Let Them Drink Toxic Industrial Waste!

When an 'official' dictate determines the definitions given legal and social currency, it is wise to seek out those who witness outside the box that otherwise we are contracted to and deceived by.

Is one source of views that can serve a freedom to learn and grow in self and shared responsibility.

I'm rereading Szasz's The Theology of Medicine with a much keener sense of its relevance.
Thomas Szasz 2 Volumes Set_ The Manufacture of Madness & the Theology of Medicine.

Argument or debate WITHIN metaphysical, moral or theological theories taken as fact is pointless or a way to persist in missing the point, UNLESS its logical contradictions open a questioning of such presumptions or judgements to an expanded perspective.

I'll quote a salient reflection by Szasz:
"I know, or believe, that life is inherently tragic. In the Greek and Christian sense and tradition, tragedy is our fate. That is a given.
But there is another kind of tragedy, the kind that we, as patients and physicians, as lawmakers and laymen, fabricate by evading the tragic choices thrust upon us by life. The belief that we can have a medico-ethical and medico-legal system that combines the virtues, but not the wickedness, of justifying medical interventions by illness, treatment, and consent is, I submit, such a tragedy. It is, in other words, not a tragic fate we must bear, but a tragic folly we must avoid."

Our freedom to grow and learn and become is through choice. Where disease definitions, claimed efficacy or socially enforced 'consent' are raised as gods to which all must sacrifice, then lies usurp truth under guise of progress, virtue and social duty.
