“To our surprise we have not been able to locate even one scientific study on the proved harmful effects of addiction.”

- Dr. George H. Stevenson, British Columbia, 1956

All of society seems to be geared towards the business of death. War is highly profitable and the combined arms makers around the world make trillions of dollars a year. Even in my town we have Colt Canada which makes assault rifles, machine guns, grenade launchers and chain guns for the military and police forces both domestically and around the world. These weapons are designed solely for murder and murder well they do. We also have Raytheon which is the world’s largest producer of guided missiles. They make billions of dollars in missiles, guidance systems, lasers, computers, radars, military communication systems and satellite components. There are also various other companies, factories and facilities which support at one level or another, the business of death. They make components for fighter jets, military computers, armoured fighting vehicles, military satellites and radars.

It is not just the production or support of actual fighting equipment that is the business of death. It is also ingrained in all aspects of our society and thinking through media and the proliferation of poisons and toxins in our food, water and air. The television news stations, newspapers, movies and video games all contribute to this mentality by promoting, showcasing and profiting from strife. The most violent stories are always on the news, newspapers, television programming, video games and movies. The military equipment is glamorized and idolized in the media like they are metal gods. They rain down death 500 kilograms at a time from the safety of 15 000 metres in the air, going over 950 kilometres per hour at night in radar invisible aircraft, from over 500 kilometre stand off range with pin point laser or satellite guided accuracy; against people that couldn’t even defend themselves from World War One era aircraft and munitions. Sometimes these missions are piloted remotely from Air Force bunkers within the United States, posing no risk to the murderer whatsoever. It is almost like North America has become a war society whose sole function is to cause death and destruction in the world. Even our police are now equally, if not sometimes better equipped and trained than our light infantry and special forces.

Our health care system also seems to thrive on death providing the most dangerous drugs to society; alcohol, cigarettes and dangerous prescription drugs when much safer drugs both for the individual and society are made illegal, highly controlled, expensive, hard to get or stigmatized by ignorance and media. Alcohol is a leading cause of death in the world and the number one cause of violence in society whether through vehicular homicide aka “car accidents” (there is no such thing as an accident), fighting or domestic abuse. This gives the doctors, nurses, police, fire fighters, paramedics, lawyers, prisons, judges, security guards and drinking establishments something to do. The media, hospitals, life insurance, cemeteries, crematoriums, funeral parlors, tombstone makers and flower shops love premature, unnatural deaths and everything that gives them better business.

Let’s also not forget that premature, unnatural death is not just caused by direct violence by one individual to another but also by intense premeditation whereby the hostile individual tries to bring about the injury or death of another through manipulation of people and events. This can be done by provoking, insulting, threatening and then calling police when the individual defends themselves. This can also be done by taunting, spreading lies and rumours to people that are known to be hostile, or exposing people to dangerous or uncomfortable situations. This can be done both on an individual, national and global level in one form or another.

As you can see there is a lot of money to be made from the death of human beings. Those who benefit the most and make their living from death are probably the people that are most responsible for unnatural, premature deaths in our society whether they are consciously aware of it or not it. This fact should be brought to the public’s attention and those responsible should be given the option of a new means of making a living and put under intense scrutiny, then brought to justice.

As a society we should focus on the business of life. Expending energy on providing better and healthier ways of thought and living would turn our society into paradise. Imagine if all the time, energy, creativity and the trillions of dollars that are spent on killing, destroying and maiming with military, media, weapons, police, prisons, hospitals, alcohol and cigarettes were spent on increasing happiness, health, joy, quality of life, real education, proliferating true information to the people and eliminating all suffering and disease. People would wake up every morning excited to be alive and think about new ways to make the world a better place for themselves and everyone else since everything is connected and the universe is one living organism.

Endorphins are the natural feel good, pain killing, euphoric neurotransmitters released in the brain during exercise, excitement, pain, consumption of spicy food, orgasm and LOVE. The word endorphin comes from the two words “endogenous morphine”; endogenous means coming from within and morphine being the natural, euphoric, pain killing and relaxation inducing opiate found in the opium poppy papaver somniferum. I believe the release of endorphin in the brain is the key to all human emotions and actions on this Earth including the most devastating and destructive.

     Anything that brings excitement, even if it endangers one’s self and others (skydiving, base jumping, fighting) or even causes injury to one’s self (tattoos, piercing, body modifications) releases endorphins in the brain. Perhaps some of the most detrimental and destructive activities we see humans partake in are all just last ditch attempts to get their brains to produce endorphins. We now live in an interconnected global society with advanced technology where destructive and violent behaviour can have massive repercussions on the people and all living things on this planet.

     Perhaps some people have a chemical deficiency of endorphins or their brains don’t produce enough of it, leading to destructive behaviour. A lack of endorphins creates a dysphoric state characterized by an unpleasant mood with sadness, anxiety, irritability, restlessness and pain which can quickly lead to a variety of illnesses, stressors and disorders that proceed to an increased risk of destructive behaviour including; abuse, deception, assault, murder and suicide.

     Typically a person in a dysphoric mood or pain will lash out and consequently create pain and dysphoria for others. People that feel good try to do good and make others feel good as well. Most doctors and people due to television commercials and pharmaceutical advertising now believe depression is caused by a lack of serotonin and prescribe selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) aka anti-depressants. Over 30% of the population of North America is on one form of anti-depressant or another. Depression and pain is actually caused by a lack of endorphin and opiates/opioids were used to treat depression up until the early 1960s since they are simply external versions of endorphin.

     After the findings of McMaster University’s Project GENOA (genetics of opioid addiction) we may find that endorphin deficiency is similar to diabetes in that it requires opiate medicine in order for that individual to live and function similar to a diabetic taking daily insulin. One day we will create Endorphin Reuptake Inhibitors (ERIs) to replace damaging SSRIs along with once a month long acting endorphin, opiate injections or patches consisting of mixtures of endorphins, opiates and opioids with Morphine Propionate, Cypionate, Enanthate and Undecanoate. This mixture would have little to no side effects, is non toxic and would have vast benefits to human physical and mental health to those that are suffering.

     We could begin to create paradise on this Earth by first creating it in our minds where it can then spring outwards into our words, actions and behaviour. Endorphins and their exogenous brothers known as opiates and opioids can eliminate pain, suffering, dysphoria and increase happiness, joy, comfort, kindness, empathy and sociability. It has been discovered that morphine is a neurotransmitter and is produced naturally within our own brains making it both an endogenous / exogenous opiate. Endorphins also allow bears and other animals to hibernate as it slows the heart rate, blood pressure, respiration and metabolism, making it the perfect substance for long term space travel or high stress environments like cities, work, nations at war or natural disasters.

     The slowing of the metabolism would be especially helpful in communities that experience food shortages and rationing. These substances also stop cough, diarrhea and help with post traumatic stress disorder, sleep difficulties and can calm and bring relief to those suffering both physically and mentally and would be ideal to people that live and work in disaster areas of all kinds. Opium would bring great relief to many people in developing nations whose main cause of death is complications from prolonged bouts of diarrhea and pneumonia. It is still served to this day in many societies at funerals to help deal with the psychological trauma caused by the death of a loved one.

     All opiates and opioids must be re-legalized and uncontrolled, then made easily and cheaply available for all like they were 100 years ago with unadulterated codeine, morphine, diactylmorphine and all variations thereof and thousands of years prior with opium. This could be done by first legalizing the poppy crop in Afghanistan and all over the world, then making all opiates/opioids on the shelf medicine globally. This would provide opium as medicine to developing nations with high death rates due to diarrhea, pneumonia and diseases that cause pain, cough, high blood pressure and heart attack. Once completely legalized, unrestricted and unscheduled humanity could conduct further research without red tape to create completely safe, longer acting variations of opioids with minimal to zero side effects. Just like insulin is given to diabetics without prescription, opiate/opioid substances need to be made easily available without prescription to those that are suffering physically, emotionally or have trouble dealing with stress and the ensuing diseases, disorders, high blood pressure, heart attacks and aneurysms. Once this is done our world will immediately begin to flourish. It is not a legal issue, but a medical / societal saving action. 

Last spring I had the enjoyment of having a tactical police van called on me for reading a book in a public park. Mind you they didn’t send one police car but a tactical van with at least 2 officers equipped with C-8 assault rifles. You can’t even go outside anymore if you don’t have a quick paced, goal oriented style walk. No leisure time or BOOK READING allowed, especially in public! If you don’t like it you will have tactical police officers observe you and then leave to more pressing matters once they make sure you really are just reading a book.

World War II was not fought like World War I, just like World War III will not be fought like the second. Twenty two years passed from the first world war to the second and radically new technologies, tactics and methods were used which gave Germany the advantage for the first three years until everyone else caught on and adapted to what was going on. Sixty Six years have passed from the second world war until today. If World War III is ever fought it will be completely unrecognizable from all the wars of the past. Bullets, bombs, artillery, missiles, ships, soldiers, tanks and aircraft are not the only way to fight war. There are invisible weapons outside of the human visual and auditory spectrum which surmount the devastation and efficiency of all previous conventional weapon systems combined. Invisible weapons combined with media control and endless entertainment distractions could allow a full scale global military conflict without the knowledge or consent of the populace.
