The fear of a life without medicine

As for the ancients was honorable fear God, today seems smart to fear a life without medicine.

The human body is not a machine. In any case, some very clever humans have copied workings of our body to produce similar machines.

There is a machine that is permanently transforming, regenerating tissues, microscopic fighting attackers, adapting to the environment. No machine does that.

Course in medicine and drug manufacturers will generate much profit we make maintenance (preventive medicine) as if we were a vehicle, every few miles, you need to renew lubricants, checking brakes, lights, and other mechanical routines.

Humans do not need any preventive medicine and much less maintenance.

The anatomy of living beings in general works without special help, except for a few exceptions. For example, a broken bone repairs itself better if someone confronts the two fragments well, that alone, unaided, without medication, without artificial treatments, re-welded.

This belief that we are machines that have to be met by a mechanical almost permanently is not successful for the simple reason that ARE NOT MACHINES.

The business generated around medicine has made us believe that they are indispensable partners of existence. In our culture it is believed that no medicine can not live.

The monopolistic character prevents us know what diseases we cause those chemicals we swallow every day, like ostia blessed assure us eternal life.

I'm not optimistic about this topic. I think the industry will continue intoxicating medicine for many years, so we generated a feeling that we are protected from all evil, illness or death.

As for the ancients was honorable fear God, today seems smart to fear a life without medicine.
