Aquarian Age Spirituality

Unaffiliated spiritual movements, along with Complementary therapies and Alternative medicine, are now enjoying a huge upsurge in interest, In fact the biggest upsurge since the 1930s.
In America the pharmaceutical companies have been backed by certain hard-line extremist religious sects, to ban outright all alternative medicines and practices, which they say are; “unchristianâ€.
We have seen a constant stream of attacks on alternative medicinal theory, by the same pharmaceutical syndicates, who own most newspapers.
In Britain your General Practitioner works more for the drug companies, than he does for you, we are all familiar with the Thalidomide tragedy, where the drug companies were backed by general practitioners, in denying continually that the deformed children were anything to do with their drugs, but a whole host of other Allopathic drugs such as, Serevent, Seroxat, Vioxx, Opren Debendox, have been quietly withdrawn as extremely dangerous, some estimates of those occupying hospital beds through doctors blunders and drug side effects are listed as 1 in 4, and this is why the drug companies employ quack scientists, pseudo researchers and conjurors to attack everything from Vitamins to massage and Chiropractic, recent study results that showed doctors claimed that 93% of patients had a poor response rate to anti-depressants and many allopathic anti-depressants were no better than placebos.
Pharmokinetics, is the word for how the body deals with a drugs absorption rates, distribution in the tissues, metabolism excretion, and effect rates, and because animal testing has proved so unreliable, you cant really expect results to cross species, you must expect problems, many pharmaceutical giants test drugs in third world countries, Africa in particular has been the base for increasing tests, and if a drug does ruin your health, you have no redress in law as class actions can only be accepted in the country of company origin, another drug company wheeze, is to have the drug given a different name for each country it is available, Serevent the asthma drug was called in the U.S.A Advent,and in another Attivent, the Food and Drug Administration people ( F.D.A ) say this is one of the five biggest killer drugs on their record base.
Studies show that the public do not trust their doctors to be honest with them, and doctors can now be sued for incompetence, except they cover each others backs and make it a very difficult process, the medical terminology for doctors with no people skills and there are many, is â€Fruitful Metaphor†this disillusionment, extends also into conventional mainstream religions, People are demanding more spiritual democracy, to find their own path, David Hume put this so well in his quotation;
“In all ages of the world, priests have been the enemies of libertyâ€
John Oman goes further when he said;
“No other sphere is so liable to misuse, Religious professions provide the largest scope for hypocrisy, and religious creeds for enslaving the mind to forms, and religious duties for what may be fanatical or fanciful, there is no more proof that religion is unreal or unprofitable, than the growing of weeds disproved the value of good or evilâ€
The search for their spiritual identity, has meant, many are taking the best from all religions, certainly, we have seen no proper leadership in Christianity, with no opposition to the “dodgy Dossiers†which resulted in the aggressive wars on Iraq and Afghanistan, constant arguments over the split of State and Church, and the sexually disturbed priests issue, have led many to seek in other areas for their inner nutriment, the result has been a blossoming of person centred philosophies, as described by Prince Charles, where many feel they no longer need a man in fancy dress to stand between them and their god, one could liken belonging to a mass produced religion, to developing your own inner needs to wearing an off-the-peg suit, to a made to measure garment, one will fit in some places and irritate in others, whereas the other is measured to you all over.
Politics is another area where people are experiencing a sense of revulsion, any place where leaders like in the U.S.A and Britain can fudge up wars for profit based on racial hatred, cant be right and many now refuse to vote on principal.
This collection of outdated ideas on Allopathic medicine where the Lancet magazine says your Doctor will give on average just 6 minutes to every patient, then dish out often harmful chemical tablets, the fact that the mainstream religions have failed their followers, and kept them in check with envy and fear, and the corruption of contemporary politics has meant the majority realise they are lied to again and again, and want no more of it.
These free thinkers are known collectively as “New Agersâ€Â and by discarding the old outworn philosophies of Health Religion and Politics, are offering a fresh way to see the future, and hope that the world they leave their children and grandchildren is a better one than they inherited.
