Reading the News Poisons the Mind

Reading the News Poisons the Mind

Trying to decipher the truth using news reports is almost impossible.  The problem is that whatever media that is dispensing the “news” has an agenda.  They will report on something with their interests in mind.  None of this drivel has any good effect on the mind because we can’t understand anything unless we know the truth.  Trying to form an opinion based on insufficient understanding is a big waste of time.  The conclusions we come up with may or may not be true and if they are wrong, then we have wasted our time reading or viewing these reports.  Our time is limited so it is important to use it wisely.

Our minds are being manipulated toward one thing or another and we are not gaining any useful knowledge.  Without the useful knowledge, there is nothing to apply in a constructive manner.  The reality seems to be that the “news” is just another form of indoctrination and it is only useful to the perpetrators of it.  

The bad “news” can also be used to distract from things that are actually important.  The “news” is like “thinking with someone else’s head.”  Videos can be the same thing in that we are looking at the content out of someone else’s mind.  So it is important to use right reason along with common sense in order to determine the validity of any writing or video.  It doesn’t matter what is the issue.  In order to have any productive thoughts on any subject, the truth must first be discovered before any intelligent thought or discussion can be obtained.  Governments and religions are the worst liars on earth.  I believe that because look at their bad results.  And if they manage to do some good, that is used to cover up their evil deeds.  They are complete failures because they go against the natural order by not being honest and truthful.

I always like to use this question: What facts do you have that XXXX is true and correct?  If there are no facts to use as evidence, then the subject matter is a waste of time.  By getting the necessary facts the truth will be self-evident.  In most cases, the news poisons the mind because of inaccurate or incomplete information.
