Removing Tonsils And Appendix Puts Heart At Risk
Marcy Bonebright | Jun 03, 2011 | Comments 56
Young patients should think twice about letting surgeons remove “unimportant” body parts.
A Swedish study revealed the surgical removal of the appendix and tonsils before age 20 was associated with an increased risk of premature heart attack.
“Given the strong biological and epidemiological evidence linking inflammation with coronary heart disease (CHD),” said Dr. Imre Janszky from the Department of Public Health Science of the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, “one might anticipate that surgical removal of the tonsils and appendix, with their consequent effects on immunity, might also have a long-term effect on CHD.”
The authors explain the results, suggesting such surgeries have a “complex,” long-term effect on the immune system, noting the appendix and tonsils are secondary lymphoid organs whose removal can affect several aspects of immune activity.
“In the light of our current knowledge on the complex relationship between atherosclerosis and the immune system, the findings are biologically plausible,” Janszky said. “There is already some evidence that removal of the spleen, another secondary lymphoid organ, is also associated with accelerated atherosclerosis and increased cardiovascular risk.”

I used to work as an OR Tech passing supplies for surgical procedures to the trained monkeys whacking basic elements out of people’s innards. At the time I wasn’t religious at all (AT ALL). But it always used to bother me when The Educated Apes would for, seemingly no reason, remove some “vestigial” organ that “evolution’s caprice” had left there for science to be able to claim that it is there as proof for the “transitional phase organisms” argument. Thus we are on our merry way to some “higher” plane of evolutionary excellence.
One of the most startling things I ever heard a “doctor” say when asked by an accomplice was, “I’m a Christian. I’m sure man did not evolve…he was created and everything in this patient is there for a purpose. I may not know what that purpose is, yet, but I’m not going to remove something unless it is proven something is wrong with it. If you want proof we can discuss my evidence.”
I already had some evidence…just didn’t – at that time – have a context to put it into. Now I do, especially since reading “Signature in the Cell” by Stephen C. Meyer, PhDhDhD. (Harper One – c. 2009).
More and more as time passes it looms larger and larger in my mind how dangerous (and STUPID) we are to base our national, educational, scientific and legal policies on proposals and philosophies which are error-ridden, illogical and unproveable guesses. Guesses that kill people, destroy the fabric of our culture, give people reason to think everything is based on random/purposeless chaos and act such that they have neither accountability nor responsibility to anyone or anything.
So, I guess it is fittng that if people want to think and live like the Devil they should be given an opportunity to be ruled by him. I’m glad Jesus Christ fully defeated Satan. Otherwise, Satan’s rulership would be ongoing…once it starts.
