Educated/Innate Intelligence

Apparently the educated brain is functional even when we sleep. It enables us to keep from falling out of bed because it remembers that the edge of the bed exists and when we get too close to it we will fall. The infant rolls out of bed hence the need for a crib and side rails. The infant has an ii which is limited by limitations of matter so it cannot know the edge and the danger until it's too late. Not rolling out of bed appears to be a learned response

Wish I Said That

The government wants to pass laws controlling what we eat, supplements, our water, etc. How come they think it's okay to control our digestive system but we should not pass laws regarding a woman's reproductive system?

Recognizing the Metaphysical

Just as medicine by ignoring the non-material aspect of man runs into problems, science dealing only with empirical information comes up short. In a like manner, the chiropractic profession when it does not recognize the immaterial aspect of man will fail.

A Thot

The pendulum of my granfather clock is moving in response to the gravitational pull on the weights. An intelligence designed the clock so that the universal forces are adapted for constructive purposes. It also necessitates an intelligence to keep it going (raising the weight every week).

Settling for Less

It is amazing how little we are satisfied with in chiropractic. I once showed a video to a group of straight chiropractic students. The first part was a panel discussion on chiropractic by a group of mixers. It was an absolutely poor explanation of chiropractic. The second part was a better explanation of chiropractic. It used nerve interference instead of a strictly musculoskeletal approach. The problem was that it also missed the mark bya mile. However the students saw the relative merit of the second in comparison to the first. They would settle for the second because the first was so much worse. Yet the second would have ultimately taken the public just as afar of the field of straight of straight chiropractic as the first. Just in a different direction.

Professional Education

A professional education should have more applicable and practical teaching than superfluos. Is chiropractic professional on that basis? Much of our education is never used..even for mixers. Conversely much of medicine is professional. When we brag that our students learn more neurology, anatomy, and physiology than an md, the question is are we getting unnecessary education? Apparently the medical profession realizes that that much education in those areas is not necessary.

Unity

All chiropractors recognize that there are certain procedures that are not part of the practice of chiropractic. The problem is that only one group of is in agreement as to what they are. The straight chiropractor says that every procedure other than the location, analysis, and correction of vertebral subluxation is not part of the practice of chiropractic. This is the point of unity. We can all unite on that. No one can agree on everything or even anything else. What then is the point of unity these organizations espouse? ACA wants to unite on the inability to agree on what is the practice of chiropractic. WCA unites on the idea that no one care what is the practice of chiropractic and the ICA unites on outwardly agreeing but inwardly disagreeing on what it is.
