Media and its role in distracting from purpose

TV is an

an idol utilized by your enemy as a Trojan Horse. You war not against Flesh and Blood but you are in a war. Put on your whole armor of God and watch what comes into your eye gate after putting on your Helmet. Idols in the past could not talk . We have a hypnotic idol that we place even our children's rooms. It is called television . Those of you who have a bill each month for cable pay to be hypnotized into the world system. T hose who do not know that rabbit ears bring in a better signal than cable have been hypnotized the most, to have illicit sex, do drugs and drink alcohol, and SHOP TILL YOU DROP for things that make you feel better than the WRETCHED OF THE EARTH. This is all those who produce "things' for you to consume think of you- wretched .No wonder we have become predominant consumers. You are only a consumer and will never produce anything watching TV. You will not have the Cathexis energy. Those who have never watched a Christian channel or educational channel like channel 14 and its 6 sub-channels , and 8 and its sub channels are being led to the kill. Do not "channel " in evil to your mind. But the devil is a liar, a thi e f and a murderer , he utilizes media to induce you to do things subliminally. May you come to yourself by buying a subscription to the Forward Times and other Black Nrespapers and by creating on Facebook our own media outlets,, break your contract with the cable company, and the houston chronicle and other major media outlets, WHICH ARE TOOLS OF THE DEVIL. . Read more boos such as Valentine's "the Strength of the Wolf" and your enemies' writings like The Turner Diaries" Read the WORD of God.Do it by asking God for help to do it Call it what you want. Then you will have a clue as to what is Really Going on out here on these streets. As Dre' Bone just said in a post. Go practice and make some songs up to improvise on creating harmony and peace on this earth .Go produce something, exercise , eat right and drink plenty of fluids. This was all inspired by hearing a recent urban Alternative sermon as well todays reading from I Corinthians 12

Prohibition Works?

Pfizer, which sells one opioid painkiller, was never named in the lawsuit. Its agreement with the city is voluntary and completely separate from that legal fight, a company spokeswoman said. The city did not find that Pfizer had violated any of its ordinances and there’s no admission of wrongdoing. “For us, it’s a public health issue,” the spokeswoman told FiercePharma Wednesday. Noting Mayor Rahm Emmanuel’s efforts to combat opioid abuse, she added, “Pfizer is happy to stand alongside them to ensure that painkillers are marketed responsibly. We want to make sure that the right people who need it have it.” The code of conduct essentially reflects Pfizer’s current marketing policies, the spokeswoman said. “Pfizer adheres to all applicable laws and regulations as well as to industry standards, including the PhRMA Code and the ACCME Standards," she said., adding that Pfizer also participates in the FDA's risk-management programs for extended-release and long-acting opioids. Pfizer’s agreement comes as the FDA and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are stepping up their own efforts to combat opioid abuse. The FDA has put restrictions on prescribers and added warnings to the drugs’ labels, while the CDC recently issued guidelines calling for drastic reductions in use of the drugs. Meanwhile, following a Los Angeles Times investigation, last month U.S. Sen. Edward Markey asked the FDA and Federal Trade Commission to investigate Purdue’s OxyContin marketing Chicago’s original lawsuit against a half-dozen drugmakers was dismissed last year, but the city filed an amended complaint in November, laying out 326 pages of specifics about the companies’ marketing practices and the city’s costs related to painkiller abuse. The LA Times reported that Purdue pushed OxyContin’s long-acting formula even though it knew the drug wore off early in about half of patients in clinical trials. Purdue pleaded guilty years ago to one felony count of misbranding OxyContin, for suggesting its drug was less addictive and less abused than other painkillers. Purdue’s CEO and two other execs also pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor misbranding charge. The company paid $635 million to settle with the Department of Justice. Chicago’s complaint leveled allegations against Purdue, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries ($TEVA), Johnson & Johnson's ($JNJ) Janssen unit, Depomed ($DEPO), Endo ($ENDP) and Allergan ($AGN). The lawsuit claims the drugmakers knew "that opioids were addictive and subject to abuse, particularly when used long-term for chronic non-cancer pain" and that products like OxyContin and Percocet should be used only as a last resort. But, the city says, the companies used sophisticated--and highly deceptive and unfair--marketing to effect a "sea change" in attitudes toward the drugs. The marketing, including a set of awareness campaigns mounted by organizations allegedly funded by the drugmakers, steered patients with chronic pain toward the meds despite the dangers, the lawsuit claims. The drugmakers have denied the city’s allegations, and they took issue with the city’s decision to sue. “Patients are hurt by litigation that risks creating inconsistent rules governing access to FDA-approved medicines,” Purdue said at the time. Janssen said in a statement that it had acted responsibly in offering a drug to people who suffer chronic pain.
