Guest guest Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Here is a snippet of the conversation Bill Maher had with Larry King this past week on CNN. If you want the full show (it's an hour!), then the web link is: http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0512/15/lkl.01.html Sheri B. KING: Worried about Avian flu? MAHER: Not the least. You know my theory about health. KING: What? MAHER: Well, we've talked about it. I'm not into western medicine. That to me is a complete scare tactic. It just shows you, you can... KING: You mean you don't get a -- you don't get a flu shot? MAHER: A flu shot is the worst thing you can do. KING: Why? MAHER: Because it's got -- it's got mercury. KING: It prevents flu. MAHER: It doesn't prevent. First of all, that's... KING: I haven't had the flu in 25 years since I've been taking a flu shot. MAHER: Well, I hate to tell you, Larry, but if you have a flu shot for more than five years in a row, there's ten times the likelihood that you'll get Alzheimer's disease. I would stop getting your... KING: What did you say? MAHER: That went better in rehearsal but it was still good. Absolutely, no the defense against disease is to have a strong immune system. A flu shot just compromises your immune system. KING: So you don't take any western medicine, don't take an aspirin? MAHER: Never, an aspirin no. Thousands of people die from aspirin every year. KING: How do you treat illness? MAHER: I promise you that if you get a headache the reason for that headache is not aspirin deficiency. The reason... KING: No, of course not. MAHER: Right, so you're taking -- so it's not... KING: Something to take the pain away. Why is that bad? MAHER: But why don't you find out the real root of that pain? KING: Well, while you're finding take the aspirin. MAHER: But that's what we do. We have immediate cures that address the symptom and not the root cause of anything. I have no worries about bird flu whatsoever. First of all, it's not going to happen. Second of all, the fact that it is mutating shows that if you did come up with a vaccine tomorrow, it wouldn't be effective against the disease when the disease comes because the disease is always morphing and mutating. It's just a way to funnel money into the pharmaceutical companies. Follow the money. You'll find out where the bird flu is. KING: You wouldn't say the Salk vaccine was a bad idea. MAHER: That's somewhat of a different case, yes. KING: Polio was eliminated. MAHER: Yes but, you know, there are many books out that will -- that will -- and I'm not well enough versed on it to talk about it that will indicate that there are other reasons why it was. And a lot of diseases that have been they say, whoa, this was eliminated because of a vaccine, they find out well no actually the country got toilets and that's what happened. KING: You're a Christian Scientist? MAHER: No, I'm not a Christian Scientist. KING: They don't go to doctors (INAUDIBLE). MAHER: So that makes me a Christian Scientist? KING: You agree with that philosophy part of their concept. MAHER: You know I also agree with a lot of things that the Unabomber said but I'm not sending bombs on the mail either. KING: All right. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
