report has brutally inflicted the 21st, 20th and 19th centuries on this 18th century magic ritual, and under inspection it has fallen apart."

Meanwhile, Salon.com's Joan Walsh is, kinda sorta, sorry she said something, kinda sorta, saying:

"I'm coming to regret using the term 'racist' about the Tea Party."

Say it ain't so! And I'm finding it's becoming easier and easier to find other women are, finally, standing up and screaming:

"Why!? Why!? This is your fault! Take responsibility, you crazy woman! Why!?"

That was totally unheard of just a few years ago. But you really can't beat this great quote from our friends at Greenpeace:

"Legitimacy has shifted to the side of the climate skeptics, and that is a big, big problem."

Yea, yea, "big problem".

Tell me, my cultish compadre - do you get the feeling something's been lost?

"Italian police reportedly unearthed hidden dossiers on 'enemies' during a raid on Church of Scientology offices in Turin.

The files, apparently discovered behind locked doors in a basement office, allegedly contained personal information on judges, police officers and journalists identified as hostile to the Church.

Details on former Church members who have turned against Scientology were also reportedly recovered from handwritten files and computer records seized following a nine-hour search of the premises."

Like people might be putting your cons together, and maybe catching on?

"Jim Jones was a power player in Bay Area politics and thereby a player in national Democratic Party politics. Local politicians and activists benefited from the slave labor that he could provide on little notice to people political rallies and hand out campaign literature. In gratitude, Moscone appointed him chairman of San Francisco’s housing authority and Willie Brown likened Jones, a man who would eventually kill more African-Americans than any Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard, to Martin Luther King, Jr. First lady Rosalyn Carter and her husband’s running mate, Walter Mondale, both met with the cult leader. Jones even appropriated the title of Huey Newton’s book, Revolutionary Suicide, to describe the extermination of his flock (which included several of Newton’s relatives). Once Jonestown’s residents had performed this 'revolutionary suicide,' the wills left behind bequeathed all to the Soviet Union."

You know, seeing the world as it is?

"He was the original guru pop star. Made famous by the Beatles in the 1960s, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi was the godfather of the Transcendental Meditation movement, known as TM. He inspired such acolytes as author Deepak Chopra and filmmaker David Lynch, and remained TM’s figurehead until his death in 2008 at the age of 94. The Maharishi was once dubbed 'the giggling guru.' But now it appears he may have been giggling all the way to the bank. David Wants to Fly, a new documentary shown last week at Toronto’s Hot Docs festival, offers compelling evidence that the Maharishi’s empire of enlightenment is more devoted to shaking down its followers and amassing wealth than transcending the material world."

Some are certainly starting to talking like it:

"Even though the Constitution does not include the words 'separation of church and state,' liberals have long treated that concept as a hallowed fundamental doctrine of constitutional law. But no more. With the recent introduction of new Senate cap and trade legislation, ultraliberal supporters Barbara Boxer, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama and others have now completely abandoned that doctrine in their quest to establish global warming dogma as the official, established religion of the United States."

But is anybody else paying attention out there?

I mean, really, this is HUGE:

I'm reversing the trajectory of the planet - with my mind!

Sending Out All The Right Signals

"Shut your fucking mouth, you hypocritical, disgusting fuck bag."

Hat Tip: Demented Tidbits

The Very Picture Of Normalcy

Fuck: I got tired and fell asleep in front of the computer - after posting this, practically in my sleep, in an incomplete form - without many links, or decent editing, and shit. (Try finding the tags, below the post, for the various names and incidents I mention, like Saul Alinsky.) I fixed the post up a bit, once I woke up, but I'll have to link it up later. Sorry: I'm tired, Kids, trying to make that big money to pull myself out of debt finally - but I'm almost there. Apologies, and a Happy 4th to you all.

It's the Forth of July!!!! Happy American Independence Day everybody!!! We're not a part of Europe!!! Hip-Hop-Hooray!!!

I was going to drop this whole France thing and get back to normal - reading up on the latest examples of cultism and posting them with a comment - but, then, the first thing I came across is The Advice Goddess' take on Lisa Schiffren's France piece in the National Review Online. The Goddess and I are cool, having shared a few nice words a while back, but some snark named Maggie45 had to get involved, with a comment about my Schiffren post, and got my dander up:

"The guy mentions his French ex-wife, which seems to be the underlying reason for the post. Look at my photos from our meal at L'Ami Jean. Not quite in keeping with sour man's appraisal. He should have married more carefully."

My "French ex-wife"? That's it, Maggie?

Nothing about those three dead bodies she produced from believing - as 40% of the french, and too many Americans do - in that "harmless" homeopathy, sold in "healthy" and "progressive" establishments (like Whole Foods) around the world?

Nothing about her adultery (another french favorite, though The Goddess says "there is a line that gets crossed -- in any culture" when discussing Mark Sanford's affair,...I imagine because he's a conservative.) and not one word about my mere "French ex-wife" also being a diehard NewAger?

Nope, like everyone else in NewAge Land, it's LOSING MY WOMAN - and nothing more - that's the key to my ravings, as far as kind-hearted Maggie is concerned.

I heard it from my friends, the police, doctors, mental health professionals, scientists, and even my own divorce lawyer - you name it - until the french police called to say my mere "French ex-wife" and her homeopath had killed two more people - after disposing of her own mother.

Then all those know-it-alls, like Maggie, scattered, because they couldn't look the macho man in the eye.

Sorry, Maggie Ol' Girl, and major apologies to The Advice Goddess (you know I love you) but - without removing my pants - I'm going to have to "rock your world" with The Macho Response:

The Advice Goddess gets it first:

"NRO's Lisa Schiffren is kind of an idiot on what to eat in France, and in her assumption that the French 'don't much like children' (couldn't be farther from the truth). She posts with abandon -- apparently without making any effort to understand or investigate French culture -- and doesn't get that children are not catered to in France, but expected to act like little adults if they're in adult places like restaurants."

Excuse me but (as I've been saying over and over) I've been traveling, and living, all over France for 20-fucking-years - with my "French ex-wife". I'm not talking about The Advice Goddess' little trip to Paris "with Gregg" 6 years ago, but almost half of my life in Paris, Lourdes, Toulouse, Biarritz, the Basque Country, Strasbourg, Lyon, Aix-en-Provence, Cannes, Marseille, St.Tropez, Pau, Alsace, and countless little villages that I don't care if I ever see again - and you couldn't be more wrong - you're buying their bullshit:

Kids are fucking kids, the world over, and I've spent more than my share of meals with embarrassed french parents as their fucking brats terrorized a meal because their pathetic, liberal, overseers refused to do anything more than repeatedly say "La! La!" ("Stop! Stop!") to the out-of-control little shitbags that they loooovvvve so much.

Back to The Goddess:

"[Schiffren] complains that restaurants are only open at certain times. What times? Meal times! That's because the French tend to eat meals...they don't walk the streets shoving Cheetos in their snoots all day. Doesn't work for you? Easy answer: Stay in Cleveland!"

Listen, Good Lookin', I'll take Cleveland (or even the Third World) over anywhere in France any day - and I'll offer you a challenge in return:

You like France so much? Go live there!

I've got an American girlfriend, from a french family, who speaks fluent french. This blog got started when my friends and I posted photos of the day she got married to a (rare) cool french guy, and they decided (just as I did) she might as well give living in France a shot. She's from a well-to-do family, so they decided they were going to (what else?) open a restaurant over there. Hooray!!!

Knowing I lived in France often, she asked for my opinion of the idea. I told her not to do it:

"It's Hell.", I said. "They'll drive you mad with their bullshit. Easily one of the most inconvenient, and frustrating, experiences you can imagine - and I've stayed in the Philippines: Don't do it."

Of course, like Maggie45, she pooh-poohed my words as one "sour man's appraisal" and moved there anyway.

Flash-forward three months, to the day I get a phone call from her, crying, begging me for more advice on what to do. "What's wrong?", I asked, sure I knew what I was about to hear.

"It's been so hard! The bureaucracy is massive, the paperwork never ends, and the red tape is overwhelming - and we've had to pay bribes to everyone! I hate this!"

"Now, now", I said, "I told you when you left that starting a restaurant was going to be difficult in France, right?"

That's when she sobbed, "Restaurant? I'm talking about getting an apartment!"

She is now opening her restaurant, with her french husband, in Houston, Texas.

Go, Goddess, for maybe two or three years - enjoy - with my blessing.

You've already noticed the french are "socialist nitwits", so all you've got to learn is what that really means, and an extended stay - where, all of a sudden, you have to rely on those nitwits - is just the cure for what doesn't ail you in America. If you've got any sense, you'll be kissing the ground - and using the American flag as a sex toy - when you get back.

Y'all can read the rest of The Advice Goddess' bullshit column for yourself. It's full of the usual blather about "Paris", like that one postcard city can tell you anything about living in a nation of 65,073,482 "socialist nitwits".

I want to get to this Maggie person because she's the one who's really got me ready to scratch my NewAge itch:

I "should have married more carefully", huh, Mags? Maybe, but considering the fact that all the things my "French ex-wife" is into are promoted by the french - and, in the case of NewAge beliefs, primarily by women across the Western World - it's kinda hard for a normal "macho" guy to know what he's gonna get these days:

Like a lot of guys, I wasn't looking for a great beauty or anything, I just wanted somebody "nice", and, golly gee, people with NewAge beliefs - and/or, like Mark Sanford, who indulge in any other kind of "spiritual" nonsense - sure can come off "nice" on the surface. It's when I get a deeper look at them that they get me smiling:

Oprah Winfrey - known as one of America's leading moral authorities - nailed in Newsweek Magazine for spreading disinformation, and quackery, to almost the entire populace of the United States. A real sweetheart, she's giving "America's favorite doctor", Mehmet Oz, his own TV show, too - without ever mentioning he's so "out there" he's married to a Reiki cultist.

I hear Oprah's also giving a show to that NewAge vampire, Suzanne Somers. That would be the same dingbat from Three's Company who tried to talk Christina Applegate out of her cancer treatments, in favor of some quack nonsense with herbs and shit, so, you know, Christina could die, like Farrah Fawcett, on live TV or something.

Because, you know, Suzanne Somers cares sooooo much.

Oprah also has that anti-vaccine porno-nutjob, Jenny McCarthy, slated for her close-up with the small screen. McCarthy, along with her now-NewAge boyfriend, Jim Carrey, are both being blamed by scientists and real doctors for bringing back a whole slew of curable childhood diseases with their loony paranoia. Why, you couldn't ask for two more generous souls to achieve further fame from that fat/skinny black bitch with the talk show.

She's so niiiiiiice.

I already mentioned Oprah's pal, "Dr." Deepak Chopra, and his attempt to pull the wool over the eyes of the Journal of the American Medical Association. Somehow, Michael Jackson drops dead under mysterious circumstances, and his punk ass pops up in an interview along with that spoon-bending charlatan, Uri Gellar - and nobody says shit about "The King of Pop"'s life - like Princess Diana's - surrounded by a bunch of psychic, cultish, adulterous and homeopathic liars (Hi, Prince Charles!) who couldn't be trusted as far as you could throw them. No - wait - those were Michael's "friends". You know:

The kind of committed life-long buddies who never decided they were going to put their foot down and demand that poor, troubled man stop destroying his face.

They were too "nice" for anything like that.

Bill Clinton hangs out with that "nice" guy, and cult leader, Ken Wilber - and he made a shit load of money going on tour with Mr. Motivation, Tony Robbins. "Saint Hillary" Clinton uses that psychic, Jean Houston, as a hidden emotional life raft. Rhonda Byrne's got The Secret - thanks to Oprah and Ellen - and, boy, I betcha the people who bought into that crap could sure use that money back during this recession, huh?

I guess, according to "The Law of Attraction", they brought it onto themselves,...PBS' major donor, Louise Hay, thinks so - she's so "nice".

Madonna is adopting black babies from Africa - and, in return, she's built a Kabbalah school there, demanding African children become confused as all get-out by the wonders of Numerology. (That "nice" belief system that got every thinking black person to clear the Washington Mall once Louis Farrakhan started spouting it during The Million Man March.)

Madge's Kabbalah "teachings" are so good for growing children. Why, as an example of how good Kabbalah is - as part of a well-rounded education - it once drove the "Sex" lady to start demanding countries put her Kabbalah water in the world's nuclear reactors.

Man, those kids in Africa got it good.

Are you getting the BIG picture, here, Maggie? Losing my "French ex-wife" ain't "the underlying reason" for my beef with the world:

My "French ex-wife" is lost to a world of silly, shallow, easily-fooled real-man-hating NewAgers, like you, who will sit in a pile of shit and call it gold because it gives them a warm feeling.

Without having ever met you, I'd put money on it that you voted for Barack Obama - the man who, like Hillary Clinton, studied Saul Alinsky's Satan-dedicated community organizing methods - because only such an idiot can believe a guy who forced poor blacks to endure a freezing Chicago winter would be worthy of being in charge of The Greatest Nation On Earth - or what your beloved frogs refer to as "The New World".

Even Rush Limbaugh was promoting Zicam, so now a bunch of people can't smell ever again because someone they really trusted led them astray (Can you imagine?). Al Gore and Sting are Global Warming hypocrites who, still, can't prove anything more than "climate change" is occurring - as they, and Obama, demand we go bankrupt to "fix" the weather. My movies and music are filled with Scientologists like Tom Cruise, John Travolta (may his son RIP) and John Denver and Beck. The Seeds were led by a cultist.

Politicians, like Jane Harmon, are either yoga nuts, alternative medicine nuts (Tom Harkin) or, like Dennis Kucinich, just plain nuts. Even science has abandoned us to NewAge.

You're all fucking mad. My wife, the "French ex-wife" - who I still love - killed three people, including her own mother, after one of these NewAge "water salesmen" took advantage of her sexually through convincing her that "water is medicine" and she had "powers" that she "underestimated" - in this insanely NewAge cultural environment - and you have the nerve to think you, with your petty pop psychology, have deduced "the underlying reason for the post"?

Lady, you (and, pretty much, everybody else) don't understand anything - about me, France, or the pathetically decrepit "spiritual" world of whole hog, media biased, feminist-inspired, NewAge France-loving/America-hating lying, straight from The New York Times/MSNBC mumbo-jumbo factory we live in. My marriage never stood a chance.

My life, such as it is, doesn't stand a chance:

I am a man. I am The man. A black man. I am Black Lightening. And I'm, still, fighting to keep my head on straight where others have lost theirs to cultish thinking. But you've got to understand:

Murder and divorce, along with a mega-dose of the world's mystic mayhem, can do this to anybody.

And that, Mrs Maggie45, is the "real underlying reason" for what I do. But a person like you would never, ever, ever recognize me for what I really am in this world - which is:

Probably the only really "nice" person you'll know.

P.S.

Hey, Advice Goddess, we should get together sometime - you're kinda cute, and still alright by me - but (fair warning:) I ain't going nowhere with that fucking Gregg.

His dumb ass can stay home and ponder the immortal words:
