On the plus side, it should be fun.
Am I my brother’s keeper?
That is the issue behind all of this. God asked Cain a question. Cain didn’t like it. Cain responded with his own “Brother’s Keeper” paradigm. The Left, including the Church Left, has adopted Cain’s paradigm rather than God’s paradigm.
In God’s paradigm we are our Brother’s Brother. We are not our Brother’s Keeper.
A God fearing brother educates and offers the choice of good or bad, truth or lie. But one brother does not use force to impose his way on his brother.
The FDA has the choice of the Judeo-Christian way, or of Cain’s way.
In the Judeo-Christian way the FDA would require accurate and complete labeling in both techie and simple English of products.
A step further, the FDA might determine only the techie description can properly inform. Thus it requires a doctor or pharmacist to explain it to the customer.
A step too far is to tell the customer what he can and cannot buy. Over-the-counter creams are not effective on my foot fungus. The prescription cream is effective. The only possible adverse effect of the effective cream is if I stick it in my eye or take it internally. Well, that is true of everything from dirt on the street to pins and needles to used motor oil.
Why does the FDA not regulate EVERYTHING? The simple answer is that a person who believes in Brother’s Keeper will increase his power to control our lives to the extent we let the power hungry (but well intentioned) doo-gooder go.
Because our unique position in the world, the benefits will overflow. We will always be the biggest "giver" of the world.
He is invested in immortality.
