something useful.

"Something useful" should include labeling both the infomercials and the
products with this warning: "Only suckers buy this crap."

The problem is not a matter of intelligence by one of being brainwashed
into believing that "hunger is bad."

Hey Chump,

Why the hell do you insist on crossposting discussions that were never
crossposted to begin with? Keep your board certified quack bullshit to

Bruce, I guess it is better late than never. The companies are going to
pay a pretty penny. I believe one a day vitamins are paying the biggest
penalty.

Why? You clearly have no intention of fixing your "iniquities." I am
willing to forgive those who are interested in actually reforming their
behavior. You sir have demonstrated that you only want to continue your
unwanted behavior, so do not look for forgiveness from me. I suspect
most others on alt.support.diabetes share my view.

It would be good for his heart.

A person who does not forgive others burdens his/her heart with hatred.

Such a heart eventually fails.

May GOD continue to heal our hearts with HIS living water curing our
diabetes, depression, anxiety, or panic so that we can love our
neighbors a little more and LORD Jesus Christ a whole lot more, dear
neighbor Shawn whom I love unconditionally.

Prayerfully in Christ's amazing love,

As for knowing who are the very elect, these you will know by the
unconditional love they have for everyone including their enemies
(Matthew 5:44-45, 1 Corinthians 13:3, James 2:14-17).

that would be 100% of the group and every other medical support group
as well.
