‘Capital of Terrorism’ Has Fallen; Reflections on Religion and the Use of Force

“You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 17

The use of force to compel conversion to any religion is not from God who seeks our love and does not compel or force anyone.

Syrian forces battling the Islamic State group have taken the city of Raqqa, the seat of the ISIS caliphate, says Brig. Gen. Talal Sillo, commander for the US-backed Syrian forces. (Newser, AP)

The city chosen by ISIS for their caliphate is phonetically linked to Raca, a word that means fool, senseless, empty-headed man, worthless, in Christ’s famous Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5, says Dr. Richard Ruhling, author on current events and Bible prophecy. He offers the following comments.

The Bible is the prophetic book of God who “declares the end from the beginning,” Isaiah 46. The fall of Raqqa is an omen of the fall of all who try to force false ideologies on others. God made us in His image and He says, “Come, let us reason together.” Isaiah 1.

If God wanted forced worship, He would not need ISIS to do so. God is all powerful but He is also all wise, and He knows and love cannot be forced from others. The Golden Rule of treating others like we would want to be treated is how God is dealing with us.

Christianity teaches that God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes on Him may have life. His death for us, and His ascension to heaven were witnessed by men who initially ran, but later were willing to die for their faith.

Where are the witnesses to Mohammed’s ascension? Moses (cited by Mohammed) wrote that in the mouth of two or three witnesses a matter is established, Deuteronomy 19:15. God provided the witnesses for Christ’s ascension. 

Since witnesses to Muhammad’s ascension don’t exist, why should those without evidence want to blow everyone else up who don’t believe it? 

Perhaps this is not fair to Muhammad who was married to Catholic Khadija and he was mentored by her uncle. This explains some similarities with Mary and Fatima prominent in both religions. The Vatican’s strategy was to drive Jews and Evangelical Christians  out of Jerusalem and turn it over the papacy, but then the Arabs reneged, so we had the “Holy Wars” to get the infidels out, as stated by Alberto Rivera, former Jesuit priest, in his book, “The Prophet.” Chick Publiiations. 

The Vatican (a word that means ‘divining serpent,’ Google) used force to martyr 50-80 million Protestants during the Dark Ages. Most people think it couldn’t happen in this “enlightened age.”

The genocide of a 800,000 Protestant Tutsis in Rwanda suggests otherwise. Pope Francis apologized for the role of a Catholic government under John Paul that painted the Tutsis as Communists. The UN (swarming in Kilgali) could have stopped the slaughter, but was ordered to stand down and let the local government handle it. (Search YouTube for Rwanda documentary)

New World Order will force all so they cannot buy or sell without compliance, Revelation 13:14-17. The use of force for religion has the devil behind it as suggested by this http://vimeo.com/85267101 (two postings to YouTube are no longer displayed.)

Deadly Combo: Caffeine, Violent TV or Video Games & Prescription Drugs, Says MD

“The confused systems of our society are suicidal, but we don’t have to participate..” Dr. Richard Ruhling

Mixing gateway drugs like caffeine and alcohol, with TV or video violence and Rx drugs is a prescription for disaster.

“Isn’t it time for parents, teachers, and the medical profession to recognize mounting evidence that prescription drugs can be deadly in kids that use caffeine and have a focus of violence?” asks Dr. Richard Ruhling, citing the 26 dead and 20 more shot at a Texas church.

Reid Mosis, 26, a classmate said Kelley (shooter) was “always a bit of a loner. I know his parents had him on heavy doses of meds in middle school.” WorldNetDaily, 11/06/17.  

If readers Google ‘violence and prescription drugs,’ 23,400,000 results include articles by physicians and the National Institutes of Health reporting Prescription Drugs Associated with…Violence Towards Others

The NIH article said, “Acts of violence towards others are a genuine and serious adverse drug event,” so why does Congress give big Pharma what they want, if it isn’t because they get $400 million/year in help for their re-election campaigns? asks Ruhling, citing Dr. Marica Angell’s 60 Minutes interview years ago.

Ruhling notes that caffeine is a gateway drug that creates a need for other drugs to calm the nerves that caffeine stimulates. This is why coffee and a cigarette go so well together. Russian scientist, Dr. Pavlov called coffee “Bad Habit Glue” because people overwork, overeat, watch TV and would never get to work in time if they didn’t have their coffee to get going—it glues their bad habits together.

By the time kids get to middle school (as the Texas shooter did) they are often diagnosed as Attention Deficit Disorder and are taking prescription drugs that don’t cure the problem and can make it worse, says Ruhling who cites the NIH article that antidepressant drugs were “the most strongly and consistently implicated drugs” associated with violence.

“Video games cause violence”—type it into Google for another 15,700,000 results reported by news, professional journals and laymen. TV is the gateway media for violence with cartoons for kids and movies for adults. Knowing that the violence is fiction doesn’t alter the brain’s focus and appetite for more until some get so hyped that they do it.

“Give us the child for 8 years and it will be a Bolshevik [communist] forever.” – Vladimir Lenin. This might be paraphrased, “Start a kid on the legal drug, caffeine, and the mind drugs of violence or sex, and they may be ruined for life, which is why desperate parents take them for Rx drugs.”

And why do people do it? They brought their kids into the world, but are unwilling to do what is right in teaching them. Mothers join dads in the workplace for the sake of more money while they lose their kids to TV and similar social and school influences. Isn’t it time to take responsibility?

Why should women want equality in the work place when they had a better position in the home? If they don’t think so, they shouldn’t be bringing kids into the world that are their responsibility. This is not against the millions of moms who work hard because you-know-who isn’t around.

If God can bless those things that He has cursed, then may God bless America!

Dr. Richard Ruhling is a retired physician who writes about current events and Bible topics. His latest ebook, “God Bless America?”  has been well-liked,  http://amzn.to/2grtEQx

Rx Drugs Make Medical Care the #1 Cause of Illness & Death – It Helps Symptoms but It’s Not Healthcare

“Let your food be your medicine.” Hippocrates

Adverse Drug Reactions (properly prescribed and administered) have made medical care the leading cause of illness and death.

 “We are overlooking well-documented studies showing that adverse drug reactions are the leading cause of illness and death in the US,” says Dr. Richard Ruhling, a retired physician who was board-certified in Internal Medicine and taught Health Science at Loma Linda University. He offers the following information.

#1. The study cited by most showed 106,000 died in hospitals, and the drugs were “properly prescribed and administered.” Journal of American Med. Assoc, 4-15-98.

This begs the question, How many died at home? 199,000, according to Western Journal of Medicine, June, 2000, p 391. It said that for every person who died, 140 were adversely affected. “Drug related problems accounted for

• 116 million extra doctor visits
• 76 million additional prescriptions
• 17 million emergency visits
• 8 million hospital admissions
• 3 million long-term admissions
• Total Cost Estimate: $76.6 billion

Totaling those who died in hospitals with those dying at home = 305,000 deaths/yr.

#2. “From 1998 through 2005, reported serious drug events increased 2.6-fold… and fatal adverse drug events increased 2.7-fold.” Archives of Internal Medicine, Sept 10 2007. That was a 7-year period, but we’ve now ~ 20 years from the above figures of 305,000. With TV drug ads approved by Congress in 1997, the underlying cause of increased drug deaths are over 2 million, more than heart disease, and this is not even addressing the opioid issue now the leading cause of death under 40.

#3. Two thirds of deaths from heart disease are in people over 75, many of whom are in nursing homes or extended care facilities where the average number of Rx’s was nine nearly a decade ago with a trend to more. The drugs may kill them, but…

When mom dies in a nursing home, the doctor usually signs her death certificate as died of heart disease. No autopsy is done to determine the cause of death. Who wants to know the coronaries aren’t blocked; a prescription may have caused it?

#4. Marcia Angell, MD, former editor of the New England Journal of Medicine wrote The Truth About the Drug Companies; How They Deceive Us. She told 60 Minutes that they spend $400 million yearly on Congress and re-election campaigns so that  as one senator told this author, “They own us.”

Angell’s message is similar to the angel in Revelation 18 that says, “for by her [Babylon, a word meaning confusion] sorceries were all nations deceived.” verse 23 The Greek word for sorceries is pharmakeia, as an online concordance shows.

2000 years before the editor of a leading medical journal said it, the Bible linked deception to pharmakeia. We could be ignorant (ignoring good information) if we aren’t intelligent on the Bible.

The Spanish word for library is biblioteca—Bible tech. The Bible is like a library with history the most ancient, poetry and psalms, wisdom for business (proverbs) and principles for health and happiness. Matthew 24 has a forecast for what’s coming and a warning for those who don’t live to help others.

Ruhling encourages physicians to consider early retirement and to help people see that true healthcare is based on “Let your medicine be your food.” Hippocrates
