Sheople? Sheeple? However you spell it…are you “it”?
“Sheople”, loosely defined, are people who act like sheep. These are people who do not question anything; they do what they are told and they believe what the authority figures say. Since they act and think like everyone else they tend to look and act like everyone else…and that’s the way “they” like it.
In healthcare, doctors and health professionals love Sheople! These people make great patients because they take their drugs, they don’t question their diagnosis, they get operated on and when things go bad (like they get cancer, have a stoke or wind up in a wheelchair) they accept it without question because, well, everyone gets those horrible diseases…after all, the doctors say its “in the genes”.
The truth is there are people in the world that are incredibly healthy and successful because they do things and believe things differently! They are not Sheople! If you want different results (than your family, friends and neighbors) you need to do things differently! Otherwise you end up just like them!
So when your medical doctor tells you you need to take drugs for the rest of your life, you question them and do some research yourself. Seek out the alternatives and figure out what path you want to take! When your medical doctor tells you it’s the only way, question it and ask around if there are other ways (and there always are!). If your doctor tells you are being a difficult patient, tell him thank you for the complement! If your doctor tells you that chiropractic care won’t help, you ask them what expertise they have to make such a judgement!
Don’t be a Sheople! Think for yourself and keep an open mind! Remember that God has no limitations and that God created you perfectly!
