That being said however...modern medicines have caused many problems as well...and yes even death.
Have you ever really listened to a television commercial touting the benefits of one medication or another? I mean really listened? Now did your glasses allow you to see the fine print warnings that come with the medicine as the commercial was ending? Did you hear the announcers voice list off the warnings? His/her calm voice quickly warning you of all the dangers and often life threatening side-effects of the medicine, while you watched people laughing, running, picking up and swinging their grandchildren, people riding their bikes, flying kites, being intimate with their partner. Did you hear it?
What about the ads in the magazines? Did you read those too? The words they want you to see are bold, loud and clearly printed...their message "this will help you"..."your life will better if you take this"...easily perceived by the smiling model. But the words they don't want you to see? Well...anyone got a magnifying glass handy?
