TOTEM AND TABOO REVISITED: awful and fertile rise of new SUPERSTITIONS

Presentation

multiple personality disorder or dissociative identity disorder [Each personality may alternately inhabit the person's conscious awareness to the exclusion of the others, but one is usually dominant. The various personalities typically differ from one another in outlook, temperament, and body language and give themselves different first names. The condition is generally viewed as resulting from dissociative mental processes — that is, the splitting off from conscious awareness and control of thoughts, feelings, memories, and other mental components in response to situations that are painful, disturbing, or somehow unacceptable to the person experiencing them. Treatment is aimed at integrating the disparate personalities back into a single and unified personality...]

Why are mind-controlled agents, spies, couriers, assassins, better than conscious, salaried agents/spies?

IT IS REALLY HORRIFYING WHAT THEY HAVE DONE IN THEIR STUDIES OF THE MATERNAL INSTINCT. José Delgado was involved in this reasearch. ....it is suggested that the price of universal happiness will be the sacrifice of the most hallowed shibboleths of our culture: MOTHERHOOD, HOME, FAMILY, FREEDOM, even LOVE. The exchange yields an insipid happiness that's unworthy of the name. Its evocation arouses our unease and distaste.  Delgado Index  Jose Delgado's Physical Control of the Mind  Chapter 16: Inhibitory Effects in Animals and Man: Look below at figure 25 (Page 173)

An outraging, resentful file against Huxley's book Brave new world is endorsed into the below quoted site moreover against its search and crave to warn the "sacrifice" of  motherhood, home, family, freedom, even love in the name of an universal [artificial] happiness: BRAVE  NEW  WORLD? A Defence Of Paradise-Engineering (look below some quotes of it. 

Brave New World (1932) is one of the most bewitching andinsidious works of literature ever written. An exaggeration? Tragically, no. Brave New World has come to serve as the false symbol for any regime of universal happiness. For sure, Huxley was writing a satirical piece of fiction, notscientific prophecy. Hence to treat his masterpiece as ill-conceived futurology rather than a work of great literature might seem to miss the point. Yet the knee-jerk response of It's Brave New World! to any blueprint for chemically-driven happiness has delayed research into paradise-engineering for all sentient life. So how does Huxley turn a future where we're all notionally happy into the archetypal dystopia? If it's technically feasible, what's wrong with using biotechnology to get rid of mental pain altogether?Brave New World is an unsettling, loveless and even sinister place. This is because Huxley endows his "ideal" society with features calculated to alienate his audience. Typically, reading BNW elicits the very same disturbing feelings in the reader which the society it depicts has notionally vanquished - not a sense of joyful anticipation....Worse, it is suggested that the price of universal happiness will be the sacrifice of the most hallowed shibboleths of our culture: "motherhood", "home", "family", "freedom", even "love". The exchange yields an insipid happiness that's unworthy of the name.Its evocation arouses our unease and distaste....

	Above, maternal behavior is tenderly expressed by both mother monkeys, Rose and Olga, who hug, groom, and nurse their babies, Roo and Ole.
	Below, radio stimulation of Rose for ten seconds in the mesencephalon evoked a rage response expressed by self-biting and abandoning her baby, Roo. For the next ten minutes Rose has lost all her maternal interest (above), ignoring the appealing calls of Roo who seeks refuge with the other mother. Rose is sucking her foot and still ignoring her baby.

 When, unlike a yogi, we do not choose our trances, and we are unaware of the types and nature of the pathological trances in our lives, then there are things we are unaware of. What we are unaware of causes more human suffering than the sometimes painful knowledge of the truth. One goal of a robust and magical life is to be as aware as possible of our options. When our unconscious pathological trances cripple our options the result is often disaster and tragedy in our personal lives, our society and in the environment. (From: Trance as a Tool)

Neurosis absorbs anguish as a sponge. It is convenient, it gets as a mighty mummy. Neurosis is a personal, intimate disorder which affect private freedom and impairs individual concentration and attention; but - as told in this Italian writing it gets as a sponge helping to absorb anguish... Neurosis itself is personal but affects a great deal of people, and then, when collective, this lessened existence could become everywhere a fertile ground fitting to foster superstitions. (Taboos are duping prohibitions, but also compelling orders with even more RAGE and CRAZE). So, often with inconsistent reason, whichever impromptu sharing a "neurotic concern" can become widespread; but also whoever "tricky arrogant" can enter in this so open pathway towards an indirect mind-control. Imposed as a new Totem, every bogus fear thus at first menaces proclaiming - hypothetic - forthcoming damages, and then offers pseudo-guarantees if the "mind-controlled" people follows so established hoaxes or even so accepted swindles.

IT IS REALLY HORRIFYING WHAT THEY HAVE DONE IN THEIR STUDIES OF THE MATERNAL INSTINCT.

Violence in the womb and at birth has always been a concern to members of APPPAH. Ironically, in modern hospital birth, violence and pain have become routine for babies. For most of the 20th century, neither obstetricians nor psychologists have regarded pain as a reality for newborns. Therefore, doctors have not hesitated to expose the baby to a harsh environment at birth, or to introduce painful routines, or painful instruments...Babies protest being jabbed with needles for blood samples and vitamin K shots, don't like to be turned upside down, rushed through space, and handled by different people. Their skin is extremely sensitive and they complain when rubbed and cleaned. We have been making them angry, afraid, defensive, sad, and confused--for the greater part of the century.

A major portion of the book addresses the issue of female genital mutilation as currently practiced in parts of Africa. Berhane Ras-Work, the current president of the Inter-African Committee on Traditional Practices Affecting the Health of Women and Children, provides a history of the organizational attempts to end the practice of FGM in Africa. Efforts started with general statements from international organizations and are now being implemented by people in the community. Outside interference is shunned and only acts to galvanize opposition. While the prevalence of FGM in Europe is unknown, Italian investigators - Amnesty International (°) presented their estimates of the number of genitally mutilated women in their country. Likewise, a representative of Germany's organization (I)NTACT spoke to how her country is responding to this practice. [(°) Sono almeno 135 milioni, secondo l'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità, le ragazze e le bambine che hanno subito mutilazioni sessuali e ogni anno se ne aggiungono altri due milioni. Le MGF sono praticate soprattutto in Africa e in alcuni paesi del Medio Oriente (Egitto, Yemen Emirati Arabi). Vi sono anche casi di mutilazioni in alcune parti dell'Asia, nelle Americhe e in Europa - compresa l'Italia - all'interno delle comunità di immigrati.]

Macabre tales of medical arrogance

A eunuch is a castrated man; the term usually refers to those castrated in order to perform a specific social function, as was common in many societies of the past. The earliest records for intentional castration to produce eunuchs are from the Sumerian cities of Lagash in the 21st century BC.^{[citation needed]} During the late part of the Roman Empire, eunuchs were created and sent with armys to be used for sex by those of the highest rank. ...
A sopranist (or sopranista) is a male classical singer with a voice-type and register equivalent to that of a female soprano
The sopranist, i.e. an adult male singer in the range of a soprano, was very popular during the Baroque and Classical era, when castrati [emasculated] sang in the opera in whole Europe. The "primo uomo" was the hero on the stage and his excellent technique was frequently much more important than the synopsis of the opera. The most famous castrato was Carlo Broschi, called "Farinelli". In the 19th century the art of the castrati fell more and more into oblivion, and the last castrato, Alessandro Moreschi, died in 1922. Their predecessors were the famous Spanish Falsettists in the cathedrals in the 16th century.

But in our Contemporary era, just few years ago: not to construct a "special singer" as "human nightingale", but - in a more horrifying way since its banal, private context - this mutilation happened "merely" to experiment a pseudo-successful authentication of behaviorism. The True Story of JOHN-> JOAN The Rolling Stone, December 11, 1997. Pages 54-97) presents this case for many years considered one of the main triumph for doctrine and methods of behaviorism.

As Nature Made Him:The Boy Who Was Raised As a Girl  by John Colapinto

..un'idea di bellezza canora durata oltre tre Secoli dalla seconda metà del Cinquecento , inizio della Controriforma, agli inizi del Novecento quando Alessandro Moreschi - the "last castrato " come lo battezzarono i pioneristici discografici inglesi venuti a registrarne la voce - era ancora attivo nella Cappella Sistina. Non fu veramente l'ultimo, abbiamo testimonianze di anziani evirati vivi fino ai Sessanta, ma dal 1903 un motu proprio Vaticano decise che non si potevano più accogliere bambini castrati per addestrarli alla professione di cantante. (Vedi Sandro Cappelletto: Una voce pochissimo fa (di soprato e baritono)  La Stampa giovedì 6 gennaio 2005 pag 25 Cultura e spettacoli. Vedi Il castrato di Simone Bartolini). Ma se nei secoli scorsi si castravano bambini per mantenerne la "voce bianca" e così ottenere dei soprani "speciali" la mutilazione sottocitata - ...un - creduto! - e ampiamente sbandierato successo del COMPORTAMENTISMO è ancora più raccapricciante nella sua quasi "banalità" di situazione "privata", ma esemplifica bene teoria, impostazione e principi del Comportamentismo stesso. E qui presento questa storia "privata": la storia di un caso singolo, ma non per questo meno significativa di una certa cultura pseudo-scientifica, di un certo modo ufficialmente programmatico di NON-RISPETTARE la Natura e gli esseri umani.	Comment from Amazon.com Once you begin reading As Nature Made Him, a mesmerizing story of amedicaltragedyandits traumatic results, you absolutely won't want to put it down. Following a botched circumcision, a family is convinced to raise their infant son, Bruce, as a girl. They rename the child Brenda and spend the next14 yearstrying to transform him into a her.Brenda's childhood reads as one filled with anxiety and loneliness, and her fear and confusion are present on nearly every page concerning her early childhood. Much of her pain is caused by Dr. Money, who is presented as a villainous medical man attempting to coerce an unwilling child to submit to numerous unpleasant treatments. Reading over interviews and reports of decisions made by this doctor, it's difficult to contain anger at the widespread results of his insistence that natural-born gender can be altered with little more than willpower and hormone treatments. The attempts of his parents, twin brother, and extended family to assist Brenda to be happily female are touching--the sense is overwhelmingly of a family wanting to do "right" while being terribly mislead as to what "right" is for her. As Brenda makes the decision to live life as a male (at age 14), she takes the name David and begins the process of reversing the effects of estrogen treatments. David's ultimate successful life--a solid marriage, honest and close family relationships, and his bravery in making his childhood public -- bring an uplifting end to his story. Equally fascinating is the latest segment of the longtime nature/nurture controversy, and the interviews of various psychological researchers and practitioners form a larger framework around David's struggle to live as the gender he was meant to be. -- Jill Lightner -- This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Maternal instinct??? Experiments on/against children?
How medicine could have succeed to induce artificial pregnancy??? But then: what will have become the babies? Also hereunder, on apparently NORMAL environment showing a gropu of children evacuated from flood places (???: was it really necessary???). This photo reveals the horrific experiment: to get PREGNANT little eight years old girls, but in the above linked site there are other photos sharing pregnant children on family's and school mates' groups: even if - for privacy rules - with covered eyes, the at present grown-up "protagonists"  are strongly willing to testimony.


no need to explain what happened to these EIGHT YEARS old little girls!!! Their bellies showning a six monthes pregnancy? At least a very mandatory NEED to get known how horrific can become scientists's shameless power! Maternal, parental instinct? Or: children "hired" as human guinea-pigs for atrocious, disfiguring and/or mutilating experiments?

 Child at one and half year old with "normal" proportionate legs; little boy at five with legs almost long as father's ones; brother and sister respectively at their ten and seven showing the progression of the "experiment"!!! To be noticed the shamelessness to photograph these "horrors" as normal family life situations. Note deform legs and bumps near both boy's knees (There is a lot of other original documents apt to be shared if requested by a competent source.)

Note:
 deform legs and bumps near both of boy's knees. A lot of original documents can be shared  if requested by a competent source.

AMNIOCENTESIS (or...EUGENICS?): Amniocentesis is a diagnostic procedure performed by inserting a hollow needle through the abdominal wall into the uterus and withdrawing a small amount of fluid from the sac surrounding the fetus. Amniocentesis can be used to diagnose a large number of genetic and chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus. In addition, it is helpful in the diagnosis of the severity of Rh incompatibility, lung maturity, and neural tube defects (such as spina bifida). There is a slight chance of infection or injury to the fetus. There is even a smaller chance of miscarriage. (Abortion - spontaneous) This test is typically performed when a problem is suspected, so the benefits outweigh the risk.

1. a description, an anthropological and even ergonomic description, concerning one, this strange one, of the various ways how to manage babies’ sleep: the why and how and exactly when and by whom this strange idea could arise and become so worldwide spread. To lie prone? However this enough already warning situation displays another more “absurd” fact,  a new more weird query arousing from: how is it possible that a quite new, not traditional at all, an even strange custom as “face-down babies”, could become an ineffaceable myth, something as a ruthless superstition?
2. But here it should be added another consideration and example, regarding how all facts can be chained beyond the times, encircling generations and - true or artificial - knowledge. An Anthropologist - i.e. a scientist not a whoever commonplace uninformed person - said that he would have been compliant to doctor’s prescription.
3.  Instead a doctor considered - at least - APPALLING such assertion, and answered that a liable doctor should NEVER  take the responsibility (and so: culpability) to instigate some one to do something doubtful for his own feelings: deming that a serious competence has to prescribe only what can propose logic choices, or rather: the choices better fitting to this precise situation and liking.

search criteria: sleeping position

At an - horrible - sample of fake scientific mentality, comportamentists stated that protective behaviors may be acquired through the mechanism of operant conditioning (learning) since such "scientists" do prefer higher-quality prformances instead to ... at least living and healthy children and opportune development. In opposition to Lasst mir Zeit =Allow me MY time - they do prefer and teach a gross motor development (Denver Development Scale), even preferring to have more babies died but many (?) till birth "advanced" in such a grosser motor development? What strange "scientists" are these who assert without any shame that protective behaviors have to be learnt through the mechanism of operant conditioning (learning) ???

Sleeping on the back retards motor-skill development
The incidence of SID has fallen considerably since recommendations to put babies to sleep on their backs were introduced . It seems however that this position may cause a slight slowing in the first phase of motor skill development . This effect , which is however slight , maybe minimised by placing the newborn prone when awake . The recommendations for back sleeping should however be absolutely respected . Doctors should be aware of the way in which the position influences motor skill development in its first phases to avoid useless examinations into delay of motor skills.
Objective. Several studies have found that back- or side-sleeping infants who are inexperienced in prone sleeping higher risk for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) when they turn to prone or are placed prone for sleep compared with infants who normally sleep prone. Moreover, such inexperienced infants [what a paradox in terms!] are more likely to be found in the face-down position at death after being placed prone compared with SIDS infants who are experienced in prone sleeping. We hypothesized that lack of experience in prone sleeping is associated with increased difficulty in changing head position to avoid an asphyxiating sleep environment.
Methods. We studied 38 healthy infants while they slept prone. Half of these were experienced and half were inexperienced in prone sleeping. To create a mildly asphyxiating microenvironment, we placed infants to sleep prone with their faces covered by soft bedding. We recorded inspired CO₂ (CO_2I), electrocardiogram, and respiration, and we videotaped head movements. Also, we assessed gross motor development (Denver Development Scale).
Results. When sleeping prone, with their faces covered by bedding, all infants experienced mild asphyxia as a result of rebreathing. All aroused and attempted escape from this environment. Infants used 3 stereotyped head-repositioning strategies. The least effective was nuzzling into the bedding with occasional brief head lifts. More effective were head lifts combined with a head turn. Some infants, however, could turn only to 1 side, right or left. Infants who were inexperienced in prone sleeping had less effective protective behaviors than experienced infants. Infant age did not correlate with efficacy of protective behaviors. Infants who were experienced in prone sleep had advanced gross motor development compared with inexperienced infants.
Conclusion. Infants who are inexperienced in prone sleeping have decreased ability to escape from asphyxiating sleep environment when placed prone. These observations potentially explain the increased risk associated with prone sleep in infants who are inexperienced. The increased occurrence of the face-down position in such infants is also potentially explained. These findings suggest that airway protective behaviors may be acquired through the mechanism of operant conditioning (learning).

By the way an alike hightening of death rate happens on another trial: the TeenScreen

TeenScreen was established in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1997. According to a 2003 Tulsa World newspaper article, Mike Brose, executive director of the Mental Health Association in Tulsa, stated:
 - To the best of my knowledge, this is the highest number of youth suicides we've ever had during the school year -- a number we find very frightening.
Psychiatrists are even coming forth saying TeenScreen is unworkable. Nathaniel Lehrman says:
- The claim by the director of the TeenScreen Program that her program would significantly reduce suicides is unsupported by the data. Indeed, such screenings would probably cause more harm than good. It is impossible, on cursory examination, or on the basis of the Program's brief written screening test, to detect suicidality or 'mental illness', however we define it.
