The Highway Forums General Discussion Open Forum Covid-19 and Pharmaceutical Companies

There is a video going around, that is a bit scary concerning Covid-19 and vaccines and pharmaceutical companies.
I would like to know how to find out if this could be legit or not?



If it is true, what can be done about it?

Next News Network isn't well known and Dr. Shiva Ayadurai isn't exactly recognized for being totally reliable in his claims, e.g., he insists that he invented e-mail at age 14. The program went offline a few years ago and then reappeared as a YouTube channel exclusively. I can't seem to find a lot about either the Next News Network nor Ayadurai, but after reading many of the comments under the video, without question, this channel draws most conspiracy advocates and reactionaries.

Sooooooo, bottom line for me personally is I wouldn't trust what they broadcast as "truth".

Thanks, it sounds fishy to me. However, it also could be dangerous if enough people get hold of it and take action.

Tom

Do you have anymore information about Dr. Shiva Ayadurai?

It appears people are falling for this, mainly because they are convinced Bill Gates is a very evil man; so it must be true. Sigh...

Not too much of any interest, at least on my part from doing searches on Google. But then again, if one is prone to believe that Google's "algorithms" are designed to block everything they don't want people to know that is not inline with their leftist agenda (true, Google does block some sites they don't like) it would answer why there is so little reliable information about the man. He may be brilliant in his field but he does draw people who are conspiracy-minded which tends to make those who aren't of that mind question his integrity and/or his ideas.

Lastly, if you would use a little more discernment and avoid these places you obviously are drawn too which allegedly are populated with "Reformed", "Baptist", "Calvinist" or whoever you believe should be of like mind as yourself, you wouldn't find yourself so disturbed over nonsensical antithetical thinking by those people. Perhaps you have a tendency to be a bit gullible and/or trusting? (cf. Rom 9:27; 11:5)

Just so you know, it is because I am not gullible is the very reason I asked these questions.
Also, in this particular case, someone I love (my elderly mother) has been taken in by this and is spreading it to everyone she knows.
I do not know if it will do any good, but I would like to at least try to inform myself to be able to give a response to things like this.
My mom has done this before and I have showed her after I checked the sources out for myself if they were legit.

I am learning however, that rarely has it been worth my time and energy to try to correct error when I see it.
Case and point, as someone who holds to Covenant Theology, I have been accused by some who hold to NCT of living under the law. When I tried to defend myself the monitors took the side of the people who held to NCT and I was warned about it.
This was a Face book page dedicated to John Macarthur and although I know MacArthur is a Dispi, I doubt very much MacArthur would have said something like that to his friend the late RC Sproul.

Wisdom, in part, is knowing when to "play" and when to "fold"!

Very true! Cue in Kenny Rogers song.

Sometimes I am in a site when It is like I am holding four aces, only to say my 4 aces beats your pair of twos.
Yet everyone says, not as far as we are concerned. :

In reality, all they are really expressing is... "Don't confuse me with the facts!!! I've got my mind all made up."
