Wow, this is real? What a great stitch up! If only every person who cheated could be exposed this way. I hope he learns something from this, but I doubt it

BEST LINE EVER!

I've lived in Southern Ontario for most of my life, and 12 years ago I was diagnosed with Diabetes. Since then I've made a few trips to the ER for various reasons. A non-diabetes related incident was when I moved into my first apartment with a roommate back 5 years go. I was doing dishes and washing the inside of a glass when it broke, I received a rather excellent cut to the knuckle of my right pinkie finger. My roommate drove me to the ER, the nurses snickered at our hap-hazard bandage of old socks and paper towels, and about 45 minutes later I was on my way home, all stitched up, and no worse for wear. Oh, and not worrying about cost.

I've gone to the ER when I've been very physically ill, and dehydrated from vomiting. This is a serious issue for anyone with Diabetes. I'm always treated in good time, and taken care of quite well. The hospital here (Grand River Hospital, Kitchener, Ontario), in my experiences, have always been fast and courteous. The only bill I've ever had to pay was for an ambulance ride ($50) when I had a seizure from heat stroke and low blood sugar two summers ago. Even after that experience I had to go for tests to make sure I wasn't epileptic. I was scheduled for an EEG and an MRI, and got both appointments the following week, only two days apart. And even those tests didn't take all day, I was in and out in less then two hours for both of them.

If I had to think about cost everytime I needed medical assistance, I'd go crazy. The fact I can walk into any ER in Ontario and just show them my OHIP card (Provincial photo health ID) and be treated is a substantial ease on my mind. I pay my taxes, and that helps keep this system running as it does. And it runs just fine.

If they every attempted to give us the health system the Americans have, I could almost guarantee there'd be riots in the streets.

I spent five hours in an "emergency room" here in Roswell and got off with $2200 and a lot of bad attitudes from every so-called professional in the place.

I spent at the least 3.5 hours just lying there waiting for doctor dickhead to stitch up my finger--which I would have ignored had it not been a gaping wound.

Fuck this so-called health care system.

I know people who had good insurance and still got treated like shit.

Granted, I just promoted this and I understand this site has a very heavy atheist user base. Actually, it's the promoted, encouraged and abject hatred of anyone who is religious at all that has kept me away from here. I really don't argue religion, especially here. But I will just post my opinion on the content of this very short video since I happened by it. And I'm going to break it down as it happens.

The question in the beginning seems to be "Are you a religious man?" (when considering the wonders of nature etc). He answers "no". She then asks if it (again his experience with nature) has any philosophical meaning to him and he begins by telling her she hadn't asked him that. When, in fact, that's the question she's now actually asking. But he reveals that he has a particular problem with Christianity even though it was never specifically brought up. If the question is "How does your extensive background in observing nature impact your philosophical view of the world?" and the answer begins with "Well, I don't like Christianity". Then I think that's a problem. There's a skewed view coming from somewhere else that has nothing to do with the question being asked at all.

Then we go into this dramatically told story of the boy with a worm eating his eye. And he leans forward and thrusts this bullshit out trying to force it down her throat into meaning something. But it doesn't. I can tell you all sorts of stories. I know someone who was pushed in front of a subway train. Dead. There was one guy I walked passed in an alley that was being beaten to death with metal garbage cans. I personally have been shot at, electrocuted, stabbed, almost drowned under ice, poisoned, stitched up to the point where I was on a first name basis in the emergency room, fuck .. I should be a super hero .. or at least God's enemy number 1 .. but I don't think it works that way. Bad things happen to all kinds of people. It's a sad argument to say God doesn't exist because human suffering does.

In any event, this worm feeds on other things besides the human eye. Obviously. Or it would be extinct or we'd all be fucking blind. So this worm was not "made by God" to devour some child's eyeball. The same way HIV was not created by God to destroy the gays. It's nature. And someone like Attenborough should know that nature takes it's course without discrimination. It is VERY frustrating to hear him say "you believe it was created by God ... that God said "I will make a worm that can only live by eating/boring people's eyes". Even if you are a hardcore atheist this is utter shit.

He caps off his personal hatred of Christianity with "the Christian idea of a God who cares for each of us". And that the eyeball eating worm is incompatible with that. Well personally, I think his argument is already moot just from what I've said above but there is nothing ... regardless of whatever magic gumdrop land concept of Christianity that he has .. that says that people who follow the faith won't suffer.

If anything, everything about it tells you it is the path to more suffering.

In short, no chtierna. No, it wasn't Satan, it wasn't a punishment and no it wasn't some decree of God beyond our comprehension. The worm ate the eye the same way you eat the cow. Or the carrot if you're vegetarian. Or the way I eat my celery out of bloody mary most sunday mornings.

If I could just find a hole into heaven
To avoid shoveling coal into the great furnace
I've been stitched up a 1000 times
I'm blind and coughing my lounges up
My face looks old and joints are stiff

But things will it'll get better if we do it together
If we just take it day by day
I would just like to hold
My father one last time
But I'm afraid my heart is too weak

I'm eternally tormented
All I have is in a chest
I'm filled with adrenalin
I'm eternally tormented
God let me be eternally tormented

Put yourself in my place
So maybe you'll understand
That they'll never let me
Into your heaven

Six men and six hands hold this coffin tightly
Nobody knows who's next in line
Soon it'll be my turn. The night is over
But no one can tell me what's to be

What the hell are all you internet kids doing? Ron Paul is not a good idea.
Sure he's anti-war and anti-drugwar but are any of paying attention to his other ideas? It seems that everyone seems to ignore the fact that he's pro-life.
He not only voted for but, in fact, introduced the Sanctity of Life Act of 2005 that would define the beginning of life at conception and has even called himself an "unshakable foe of abortion."
Ron Paul is opposed to any individuals "not related by blood or marriage" adopting children and, in conjunction, is opposed to same sex marriage thereby preventing gay couples not only from getting married but also from starting any kind of family. Although, to his credit, he did oppose the constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.
Congressman Paul is also opposed to any form of national healthcare. He would like the United States to remain the only western industrialized nation to not provide free healthcare to it's citizens. If you ask me, that's about as ridiculous as allowing the fire department to send you a bill after saving your life and your home from a devastating fire, or worrying about calling the police when your house is broken into because you can't afford to pay the "cop bill."
But it seems that, despite all this, Ron Paul has gained an immense amount of support from communities of people on the internet. I can't hit my stumbleupon button or check videosift without seeing some Ron Paul zealot blindly pushing a candidate that I suspect holds views that directly oppose his supporters. This is really weird too, considering that he opposed Bill HR 5252 Amendment 987 which would have legally protected network neutrality.
Ron Paul doesn't want the government to fight in these wars or spend so much money fighting the drug war but he also doesn't want the government to do anything else for you like allow you to get stitched up at the hospital without worrying about a giant bill or even protecting your precious internet.

Whoa, the Taliban had an armored vehicle? I never thought about that possibility. Then again, it's probably not surprising that a few of the old Russian vehicles left in-country can still work; put gas in it, stick a machine gun on the roof mount, and you have a relatively strong mini-tank that can cruise around and stitch up ISAF troops (until the antitank weapons come out).

Parents should not need to demand a natural birth. Healthy people should default to natural childbirth.

At our home birth, the midwife was qualified to deal with minor problems (a torn bit of skin hooked by an exiting toe that she stitched up in our case) and the hospital was standing by in case any serious problems arose.

this is not the video I would choose to head this cause, but upvote for the heated discussion.
