Restrictions in the US have included bans on serving customers in restaurants and other places of business, bans of peaceful gatherings of too many people in one location (in violation of “social distancing” requirements), and bans on religious worship by groups deemed to have too many people in one place of worship.
The First Amendment to the US Constitution lists the right to peaceably assemble and the right to free exercise of religion. The First Amendment is part of what is called the Bill of Rights. Note that these amendments are not known as the Bill of Privileges or the Bill of Nice Things to be Purchased by Taxes.
The US Constitution could not have been ratified without the Bill of Rights, so these rights are fundamental to what it means to be an American.
There is no question that the COVID-19 lockdowns denied Americans these fundamental rights. The only question is whether the denial of these rights was necessary.
Some proponents of lockdown start and end their argument by stating the number of deaths attributed to COVID-19. The magnitude of the number is supposed to end any further discussion.
Anyone who questions whether the lockdowns have actually saved any lives are dismissed as having a callous disregard for human life. Back when the death toll from COVID-19 was around thirty thousand, I compared COVID-19 deaths to the annual deaths from influenza.
Some of my colleagues repeatedly notify me when the death toll from COVID-19 is updated. Their point is that if deaths from COVID-19 exceed some arbitrary number the lockdowns will have been vindicated.
It doesn’t seem to matter whether the deaths occurred during lockdowns or not; deaths from COVID-19 justify any action by government.
Comparisons with flu epidemics provide a frame of reference. The point is that in the past American civilization somehow survived comparable crises with similar death tolls without requiring lockdowns.
Freedom of worship and freedom of peaceable assembly are constitutionally protected rights.
The only plausible justification for suspending those rights would be an imminent and credible threat to the existence of America that required immediate and united effort to avoid.
A final death toll from COVID-19 of two hundred thousand or even 1 million would not change the argument despite being a substantially greater tragedy.
Some of my colleagues argue that life is priceless and is more important than any economic consideration. This is contrary to the foundation of America.
During the debate over secession from Britain at the Second Virginia Convention held in 1775, Patrick Henry asked the audience, which included Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, “Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?”
Patrick Henry concluded his address with a passionate answer: “but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!”
This quote is synonymous with a core American value: that the freedom to live one’s life as one chooses is even more important than life itself.

Individuals should choose whether the risks of socializing (including risks of contracting COVID-19) are worth the benefits of social exchange.
It is not a matter of putting a dollar value on life; it is a recognition that people regularly risk their lives voluntarily in pursuit of happiness.
We could completely eliminate deaths from motor vehicle accidents by banning motor vehicles. We continue to voluntarily use them, because the economic benefits of doing so are more valuable to us than the risks to our lives.
Another argument made by lockdown proponents is to “follow the science.” This is another phrase intended to end further discussion. Scientific hypotheses must be falsifiable by observation.
The scientific method is the process of testing falsifiable hypotheses by empiric observations that either support or reject them. The “science” is never settled and is never closed to challenge or discussion.
What proponents of lockdowns mean by “follow the science” is that statements made by scientists should be accepted as axioms and that anyone who challenges these statements is an ignoramus or a conspiracy nut.
An obvious problem exists when different scientists make conflicting statements. This problem is worse when the same scientist makes conflicting statements at different times.
As the debates over continuation or resumption of lockdowns continue, what is the current state of knowledge?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently released their best estimate of symptomatic case fatality rates based on records of symptomatic cases, records of deaths, and antibody tests of wider populations.
The symptomatic case fatality rate is the risk of death after developing symptomatic disease. This is different from the mortality rate, which is the number of deaths per hundred thousand.
The symptomatic case fatality rates are 0.5 deaths per thousand symptomatic cases for those under 50 years of age, 2 per thousand for those age 50–64, and 13 per thousand for those over 65.
As a frame of reference, the case fatality rate for the Spanish flu of 1918 was greater than 25 deaths per thousand cases. The existing scientific data for COVID-19 do not justify the suspension of civil liberties.
The debate will always return to the total deaths, which now exceed one hundred thousand for the United States. There is nothing extraordinary about the death toll from COVID-19.
Total deaths in the US from all causes were 2,839,205 in 2018. The current mortality rate from COVID-19 in the US is 31.7. The total mortality rate in the US from all causes was 723.6 in 2018.
The mortality rate in the US in 2018 was 163.6 for heart disease, 149.1 from cancer, 48.0 from unintentional injury (including motor vehicle accidents), 39.7 from chronic noninfectious lung disease (mostly chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [COPD]), 37.1 from stroke, and 30.5 from Alzheimer’s disease.
The mortality rate from suicide was 14.2 in 2018. These comparisons do not ignore the tragedy of deaths from COVID-19; the figures provide a frame of reference.

Mandatory lockdowns should be ended. We have enough data for individuals to make decisions about whether they should stay in the safety of their homes or risk their lives by socializing.

Last week, the company said it was scrapping the famous name and image, which appears primarily on their pancake syrup product, because “Aunt Jemima’s origins are based on a racial stereotype.”
Lillian Richard became a goodwill ambassador for the brand in 1925 and worked for Quaker Oats for 23 years before dying in 1956.

“A lot of people want it removed. We want the world to know that our cousin Lillian was one of the Aunt Jemima’s and she made an honest living. We would ask that you reconsider just wiping all that away,” she told KLTV.

stillnessinthestorm--2020-06-26--“The Search for Techno-Artifacts” From an Earlier Civilization in the Solar System

( ExoNews ) In his 2016 study , ‘ Prior Indigenous Technological Species ’ , Penn State ’ s Jason Wright discussed possible origins and locations for “ technosignatures ” of a technological species ’ civilization that could have existed in the solar system prior to humanity ’ s rise on Earth , or on nearby planets Venus and Mars .
“ From a purely scientific standpoint , it ’ s a perfectly reasonable question to ask whether life may have existed elsewhere in the Solar System , or does today , ” said Wright , who is also a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Habitable Worlds ’ at Penn State .
What could have ended a prior technologically advanced civilization within our solar system ?
“ The most obvious answer is a cataclysm , whether a natural event , such as an extinction-level asteroid impact or self-inflicted , such as a global climate catastrophe , ” says Wright .
“ [ S ] uch an event would only permanently extinguish the species if there were many cataclysms across the solar system closely spaced in time , ( such as ) a swarm of comets or interplanetary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ burst or supernova… ” • In the case of Venus , its global greenhouse and resurfacing might have erased all evidence of a prior civilization ’ s existence on the Venusian surface .
In the case of Earth , erosion and plate tectonics may have erased most of such evidence if the species lived a billion years ago .
Remaining indigenous technosignatures would be extremely old , limiting the places they might still be found to beneath the surfaces of Mars and the Moon , or in the outer solar system .
• @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lingam ( at Florida Tech ) and Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb entitled , “ The Moon as a Fishing Net for Extraterrestrial Life ” , Loeb suggested that Earth ’ s Moon might yield traces of technological equipment that crashed on the lunar surface a billion years ago .
“ The absence of a lunar atmosphere , ” wrote Loeb , “ guarantees that these messengers would reach the lunar surface without burning up .
In addition , the geological inactivity of the Moon implies that the record deposited on its surface will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deep lunar interior .
Serving as a natural mailbox , the lunar surface collected all impacting objects during the past few billions of years .
Most of this “ mail ” comes from within the solar system.

(ExoNews) In his 2016 study, ‘Prior Indigenous Technological Species’, Penn State’s Jason Wright discussed possible origins and locations for “technosignatures” of a technological species’ civilization that could have existed in the solar system prior to humanity’s rise on Earth, or on nearby planets Venus and Mars. “From a purely scientific standpoint, it’s a perfectly reasonable question to ask whether life may have existed elsewhere in the Solar System, or does today,” said Wright, who is also a member of the ‘Center for Exoplanets and Habitable Worlds’ at Penn State.

What could have ended a prior technologically advanced civilization within our solar system? “The most obvious answer is a cataclysm, whether a natural event, such as an extinction-level asteroid impact or self-inflicted, such as a global climate catastrophe,” says Wright. “[S]uch an event would only permanently extinguish the species if there were many cataclysms across the solar system closely spaced in time, (such as) a swarm of comets or interplanetary warfare, …an unexpected nearby gamma ray burst or supernova…”
• In the case of Venus, its global greenhouse and resurfacing might have erased all evidence of a prior civilization’s existence on the Venusian surface. In the case of Earth, erosion and plate tectonics may have erased most of such evidence if the species lived a billion years ago. Remaining indigenous technosignatures would be extremely old, limiting the places they might still be found to beneath the surfaces of Mars and the Moon, or in the outer solar system.
• In a 2019 study co-written by Manasvi Lingam (at Florida Tech) and Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb entitled, “The Moon as a Fishing Net for Extraterrestrial Life”, Loeb suggested that Earth’s Moon might yield traces of technological equipment that crashed on the lunar surface a billion years ago. “The absence of a lunar atmosphere,” wrote Loeb, “guarantees that these messengers would reach the lunar surface without burning up. In addition, the geological inactivity of the Moon implies that the record deposited on its surface will be preserved and not mixed with the deep lunar interior. Serving as a natural mailbox, the lunar surface collected all impacting objects during the past few billions of years. Most of this “mail” comes from within the solar system.”

One of the primary open questions of astrobiology is whether there is extant or extinct life elsewhere the Solar System. Astrophysicists Avi Loeb at Harvard and Penn State’s Jason Wright have both explored the question, with Loeb suggesting that ancient technological artifacts from beyond the Solar System may exist on Earth’s Moon amounting to a letter from an alien civilization saying, “We exist.”
Wright, a member of the Center for Exoplanets and Habitable Worlds, has considered the possibility that a technological
species could have existed in the Solar System prior to humanity’s rise on Earth in his study, Prior Indigenous Technological Species.
In 2016, Wright authored a paper that discussed possible origins and locations for “technosignatures” of such a civilization while other astronomers have suggested looking for lights on Kuiper Belt Objects that “may serve as a lamppost which signals the existence of extraterrestrial technologies and thus civilizations.”
The origins and possible locations for technosignatures of such a prior indigenous technological species might have arisen on ancient Earth or another body, such as a pre-greenhouse Venus or a wet Mars. In the case of Venus, the arrival of its global greenhouse and potential resurfacing might have erased all evidence of its existence on the Venusian surface. In the case of Earth, erosion and, ultimately, plate tectonics may have erased most such evidence if the species lived a billion years ago. Remaining indigenous technosignatures, observes Wright, might be expected to be extremely old, limiting the places they might still be found to beneath the surfaces of Mars and the Moon, or in the outer Solar System.

First , prior to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ fact-checkers ” label my previous Hooker 2014 study “ fraudulent , ” a most serious and reputation-harming charge .
“ Fraudulent ” is a legal term of art which means “ the intentional use of deceit , a trick or some dishonest means to deprive another of their money , property or a legal right.
” The fact of the matter is that Translational Neurodegeneration , where my 2014 study was published , did retract the article under enormous pressure from the Vaccine Industry .
But , in so doing , that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ deception , ” or “ dishonesty ” as a basis for the retraction .
Rather , that Journal retracted the article because of a purportedly undisclosed conflict of interest , but without any finding that the non-disclosure was intentional or material .

Convenience samples are used routinely in epidemiology and also form the basis for the FDA approval of drugs and biologics .
FALSE .
The U.S. Center for Disease Control ’ s ( CDC ) own studies , many that are cited in the “ fact-checking ” piece , are almost exclusively based on convenience samples .
The study presented by Destefano et al .
2004 in the journal Pediatrics on the timing of the MMR vaccine and autism was completed using a convenience sample of approximately 2400 children in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This was not a representative sample of the U.S. population as the percentage of African American children in the study was 35.4 % compared to that of the U.S. at the time at 16 % .
Yet this study is the CDC ’ s basis for denying a causal link between the MMR vaccine and autism in the U.S .
The “ fact-checkers ” cite Andrews et al .
2004 ( Pediatrics ) which is also based on a convenience sample of children in the United Kingdom despite the fact that the CDC @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thimerosal-containing vaccines in the United States do not cause autism .
Also , the “ fact-checkers ” cite four studies ( regarding both thimerosal-containing vaccines and the MMR vaccine ) on children in Denmark as proof that vaccines don ’ t cause autism in U.S. children despite many distinctions between the two populations of children .
Finally , the “ fact-checkers ” cite five studies that are based on the CDC ’ s Vaccine Safety Datalink , a computerized database of the records from nine Health Maintenance Organizations in the U.S .
This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” as it excludes children who are on Preferred Provider Organization ( PPO ) plans as well as those on Medicaid and focuses only on the HMO demographic .
Evidently , the “ fact-checkers ’ ” big beef with the use of a convenience sample is the fact that 30.9 % of the cohort was unvaccinated by their first birthday .

The “ fact-checkers ” also deceptively state that over 20 studies show that vaccines are not associated with autism .

Again , the studies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ MMR vaccine considered separately and did not consider unvaccinated children .
The only study focused on the vaccination schedule ( Destefano et al .

nstead of following the link to the peer-reviewed study, Facebook now directed the reader to a critique completed by Healthfeedback.org, an organization that is a part of the World Health Organization’s Vaccine Safety Net with ties to the Gates Foundation.
To view the original paper, one would have to bypass the “fact-check” to be directed to the SAGE Open Medicine website.
Playing fast and loose with the facts
Unfortunately for the public, the so-called “fact-checkers” at Healthfeedback.org play fast and loose with the facts.
First, prior to considering the study at hand, the “fact-checkers” label my previous Hooker 2014 study “fraudulent,” a most serious and reputation-harming charge.
“Fraudulent” is a legal term of art which means “the intentional use of deceit, a trick or some dishonest means to deprive another of their money, property or a legal right.”
The fact of the matter is that Translational Neurodegeneration, where my 2014 study was published, did retract the article under enormous pressure from the Vaccine Industry.
But, in so doing, that Journal never cited “fraud,” “deception,” or “dishonesty” as a basis for the retraction. Rather, that Journal retracted the article because of a purportedly undisclosed conflict of interest, but without any finding that the non-disclosure was intentional or material.
Indeed, that study has since been republished in an expanded form (Hooker 2018).
Using a convenience sample
The primary criticism of the Hooker and Miller 2020 study was the use of a convenience sample which refers to the cohort of 2047 children, from 3 separate pediatric practices in the United States, that formed the basis for our study.
Convenience samples are used routinely in epidemiology and also form the basis for the FDA approval of drugs and biologics.
Within the piece, Dr. David Gorski, a pro-pharma blogger states,
“Basically, no matter how you analyze a convenience sample, you can’t generalize it to the larger population.”
FALSE. The U.S. Center for Disease Control’s (CDC) own studies, many that are cited in the “fact-checking” piece, are almost exclusively based on convenience samples.
The study presented by Destefano et al. 2004 in the journal Pediatrics on the timing of the MMR vaccine and autism was completed using a convenience sample of approximately 2400 children in public school districts in Metropolitan Atlanta.
This was not a representative sample of the U.S. population as the percentage of African American children in the study was 35.4% compared to that of the U.S. at the time at 16%.
Yet this study is the CDC’s basis for denying a causal link between the MMR vaccine and autism in the U.S.

The necessary meaningful statistics
Evidently, the “fact-checkers’” big beef with the use of a convenience sample is the fact that 30.9% of the cohort was unvaccinated by their first birthday.
This number makes sense in a study of vaccinated versus unvaccinated children as a significant number of unvaccinated children would be necessary to derive any meaningful statistics whatsoever.
“Fact-checkers” accuse the co-investigators of not controlling for differences between vaccinated and unvaccinated children but seem to ignore the fact that we selected and evaluated differences in the control diagnosis of head injury, a diagnosis that has nothing to do with vaccination.
When the “fact-checkers” do acknowledge the control diagnosis, they point out a single, marginally significant relationship between vaccination status and head injury reported in Hooker and Miller, 2020 but neglect to point out that for all of the rest of the analyses (11 total), no relationship between vaccination and head injury was observed.
Hooker and Miller discuss differences in healthcare seeking behavior between vaccinated and unvaccinated children as a potential limitation of the paper and cite Glanz et al. 2013 which showed that under-vaccinated children were less likely to see medical practitioners for outpatient visits, with an incidence risk ratio of 0.89.

stillnessinthestorm--2020-06-25--Ecuadorian Giant Skeletons Discovered, Possible Connections to Sumerian Gods

( Joseph P. Farrell ) The old saying that there were “ giants in the earth ” certainly appears to be true according to this story spotted by S.D .
It caught my eye , for a very specific reason , but we ’ ll get back to that .
The story itself concerns the discovery of giant skeletons in Ecuador of people whose height was between 7 and 8 feet tall .
The skeletons were exposed during heavy rains : Related Benjamin Fulford — June 22nd 2020 : War Drums Beat Around the World as U.S .
Paralyzed by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are these paragraphs : Dement told Cuenca Highlife : “ We are very early in our research and I am only able to provide a general overview of what we have found .
I don ’ t want to make claims based on speculation since our work is ongoing .
Because of the size of the skeletons , this has both anthropological and medical implications .
A half dozen human skeletons from the early 1400s to mid-1500s were confirmed to have been discovered , varying from 7 feet and 8 feet ( 213 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ According to a research team led by British anthropologist Russell Dement , strikingly tall skeletons uncovered in the Amazon region of Ecuador and Peru are undergoing examination in Germany .
Will these remains prove that a race of tall people existed deep in the Amazon rainforest hundreds of years ago ?
In all the skeletons , the joints seemed healthy and the lung cavity appeared large .
One of the skeletons that we have dated was of a female who was about 60 when she died , much older than typical cases of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ The skeletons show no signs of diseases such as the hormonal growth problems that are common in most cases of gigantism .
The bones were thought to date to 600 years ago .
The rest of the skeleton was located and , once assembled , reportedly measured 7 feet and 4 inches ( 223.5 centimeters ) in height .
In late 2013 , Dement received word that a skeleton had been uncovered by a Shuar local , approximately 70 miles ( 112 kilometers ) from Cuenca , in Loja Province , Ecuador @ @ @ @ @ @ @ recovered the rib cage and skull of a female which had been exposed by flooding .

(Joseph P. Farrell) The old saying that there were “giants in the earth” certainly appears to be true according to this story spotted by S.D. It caught my eye, for a very specific reason, but we’ll get back to that. The story itself concerns the discovery of giant skeletons in Ecuador of people whose height was between 7 and 8 feet tall. The skeletons were exposed during heavy rains:

Now, what interests me here are these paragraphs:
According to a research team led by British anthropologist Russell Dement, strikingly tall skeletons uncovered in the Amazon region of Ecuador and Peru are undergoing examination in Germany. Will these remains prove that a race of tall people existed deep in the Amazon rainforest hundreds of years ago? A half dozen human skeletons from the early 1400s to mid-1500s were confirmed to have been discovered, varying from 7 feet and 8 feet (213 to 243 centimeters) in height. Dement told Cuenca Highlife: “We are very early in our research and I am only able to provide a general overview of what we have found. I don’t want to make claims based on speculation since our work is ongoing. Because of the size of the skeletons, this has both anthropological and medical implications.
In late 2013, Dement received word that a skeleton had been uncovered by a Shuar local, approximately 70 miles (112 kilometers) from Cuenca, in Loja Province, Ecuador. Dement traveled to the site and recovered the rib cage and skull of a female which had been exposed by flooding. The bones were thought to date to 600 years ago. The rest of the skeleton was located and, once assembled, reportedly measured 7 feet and 4 inches (223.5 centimeters) in height. … Dement told Cuenca Highlife: “The skeletons show no signs of diseases such as the hormonal growth problems that are common in most cases of gigantism. In all the skeletons, the joints seemed healthy and the lung cavity appeared large. One of the skeletons that we have dated was of a female who was about 60 when she died, much older than typical cases of gigantism.”

The article goes on from there into much more sensational claims, but before we address those, I want to consider an implication of the information cited above. Obviously, I am skeptical of articles of this sort. It’s very easy in today’s internet age to say just about anything, slap a couple of pictures together, and voila, one has a story about giants. But a few hundred years ago, before there were things like photoshop or even obsolete technologies like cameras and film, there are unusual statements from early European explorers, Christopher Columbus among them, that they encountered native American Indians among whom there were people that were “giants,” and in some descriptions, these people were from 7 to 9 feet tall. The descriptions are odd in another respect, too, in that they do not indicate one way or another any health problems associated with them. Perhaps the lack of mention is simply due to not having been around them enough to observe any such problems, but then again, we don’t know. In either case, the Ecuadorian “discovery,” if true, might confirm that odd detail in early explorers’ comments about having encountered “giants,” i.e., extremely tall people, for according to the article, the bones “were thought to date to 600 years ago,” the right time for the age of exploration. The article concludes with something sensational: Carlos Miguel Vaca Alvarado, of the parish of the town of Changaiminas, Ecuador, was all his life interested in archaeology, and this motivated him to discover a group of numerous giant human skeletons. The bones were about 7 meters high and have been discovered in the mountains of the Amazon area. The seven fragments of the skeleton were carefully analyzed by many experts who reached the conclusion that those bones were part of a human skeleton seven times bigger than a modern human being. Legends say that this region was known as the “cemetery of the gods”, sine in ancient times this region was inhabited by giants. Many experts affirm that this place is the lost city of the giants since many pyramids were discovered there, and their size reached 80 meters high and 80 meters wide. It’s not uncommon for giants to be associated with “the gods,” for such stories span the planet and can be found on every continent (except Antarctica, and given the strangeness there, I’m not taking any bets). What one notices at this point of the article is the absence of details about the “many experts” who allegedly examined the 7-meter high human skeletal remains, whereas such details were forthcoming in the previous portion. So, color me skeptical, for I’m about 50-50 on this one; the claims made for the first find are detailed and intriguing enough for me to think there may be a great deal to them, not the least of which is the time frame and coordination with textual accounts and stories of such people encountered by European explorers. But oddly enough, there’s a bit of highly weird corroboration of sorts even of the 7-meter-high story, and it comes from almost half a world away, in the form of Babylonian cylinder seals: Academics often assume that such depictions are merely artistic metaphor, where the large humans are simply “figures of power” such as kings, and so on. But skeletons of giants changes the picture completely (not to coin a pun), and even kings, in some of those ancient texts, were said to be extraordinarily tall.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?
Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong.
