DDT http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDT and antibiotics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibiotics were synthesized chemical products aimed to combat the outbreak of crops destructing insects and disease causing bacteria as a consequence of exponential growth in human population, need for cultivated land, and subsequent urbanization. As far back as 1939, DDT held the promise of eliminating completely all vectors of malaria, plaque, typhus, and yellow fever. DDT was also capable of protecting crops from harmful insects’ invasion; it also had the chance of wiping out several deadly diseases and at the same time increasing food production. On the other hand, the discovery of penicillin and the manufacture of antibiotics almost completely eradicated the spread of infectious diseases caused by water borne, land borne, or air borne microorganism. However, as time passed the death, deterioration, and extinction of higher food chain creatures ingesting DDT contaminated food supplies and the indiscriminate use of antibiotics made possible the opportunity for the insects and bacteria returning with a vengeance, staging a day of the locust and a field day of the drug-resistant tuberculosis microbe.

Locusts are most certainly making their appearance known,by wiping out
entire crops of food,plagues of the insects are again waging warfare on the
farming communities of mostly third world countries.As for mosquitos,and
malaria,I have had to take many tablets to prevent catching this deadly illness,when visiting hot climes,local people however cannot afford these
drugs,and die in there millions!
kind regards michael.

as was I when during my backpacking in SE Asia, I just decided that chloroquine and paludrine made me sicker than the actual disease would (and I am usually a magnet for mosquitos). I had talked to a few people who had malaria and decided this to be the wiser course. I was fine. But back to DDT. I understand that these toxins are very hard to eliminate. (when I was in Vietnam, I heard and saw babies STILL being born affected by Agent Orange). Remember Thalidimyde (sp?)-it is still being used in S. America. I don't trust chemical companies to conduct proper analysis (or to be forthright about any questionable findings). I try only to eat organic food, I worry about GM'd produce.
To a certain extent, we need to allow microbes in our world (circle of life, etc.). If my pet theory is correct and we lifeforms only exist to host viruses, it would explain why, when we try to eliminate them, we end up eliminating ourselves.

Absolutely! Not only symbiosis, but the fact that we belong to each other. I think this is the All that Michael Kirkpatrick has been talking about.

cousin indeed!!!!!

Kind of like the yin-yang? I think the One and the All might just be different names for the same thing...

ment,both are needed to balance and allow manifestation to "become" but
as you so rightly say,the two aspects are one of the same!
