The amount of drugs that people take, it's absolutely shocking.
Most people are on drugs.
The Health Ranger Report.
Everybody's worried about the zombie apocalypse.
It's already here, people!
It's time for the Health Ranger Report.
And now, from naturalnews.com, here's Mike Adams.
You know, we all have mental models of how the world works, and as a curious person and a scientist, I'm always interested in other people's mental models.
And, you know, on any issue, whether it's economics or politics or climate and the environment, science and so on, mental models are very interesting, and most people hold very inconsistent mental models, which means that those models are broken.
Because a correct mental model will be consistent across observable activity.
For example, if you just look at physics, You know, earlier, early Newtonian physics was a model, and this mental model was relatively accurate.
It matched observations, in other words.
You could take Newtonian physics, and you could apply it to observable events in the physical world, and you could predict the outcome of the position of objects or the momentum of objects and so on using the What Newton had observed and correctly modeled in some mathematical formulas.
So that's a pretty good model.
Now, it's not 100% accurate because if you get down into atomic level events, then you have quantum effects and you have quarks and you have, you know, atomic particles and so on that have weird effects at that level.
But for most of the observable world, Newtonian physics is a pretty good model.
Now, let's turn to LGBT and the gay community and the transgender community because their mental models have been really, really twisted and inconsistent, especially lately.
And I want to mention this to you.
And by the way, I'm not opposed to people being gay.
I'm kind of a social libertarian.
I've got friends who are gay.
I've got friends who are Christians, friends who are gay, friends who are straight, friends who are homosexual.
Whatever.
You know, to me, I'm a human freedom kind of person, and I say, you know, you should be free to live your life the way you want to live it as long as you're not, you know, pushing your beliefs on someone else or harming someone else directly, you know, things like that.
So I'm not anti-gay, by the way, just as a background to this.
However, I find it very interesting.
For many, many years, remember when, like, a lot of churches were trying to, quote, cure people of gayness?
Remember that?
And there were, like, gay counseling centers.
I think some of them still exist, actually.
Gay counseling centers and gay treatment centers.
And they would, you know, quote, cure people of gayness and try to revert them back to heterosexuality.
And this was, of course, strongly, strongly condemned by the gay community.
And what reasoning did the gay community give for this condemnation?
They said that you're born gay.
They said being gay isn't a choice.
You are born that way.
Whether you're a gay man or a gay woman, you are born that way.
So you're born gay.
You don't decide to be gay, and therefore treatment of reversing a choice makes no sense.
So understand this.
The gay community has for decades said that you are born gay.
It's not a choice.
It's not a lifestyle decision.
You're born that way.
In other words, you come out of the womb.
You come out of the birth canal gay.
Alright?
Now that's what they believe and they still explain it that way.
And I'm not arguing this point one way or another.
I'm just establishing the history of the gay narrative.
Because now we get into the transgender question.
Now the transgender community says You're not born a gender.
There was a recent poll that said 77% of college educated Democrats disagree with the idea that you're born a certain gender.
They believe that gender is something that you choose.
And because it's a choice, you can change that choice at any time.
So you can be born a male, and then when you're 16 or whatever age, you can decide that you're a female.
You can change.
You're a transgender.
Or if you're born female, that you can change your gender into a male.
Now, this is a mental model and it's very interesting to me because it contradicts the gay mental model.
Remember, the gay mental model says you're born gay.
You can't change it.
You don't have any control over it and you can't choose not to be gay.
But if you're transgender, if you want to be transgender, you can because transgenderism or gender is a choice, they say.
You're not born a male or a female.
This is the mental model of the transgender community.
Now, of course, if you're a rational thinker, this is going to bring up some big questions in your mind.
How can both of these be true?
How can you be born gay but not born male or female?
Right?
This is an inconsistency, which would lead rational people to believe that there's something wrong with this model.
Because clearly, when you're born, you have the biology of either a male or a female.
And what the LGBT community does is they play a little logic trick here.
They say that you are, quote, assigned a gender at birth by the delivery doctor.
And that this assignment...
Is subjective.
They say you're literally assigned gender at birth.
Like, you come out of the womb, I mean, you know, of the birth canal.
You come out, and apparently you're a gender-neutral, you have no sex organs or something.
I'm not sure how their mental model works at this point.
But they say, then the doctor declares you're either male or female, and magically at that moment, wham!
You either have a penis or a vagina, and all the other organs and hormones that go along with that.
Now, of course, such an idea is nonsense.
It was determined whether you're going to be a male or a female very, very early in the embryonic development stages.
Now, I'm not an expert in embryonic development, so I don't know at what point there is sex differentiation in the expression of the genotype.
But it happens somewhere, obviously, after conception and before birth.
Because penises don't magically appear after birth.
They are developing.
The sex organs of a male or a female are developing everything.
Everything, the brain, the bones, the hormones, the entire endocrine system, even the eggs that are in a female child's body.
When they are born, that female is born with the eggs, all the eggs that she will have for her lifetime.
And a lot of people don't know this because, of course, most people are scientifically illiterate.
So they don't know that young newborn girls are born or infant, you know, female infants are born with the eggs in their body that will be fertilized later in their lives to give birth to their own sons and daughters.
So clearly, you are a female before you're born.
Otherwise, how did the eggs get there?
Does the birth doctor magically declare you to be a female and then wave a magic wand and create eggs inside your body?
You know, I don't think so.
But apparently that's what the transgender community believes.
Because, again, they say that you are assigned a gender at birth as if before the assignment you were not a gender.
And that is, of course, obscenely stupid.
Now, the bigger question in all of this, maybe a question you have as well, is if gender is a choice and they claim you can change your gender, that you can magically change gender, Your biological gender, then how come being gay isn't a choice?
It would seem to me that if you're going to be consistent in your mental model that If you're pro-choice on these issues, that you would believe that being transgender is a choice and being gay is a choice, right?
If you're pro-choice?
I'm not talking about abortion.
I'm just saying if you believe the choice narrative here, then if you can choose to be a man or a woman, why can't you choose to be gay or straight?
So it seems to me that the gay community needs to have a conference with the transgender community and sort this out.
Because they are telling us contradictory stories at this point, and yet all their initials go together, LGBT, or LGBTQ, or whatever they're adding to that now.
But the LG is contradicting the BT. Or at least the T, you know, for transgender.
So what are we supposed to believe, those of us who are not part of the LGBT community?
Wouldn't it be important that we have accurate understandings of how your world works?
And yet we get contradictory messages from the people in the LGBT community.
So you see, it all falls apart because they can't say That you're born a transgender.
Because that would be impossible.
You are born a gender.
You're not born a transgender.
You are born a gender.
You're either born male or female.
If you decide you want to change that, that's transgender.
And that obviously comes long after you're born.
But for those who are gay, they can claim that they're born gay because it's really a state of mind, not a state of physical biology.
So somebody is wrong.
On this point, somebody doesn't have a good mental model.
Somebody's messed up here.
Clearly.
And we want some clear answers on this because we want to understand the LGBT world with greater clarity.
So we need some accurate mental models.
Is it a choice or is it not a choice?
So if transgenderism is a choice, then being gay must be a choice, which must mean that you could choose not to be gay if you're going to be consistent, right?
Is that possible?
I know someone who used to be gay and is no longer gay.
By the way, a woman used to be, well, lesbian, you know, female gay, and she's no longer gay.
It was a phase of Something that she tried, and I remember she was a militant lesbian.
She was like hardcore lesbian marching, you know, in the streets, calling for everyone to become lesbians, because, you know, some lesbians are like that, which is fine.
I mean, to each his own, or her own, in that case.
But she was like all hardcore lesbian, and then, a couple years later, running into her again, ah, she's straight, she's married, she married a guy.
So she's heterosexual now.
So she changed her mind.
Well, what about the whole narrative that you're born gay?
Well, this woman changed her mind, so obviously some people can change their minds.
Isn't that interesting?
Now again, I'm not condemning or celebrating people on either side of this.
I always believe in personal freedom.
I'm a social libertarian.
You know, love who you want.
Sleep with who you want.
I mean, as long as they're not underage.
You know, don't do the...
Who's doing that?
Yeah, the Hollywood thing that's been exposed by Corey Feldman, right?
You know, don't go after little kitties, obviously.
The pedo-gate stuff.
But if you're dating and you're marrying and living with adults, consenting informed adults, that's your business as far as I'm concerned.
I'm not condemning your choices.
I'm just trying to understand your mental model here.
Because we're always told these things, and if you really ask questions like I'm asking here, a lot of these things don't add up.
I'm just trying to understand.
That's all.
In any case, I'm going to wrap this up, giving you some questions.
Maybe you can ask your gay friends for some answers.
Or maybe you're gay and you've got answers.
Well, chime in.
Post some comments.
Explain your system.
I'm genuinely curious.
I'd like to know more.
I'd like to learn how this works.
Because transgenderism, to me, seems like a denial of biological reality.
But maybe you've got some other interesting quantum physics sex organ explanation that moves us into the multidimensional reality beyond Newtonian biology or something.
I don't know.
I'd like to hear it.
I want to see what you come up with.
This is going to be interesting.
