Also, seeing what has been posted in this thread so far reminded me I wanted to read Alan M. Dershowitz: The Case For Israel. I already got that in my bookshelf.

Worse Than the Disease? Reviewing Some Possible Unintended Consequences of the mRNA Vaccines Against COVID-19

Stephanie Seneff Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, MIT, Cambridge MA, 02139, USA
Greg Nigh Naturopathic Oncology, Immersion Health, Portland, OR 97214, USA

Abstract
Operation Warp Speed brought to market in the United States two mRNA vaccines, produced by Pfizer and Moderna. Interim data suggested high efficacy for both of these vaccines, which helped legitimize Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) by the FDA. However, the exceptionally rapid movement of these vaccines through controlled trials and into mass deployment raises multiple safety concerns. In this review we first describe the technology underlying these vaccines in detail. We then review both components of and the intended biological response to these vaccines, including production of the spike protein itself, and their potential relationship to a wide range of both acute and long-term induced pathologies, such as blood disorders, neurodegenerative diseases and autoimmune diseases. Among these potential induced pathologies, we discuss the relevance of prion-protein-related amino acid sequences within the spike protein. We also present a brief review of studies supporting the potential for spike protein “shedding”, transmission of the protein from a vaccinated to an unvaccinated person, resulting in symptoms induced in the latter. We finish by addressing a common point of debate, namely, whether or not these vaccines could modify the DNA of those receiving the vaccination. While there are no studies demonstrating definitively that this is happening, we provide a plausible scenario, supported by previously established pathways for transformation and transport of genetic material, whereby injected mRNA could ultimately be incorporated into germ cell DNA for transgenerational transmission. We conclude with our recommendations regarding surveillance that will help to clarify the long-term effects of these experimental drugs and allow us to better assess the true risk/benefit ratio of these novel technologies.

Thanks, downloaded. If you are interested i stumbled upon this today, not really a book but hits on a similar theme. Few links inside the write up that are worth reading as well.

Bioethics Of Experimental Covid Vaccine Deployment under EUA.
Robert W Malone, MD, MS1
I provide this brief essay for the TrialSite community because you are involved or at least interested in human subject clinical research. By way of background, please understand that I am a vaccine specialist and advocate, as well as the original inventor of the mRNA vaccine (and DNA vaccine) core platform technology. But I also have extensive training in bioethics from the University of Maryland, Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, and Harvard Medical School, and advanced clinical development and regulatory affairs are core competencies for me.

I know who that is and also have been acutely aware of the ethical implications of genetic manipulation since we started going down that rabbit-hole in the mid-90s. So let's just leave it at that or move the discussion off-forum to a more suitable location.

I just bought two paper books for studying:

The Body Electric, Robert O Becker, Gary Selden

andyprough · 2021-12-28 06:56:22

I'm reading the Greek Interlinear New Testament to improve my Koine Greek. When I'm done, I'll read the Hebrew Interlinear Old Testament to improve my Biblical Hebrew. I'd prefer to read the Septuagint version of the OT, not sure if a good interlinear is available. I'm going to try to get both of them read by the end of 2022, but it's a tall order. I read about 2 hours today and only got through 3 chapters in Matthew. I'll probably have to improve on that pace quite a bit to finish within the year. It's hard to read for speed, because some conjugations and some phrases are so interesting that I have to stop and study their lexical entries for a bit.

Hebrew is the harder of the two for me. For some reason, reading from right to left is a bit of a strain and can give me a headache if I keep it up for too long. A nice thing about Hebrew is that it doesn't hit you with a mouthful of consecutive vowels like Koine Greek does. Whether sounding the words out mentally or verbally, Hebrew has a very nice pattern to it, almost like the rhythm of a well played percussion instrument.

I read some of Peter and Ginger's writing on psychiatric drugs, challenging the big pharma drug industry. They are a powerful couple of counter cultural intellectuals. Let us know what you think of this new book if you get a chance, I'd be interested to read your thoughts.

Osho's lectures used to be on public access cable tv in Austin most afternoons when I was a teenager. He went by Baghwan Shree Rajneesh back then. He's got some disciples that put up a lot of video content on youtube these days. I enjoy their logical consistency - they seem to live out their philosophy in all its aspects, even if it comes at a great cost to them personally. That's a rare quality in people since about the early 70's. Reminds me of the Dalai Lama and some of the Rinpoche's - a lot of the same qualities of extreme personal integrity regardless of the cost.

@andyprough

I heard about this book from Dr. Peter McCullough's latest interviews. I bought 'Covid-19 and the global predators: we are the prey' book to study thoroughly about Covid-19 plandemic.

Over the last two years I've felt democratic, republic of country transformed into a fascist state or totalitarian regime. In my country a lot of people have been dead or gotten serious medical complications after taking Covid-19 vaccines following the vaccine mandatory policy. It is disturbing. Me and many others experienced that challenging against the Covid-19 narrative results immediate ban or deletion of posts on virtually all online forum.

The book has the format of a big research report about Covid-19 including 1,100+ references. I don't think average book readers would like it.

In the 70s and early 80s, Sugar Blues and Confessions of a Medical Heretic and others exposed the manipulations that have gotten us to exactly where we are so no surprise to me that we are in this mess.

Just finished Galaxias by Stephen Baxter.

The dialogue was awful, the prose stilted and the characterisation crude but Mr. Baxter does big-concept hard sci-fi better than anybody. I only got the book from the library yesterday but found it almost impossible to put down. Highly recommended.

Head_on_a_Stick · 2022-02-19 09:03:56

Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr. Beautifully written but it keeps making me sad. A masterpiece.
