The Cobra Effect teaches us that good intentions can create perverse incentives. And then these incentives can undermine the good intentions that got the ball rolling, so to speak. We see the effects of this today with government farm subsidies. These came about during The Great Depression in the 1930s. Farmers were plagued with damaging surpluses because no one had money to buy the crops. This caused agricultural prices to crash to the extent that it could have endangered the nation’s food supply if it bankrupted every farmer. So as an interim solution, the government created a program to pay farmers NOT to grow crops. The only problem is, what was meant to be a temporary stopgap turned into a chronic entitlement, with no end in sight, even though it’s been nearly a century since they started. What is Creator’s perspective?

A great deal of witchcraft and belief in witchcraft revolved around agriculture. One particularly interesting belief was the notion that witches could steal a cow’s milk with the use of a towel. The story goes that the witch would hang a towel on a rack, kneed and squeeze a corner of the towel as if it was a teat, and draw milk out of the towel and into a waiting bucket as if it was the cow itself. This was suspected when farmers would suddenly and unexpectedly have “dry cows.” Is there ANY truth to these stories? What is the real backstory?

One of the more startling Illinois stories surrounding bewitching is that of the Williams sisters. Sixteen and eighteen years old, the two girls were reportedly normal by day, but in the evening would run off into the corn and then “returned to their home, and with almost supernatural ability, climbed to the roof and began dancing near its precarious edge. Their father, James Williams, in front of around fifty spectators, pleaded with his daughters to come down. They replied with animal-like shrieks and groans.” Even the New York Times picked up this 1871 story. The sisters claimed to have been bewitched by an old woman who lived nearby in retribution for refusing to become witches themselves. What can Creator tell us?

“Milk sickness” is a problem only dairy farmers remain aware of. But in the 1800s it was a huge problem. Abraham Lincoln’s own mother died of it at a young age. Turns out, the problem comes from cows ingesting a particular weed, the “snakeroot plant.” The plant is toxic to humans, but apparently not to numerous herbivore animals. The toxin gets into the milk and can inflict humans with serious illness and even death. Before the cause of this danger was finally discovered, milk sickness was often attributed to witchcraft. Could this plant be from the same beings who introduced witchcraft itself? Is the plant itself an extraterrestrial import? If so, who brought it, and roughly when? Are new problematic species of animals and plants still being imported today, or very recently if not currently? And if they have stopped, why?

Witches are often associated with poisonings. People were implored never to accept gifts from those suspected of being witches. In fact, in German, the word “gift” means poison. Kleen wrote, “Through spreading physical illness through purported acts of generosity, witches upset the balance between neighbors at a time when sharing and exchanging goods was not only common practice, it was a necessary element of community life.” What can Creator tell us?

A viewer asks: “We know the divine must work through humans and human institutions, inspiring key players to consider alternatives that are opposed by Extraterrestrial Alliance mind control. In 2008, the housing bubble popped and contributed hugely to the crisis. In 2020 we have the student loan bubble and the growing food crisis. We did not have a food crisis in 2008. Perhaps if Central Banks again bailed out the banks and investors holding all the student loan debt, as they did in 2008, the game could keep going. But without actual grain in storage bins, NOBODY is going to want to buy agricultural futures; will we once again see a cascading of failed margin calls, leading to the very collapse of the global financial system that was avoided in 2008? Can Creator comment on whether this is an accurate outlook?”

Can you construct for us an effective prayer for blessing food before mealtime and discuss the benefits so this can be a part of the intention of those using the prayer?
