Video: Forgiveness Smarter Than Revenge For Your Health

From Denny: Fascinating video about how forgiveness is far more beneficial to your health than revenge. First news article I've seen that really examines this fully. Also, intriguing explanation about where forgiveness and revenge come from in the brain and are two sides to the same coin.

No one ever claimed that forgiveness is easy to adopt, learn and practice. However, the devastating effects it can have on your health it's worth your while to begin learning this new life skill.

Video: Erasing Painful Memories

From Denny: Says CBS, “Very early research that might prove promising for addition and PTSD. Too early for selective memory erasing.”

Sounds like early sci-fi and a bit unethical. Reminds me of reading science history when psychiatrists were enthralled with electrical shock therapy and lobotomies for depression. This sounds unethical and a bit spooky to me no matter how much they market it to the contrary. There are just too many ways this could be used to harm others - and easily: military torture, medical malpractice, divorce, easy way to get a hold of multi-million dollar estates and wealthy businesses. Con artists could have a field day with this research.

This video news segment makes it appear benign when clearly this could be used for great abuse of power. The real question is: Just who is behind this research AND why is it so important to them? And, I suppose, the second question that must be asked is: Why do we no longer have a curious or demanding media guarding the public?
