Everything you know is a lie...

I don't think this means that everything I know is a lie.

Well.. yah.. that's clearly hyperbole.

"Disease X" sounds super duper. What could possibly go wrong?

I feel there is a strong possibility that the biggest issue with widespread, ubiquitous vaccines is that what they are designed to prevent may be made worse in the end. Coupled with research and advancements in arenas like biological warfare.. and we may very well be the architects of our own destruction.

This is where I do think the new face of conflict (coined MindWar by Aquino) doesn't just have merit, but is a truly superior alternative.

I actually know about this probability of an unnatural pandemic occurring from reading many articles about our changing of microbes by unnatural processes. I thought I was on to something, but now you are saying what I know is a lie. Ok, guess I am used to science being misconstrued interpretations.

I'm not sure this means everything I know is a lie, but it does add to the simmering kettle, of possible Near, Or Complete Extinction Level Events!
WTF is wrong with this Planet's inhabitants? Especially the smart ones that create Pandemic Diseases?....

For whatever reasons, there is frequently a total disconnect between scientific endeavors and their consequences.

All too often "intelligence" and "wisdom" are inversely proportional.

a reply to: Serdgiam

Agreed! "Total Disconnectedly Inversely Proportional" does work well here.

Quite well indeed!




(Good to see You again Serg!! It as been quite a while since I have seen You. I hope You are well.)

So, evidently, it is well educated people with degrees that will fuel the next major pandemic. They will talk us into trusting their creations which were created by science and have evidence to show that they are helping us....when in fact it is the opposite. I thought watching soap operas was bad.

Just when you think things couldn't get any worse.

What is that like,thinking that things can't get any worse?
For some of us who have never thought that things couldn't get any worse, the only thing that might have seemed that way was the rate at which it could get worse. Now though, even the rate at which things can get worse is worse than it used to be. So indeed, God bless us all.

I'm at a point that I don't think things could get worse, but I'm betting they will.

Don't forget the potential killers they are bringing from space, upper atmosphere and benight lake Vostok and deep sea exploration. Many unknowns.
We have the study where they sampled virus and bacteria and DNA on the subway and half of the ones even there were unknown.

Oh wow! Doom porn in the media, what a surprise. There are exactly 0 cases of Disease X because it does not exist. Next....

Including this thread?


My take on plagues and disease.
It's just nature. So far nature hasn't built a plague yet that was capable of killing EVERY human. There were people that were immune to all past plagues.

But human created disease.....
That's scary. Human beings are clearly dum enough to kill themselves.

At least nature is strong enough to survive anything we do, so at least the world will survive.

Researchers said that they added Disease X to the threat list to recognise the fact that the next deadly pandemic could be started by an illness that has not caused any problems before.

It may exist is the idea and if it doesn't it will because humans can't stop messing with dangerous stuff like mix and match deadly new killer viruses. Then they just need to see what it does in the wild...where we live.

I believe that this Disease X is already here, or at least a permutation of it. Has anyone heard of Morgellon's disease? Well, I have suffered with it since 2010 and it is truly horrific. I believe it's a very slow moving disease, but once it's infiltrated your immune system, there's little you can do to stop it. In eight years, I've gone from being a healthy and active individual to being disabled with all kinds of medical diagnoses such as autoimmune diseases, skin that looks and feels alien, severe nerve damage throughout my body, weakening of my bones and vertebrae which usually take 20 years to degenerate to this point and the most recent finding, bone marrow cancer.

Additionally, recent research has shown that this disease is a multi-system illness of unknown cause, which can remain stealth in your body so you don't even know what it's doing. More importantly, once it's in your system, it is capable of altering your own DNA. Think about that for a moment. The truly nefarious thing about this disease is that Morgellons itself won't kill you, but it infects your bioterrain and leaves you susceptible to a whole host of other illnesses that will kill you.

These facts are verified by the following studies/articles from National Center for Biotechnology Information and from PR Web.

My opinions relative to Morgellons possibly being the start of a Disease X are gleaned from my own empirical experience, as well as hundreds of thousands worldwide.

So to address your original post, boozo, yes, I do believe that an illness with characteristics of this Disease X will kill me and yes, I believe it will reach a pandemic stage, but no, I don't believe we're talking an extinction event. That being said, it will kill millions, in my opinion, and whether it's the result of purposeful microbe exposure or an accident in which something got out of a lab that shouldn't have, in the end, it's the same result. I find some comfort in the fact that the probability of such a disease is at least finally being acknowledged.

It's Debbie downer and I'm back to crash everyone's doomsday disease party!!! Disease X is hypothetical and put in place for emergency preparedness. It will always be on the list as "Disease X" even after brand new outbreaks are named and added. It's kind of like using the "zombie apocalypse" as an emergency situation to help prepare for anything. I guess the party is back on though, we will certainly end up with some pandemic...

I guess planet x was loosing steam so now we get disease x is going to kill us all.

a reply to: SeaWorthy

You just confirmed Disease X is faker than pro wrestling. Maybe we will get showered from space with Disease Y which will increase longevity and cure obesity. Next...

a reply to: SyxPak

Nice to see both of you!!

Everything I know is italics! How does that work?!?!

OP, I couldn’t agree more with the thought that we do things without thinking of the consequences. I work in IT, and they rush to fix problems without concerns about the impact on other systems.

That is where process should be in place to halt the research. That is also the human condition of predicting the future and being bad at it. That was why Shelly wrote Frankenstein.

Thanks for the mind time out!!
