~Sacre Tactics!~

I felt the need to talk about how much the amount of health scares and terror threats have increased in the past few years.

This morning there was a heated discussion between Dr.Oz and the some journalist regarding the levels of arsenic in apple juice due to the fact that we get most of our apples from China.BUT later to hear Dr.Oz say that there aren't high levels of arsenic in the juice and can't kill you-it's just about long term use of the juice of decades...Really?? 

It's frustrating that we live a world that always wants something fear or want to scare others.Ever since I can remember there has been numerous food warnings on everyday common foods,like when there has been several spinach e coli detections and tainted beef.Yes,we should take every per caution necessary,but we can not live our lives avoiding several different foods because the news keeps scaring us about it...Have you noticed that they never announce when or how the "issue" was resolved?? Instead it just fades away and people either go back to eating it and living normally or others completely ban it from their homes.

Another scare tactic that has been in effect since September 11,2001, has been the threat of another terrorist attack...The president alone receives hundreds of thousands of death threats,regardless of whose in office,yet we don't hear about any new threat towards him.With this terror alert system it allows the media and others manipulate how people feel about certain situations,locations,cultures and patriotism. I noticed whenever a terror alert is issued,most people avoid flying and glue themselves to all the news channels or talking about it to other people,only to distract from more important things like....getting saved,evangelising,ending hunger in our country and so on....

Don't get consumed in in these fear tactics...use wisdom to discern what is real and what is just a ploy to get you off track and in fear.
