'Church' to offer 'miracle cure' despite FDA warnings against drinking bleach
The Guardian ^ | @edpilkington | Ed Pilkington

Posted on 04/20/2019 7:20:20 AM PDT by BenLurkin

A group calling itself Genesis II Church of Health and Healing plans to convene at a hotel resort in Washington state on Saturday to promote a “miracle cure” that claims to cure 95% of all diseases in the world by making adults and children, including infants, drink industrial bleach.

The group is inviting members of the public through Facebook to attend what they call their “effective alternative healing” at the Icicle Village Resort in Leavenworth on Saturday morning. The organizer of the event, Tom Merry, has publicized the event on his personal Facebook page by telling people that learning how to consume the bleach “could save your life, or the life of a loved one sent home to die”.

The “church” is asking attendants of the meeting to “donate” $450 each, or $800 per couple, in exchange for receiving membership to the organization as well as packages of the bleach, which they call “sacraments”. The chemical is referred to as MMS, or “miracle mineral solution or supplement”, and participants are promised they will acquire “the knowledge to help heal many people of this world’s terrible diseases”.

In fact, MMS consists of chlorine dioxide, a powerful bleach that is used both on textiles and in the industrial treatment of water. It has been banned in several countries around the world for use as a medical treatment.

In the US, the chemical cannot be sold for human consumption. In 2010, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) put out a public warning after it was notified of many injuries to consumers from drinking the fluid, with symptoms that included nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, severe dehydration and one person who had a life-threatening reaction.

The FDA issued the blunt advice: “Consumers who have MMS should stop using it immediately and throw it away.”

When you’re dead from drinking bleach, you are no longer complaining about your illness. Cured! Guessing it doesn’t go down smooth.

Rubbing alcohol works better in ears.

Is the information media any different at promulgating lies?

Mediastinitis from a ruptured esophagus is not a pleasant way to check out.

I’m trying not to laugh because that would be like bad or something.

Yes, they are that stupid.

He might as well tell them not to eat Tide Pods.

You can bet a bunch of them would openly defy him.

And then after openly defying him, they would blame him for their own stupidity.

Add in a cup of Oxyclean to that meal and you’d be sparkly inside!

Bleach cleaning the gene pool.

That’s somewhat poetic.

For the overture and canon blasts, you need to plan out the performance properly.

You need to supplement cabbage and beans into your diet for the canon blasts and let your bleach and tide pods handle the rest of the work.

Who is going to decide what is a “proper” church?

The Romans did that. So do the Muslims. It works out so great. /S

True, but I was thinking of the children (and infants!).
