1999: The Liberation of Human Health
Until the 16 century the people of the known world lived in total illiteracy, unable to read and write and to lead a dignified life. This state of illiteracy provided the conditions for the unlimited financial greed of the medieval feudal and clerical rulers of the time and hundreds of millions of people paid for this humiliation with their lives. With the invention of the printing press everything suddenly changed and the translation of the Bible into the commonly spoken languages allowed every ordinary person the opportunity to learn to read and write.
This liberation of the human mind did not come about voluntarily. The people of that time had to fight for this basic right against the interests of their rulers, because knowledge is power and the rulers didn’t want to share it. But the people prevailed and within only one century, the illiteracy rate across Europe fell from 80% to 20%. It was this liberation movement of the human mind that terminated the Dark Ages and ushered in Modern Times.
In a similar way today, we are deliberately kept in the dark about the most basic functions of our bodies and about the function of our cells and their nutritional requirements, preventing the eradication of common diseases. Now as then, this state of health illiteracy serves one purpose only: the monopoly over our health and limitless financial greed of the economically powerful, i.e. today, the pharmaceutical investment business with disease.
Just like 500 years ago, we now have to make a decision whether we wish to continue living in illiteracy about our health or whether we take action to educate ourselves and thereby create the basis for the eradication of common diseases. The power released from the liberation movement of human health will set free unlimited potential of mankind and wipe away all barriers, as insurmountable as they may appear to be today. It is time to end the ‘Dark Ages of Medicine’.
