The following entities have been
enrolled in the COPE Conversion Program after reportedly
meeting the
criteria for enrollment
by their respective Sponsors. Entities are
sponsored for placement with reports from
victims/survivors/whistleblowers, not money. Money
doesn't impact placement, but, may impact service
availability. On that note, please DIVEST AND
BOYCOTT* (aka Neither Give Nor Invest Anyone or Anything
of Value (including your time) to or in) false prophets,
including those featured below. COPE and the HEAL
Mission do not recognize divesting and boycotting as
acts of violence, but, rather an exercise of the right
to make informed choices. You are welcome to
disagree. [The watch-list may be updated in the future due to
deaths,
graduations,
new enrollments, and/or merciful releases.
(Merciful releases (Why
Mercy?) are based on 3 primary factors: date
of last complaint received by mission about
the entity; last date of participation by a
qualifying Sponsor;
and whether an enrolled/placed entity has been free of
complaints during the standard or required by state law
requirement for retention of medical records.) Those who don't
learn from history are doomed to repeat it.] *Some say
divesting and boycotting
are acts of
economic violence
and some say fraud is a form of
economic terrorism.
So, whether arguably responding to economic terrorism
with a call for arguable economic violence is not
considered peaceable or within the scope of civilian
(and/or religious) authority in your eyes, it is
protected by the First Amendment of the US Constitution.
And, we sincerely believe in the free market which
includes the right to know and share information with
each other so we make informed choices which is our
right to do and may include advising to divest from and
boycott public offenders.
"Trafficking can occur in many
licit and illicit industries or markets, including in
brothels, massage parlors, street prostitution, hotel
services, hospitality, agriculture, manufacturing,
janitorial services, construction, health and elder
care, and domestic service." (From "...Addressing Human
Trafficking of Children and Youth in the United States"
report at:
https://www.acf.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/cb/acyf_human_trafficking_guidance.pdf)
If you oppose human trafficking and don't want your
children or loved ones trafficked for sex or labor,
don't entrust their care to out-of-home placements and
be careful not to let traffickers provide in-home care
or services. Also see:

THE VITAMIN/SUPPLEMENT
INDUSTRY: YOU NEED TO CHECK THEIR PATENTS. HERE'S WHAT
THAT WHOLE INDUSTRY IS ABOUT AND BASED ON: "And yet in another
respect, many other fruits, vegetables, herbs, and seeds in addition
to cranberries have been scientifically shown or are widely believed
through apocryphal evidence, to have other beneficial health
effects. In their natural forms, most of these fruits, vegetables,
herbs, and seeds cannot be directly ingested (due to palatability as
well as other concerns). Many of the extracts produced from them
have only captured a portion of the bioactive compounds. There is
thus a distinct need for a new processing method which can capture
the full synergistic and beneficial activity of these plants in a
palatable concoction which retains the beneficial activity of the
natural forms, and also provides for easy transport, easy
formulation into unit dosages, and long-term shelf life without the
need for refrigeration...." Source: US Patent # 6,440,467
found at
https://www.uspto.gov/patents-application-process/search-patents
Now, if the above doesn't persuade you that vitamins/supplements are
a total scam, maybe you don't know what "apocryphal" means.
Apocryphal means highly doubtful but widely believed to be true.
Do a google definition search and that's what you will get when
searching for "apocryphal". So, if you find eating food not
palatable and want a juiced or dehydrated tiny piece of real food in
a pill that may or may not contain anything it claims because you
ignore disclaimers when you shouldn't, then, perhaps you actually
want to put unknown substances in your body rather than eat food
which suggests you suffer from Pica. Now, if you go to the
patent search above and search for "apocryphal" you'll find more
than that patent on supplemental food processing using that word to
describe their "evidence". The New York Times reported "The
New York State attorney general’s office accused four major
retailers on Monday of selling fraudulent and potentially dangerous
herbal supplements and demanded that they remove the products from
their shelves. The authorities said they had conducted tests on
top-selling store brands of herbal supplements at four national
retailers — GNC, Target, Walgreens and Walmart — and found that four
out of five of the products did not contain any of the herbs on
their labels. The tests showed that pills labeled medicinal herbs
often contained little more than cheap fillers like powdered rice,
asparagus and houseplants, and in some cases substances that could
be dangerous to those with allergies." Source:
https://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/02/03/new-york-attorney-general-targets-supplements-at-major-retailers/
So, if you know someone who takes them, break it to them
gently and if you are currently taking them, you likely want to stop
wasting your money and/or request a refund while submitting a
complaint to the proper authorities.
We have solely done outreach to
vitaminshoppe.com in offering dietary supplement retailers and
manufacturers a means to meet our minimum Honesty In Marketing
Standards to be featured at
https://www.cope.church/standards.htm
should they meet the following criteria/requirements for
"graduation" or upgrade in status: "In order to remove the dietary
supplement market or that section from our site, we'd need all
dietary supplements to include the following in their labeling:
"Dietary supplements may not contain product described on label.
Those with allergies or concerns about unidentified substances
should avoid taking dietary supplements. Dietary supplements are at
times synthetic so petroleum by-product and/or when organic simply
small portions of juiced or dehydrated food some find unpalatable
who may be suffering from Pica and need healthcare." Something along
those lines and disclosing the actual patent number on any patents
relied on for the products by the entire industry and/or your
meeting said standard with your product line would result in placing
you (if not the entire industry) on the Honesty In Marketing
Standards page at
https://www.cope.church/standards.htm .
We look forward to hearing from you and you may alert Minister
Angela Smith at
rev@cope.church if you meet
the criteria or wish to "Submit

ANIMAL RIGHTS/VEGANISM The animal rights
movement and call for veganism is based on misleading and/or false
information or a misunderstanding of where human rights are actually
at as a matter of law. Human beings who are deemed incompetent
as a matter of law as a result of not recognizing the difference
between right and wrong or truth and fiction become wards of the
state and/or require a competent human be responsible for their care
and supervision. So, nonhuman animals who do not
understand or comprehend human systems of law and social
expectations to keep the peace must have human guardians. And,
as a matter of law and practicality those guardians need a means of
acquiring and maintaining resources to responsibly care for their
wards (human or nonhuman). And, for incompetent humans that
often means sex and labor trafficking in segregated congregate care
which often results in premature death. So, it seems that
nonhuman animals have the same rights as incompetent humans and
require assistance in reporting criminal abuse and exploitation to
the proper authorities who will then seize and/or transfer them to
likely a similar storefront or service, but, maybe a good one that
is actually ethical. But, the point is nonhuman animals
currently have equal rights with incompetent humans at law.
Even when it comes to euthanasia or "pulling the plug" where someone
holds the power of attorney for a loved one that is human but
incompetent or unable to make decisions for themselves. So, to
improve animal rights, improving the rights of imcompetent humans
may be where to start. Animals currently have equal rights to
incompetent humans with exception that eating incompetent humans is
illegal in most jurisdictions where eating other species is not.
And, given the majority of species (including plants) on the planet
are omnivores, democratically speaking the omnivorous lifestyle wins
and evolution of plants and animal species supports this for anyone
who has studied zoology, anthropology, botany/gardening, and
evolution. Also, the vegans claim that they save lives by
preventing animals from existing in the first place. "The way
a vegetarian saves animals is by reducing the demand for meat and
causing fewer animals to be born into a harsh life owned by the meat
industry, where callousness abounds and mercy is scant."
Source:
http://www.countinganimals.com/how-many-animals-does-a-vegetarian-save/
That's not saving lives, that's promoting extinction because you
think not existing is better than existing if you have to live in
those conditions. And, it is pathetic because instead of
putting time, energy, and resources into actually making the world
more hospitable for all life, including nonhuman animals, you've
decided to promote extinction and call that saving lives. It's
one of the most despicable things and made even worse by the
environmental argument which PETA claims "Raising animals for food
requires massive amounts of land, food, energy, and water and causes
immense animal suffering. It takes an enormous amount of water
to grow crops for animals to eat, clean filthy factory farms, and
give animals water to drink. A single cow used for milk can drink up
to 50 gallons of water per day—or twice that amount in hot
weather—and it takes 683 gallons of water to produce just 1 gallon
of milk. It takes more than 2,400 gallons of water to produce 1
pound of beef, while producing 1 pound of tofu only requires 244
gallons of water. By going vegan, one person can save approximately
219,000 gallons of water a year." Source:
https://www.peta.org/issues/animals-used-for-food/meat-environment/
So, they argue there will be less animals and because of reduced demand
they won't be produced and you'll save resources for human use that
would be used to care for the animals raised for human use.
But, the amount of food waste, including a lot of animal products
(20% never makes it to retail and goes straight to landfills) annually,
shows that it doesn't reduce production and just leads to waste.
Source:
https://cok.net/food-waste-america/
So, not saving lives nor reducing production with the vegan
lifestyle.
In addition, PETA euthanizes more than 81% of their rescues.
Source:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/religion/at-petas-shelter-most-animals-are-put-down-peta-calls-them-mercy-killings/2015/03/12/e84e9af2-c8fa-11e4-bea5-b893e7ac3fb3_story.html
And, vinyl (aka "Pleather" or Faux Leather), gasoline,
plastic, synthetic fertilizer, and more is made of petroleum and
petroleum by-products which are animal-derived therefore not
"VEGAN". Sources:
https://drillingmatters.iadc.org/more-than-a-fuel/
and
https://www.ranken-energy.com/index.php/products-made-from-petroleum/
So, we believe we've effectively established above that
nonhuman animals and incompetent humans have the same or basically
the same rights right now so there is no need for an animal rights
movement calling for equality or equal treatment of humans and
animals because we are already treated equally in the eyes of the
law with competency being the standard bearer. And, since we
support and revere life and accept that there is both joy and
suffering in the spectrum that is existence, we support
utilitarianism with humane living conditions and that abuses of both
incompetent humans and nonhuman animals be reported to the proper
authorities in the proper jurisdiction where the offenses occurred.
And, people who can't be bothered to do the work (nor share the
wealth with actual farmers who could use the help to improve actual
living conditions for the animals) and when they rescue animals just
kill them because caring for them in their condition or natural
state is too difficult can shut the fuck up. Farms are
beautiful, farmers are lovely, and nature is God's creation for
which we are stewards and sowers not solely reapers. So, it is
COPE Ministries and the HEAL Mission's position that the animal
rights movement/vegan movement is ignorant, hypocritical, deceptive,
misleading, and deserving to be on this list.
ADDENDUM:
WHY YOU SHOULD BE AT LEAST OVO-LACTO VEGETARIAN AND REJECT VEGANISM
By Minister Angela Smith Vitamin B-12 is essential and deficiency
causes a lot of issues including heart disease, Alzheimer's, and
dementia. Source:
https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/vitamin-b12-deficiency-can-be-sneaky-harmful-201301105780.
Vitamin B-12 is only available from animal-derived sources including
eggs and milk. Sources:
https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/vitamin-b12-foods
and
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/health-and-fitness/ask-a-health-expert/how-can-i-get-enough-vitamin-b12-if-i-dont-eat-meat/article16777645/
Synthetic supplements for B-12 are not effectively bio-available and
may not be absorbed. In addition, the supplements are often derived
from petroleum by-product which is actually derived from ancient
animal remains so not vegan. Sources: SUPRA and
https://hydrobuilder.com/nutrients-and-fertilizer/synthetic-nutrients.html
and
https://www.cope.church/animalfactsheet.pdf .
Therefore, the vegan lifestyle is definitively unhealthy. But, if
you eat plenty of eggs and dairy, you may get enough B-12 without
eating meat too. Spread the word!

ENVIRONMENTAL MISINFORMATION EXPOSED:
Raw, Honest, Unflinching v. Machiavellian on Cause(s) of Climate
Change
by Minister Angela Smith, COPE Ministries and HEAL Mission
Co-Founder
The
Guardian reports that 97% of climate scientists agree that climate
change is caused by human activity.[1] The
Guardian cites the study cited by most when using that statistic
which is available here:
https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/8/2/024024.
But, the overall consensus considering all climate scientist
research puts the consensus that humans cause climate change at
32.6% according to that exact study. There was a second part to the
study, with a much smaller sample, which identified and then
eliminated 35.5% from that sample since from the sample of the
larger data those didn't take a position on whether humans had an
impact on climate change and were disqualified from inclusion in the
second part of the study for that reason. So, the remaining 64.5%
were split with 97.2% of that smaller sample supporting the position
that climate change is caused by humans and 2.8% of that 64.5%
saying they reject that position. So, in full context of the study
of the smaller sample, the actual percentage of those endorsing from
that smaller sample is 62.56% if you include those who find the
science yet undetermined. Phytoplankton, land-based plants, and
nonhuman animals reportedly make up most, if not all of that which
significantly contributes to climate change.[2][3][4]
Arguably some sources are better than others, but, we should all
think for ourselves freely and independently and not subject
ourselves to believing bullshit as a result of undue influence.

SELF-DEFENSE AGAINST FRAUD TIPS
Fraud is way more common than many seem to realize. So, to
assist you with understanding how common the problem is and how our
government does find fraud worthy of prosecution in tort and
criminal law depending on evidence and direct victims reporting it
to the proper authorities where they've discovered they are a victim
within the statute of limitations and/or timeframe an individual of
reasonable intelligence would've recognized the fraud. Please
see:
https://oig.hhs.gov/reports-and-publications/archives/enforcement/state_archive.asp,
https://www.atg.wa.gov/past-cases,
https://www.atg.wa.gov/news/news-releases/Consumer%20Alert
and
https://oig.hhs.gov/fraud/enforcement/state/index.asp.
Now, those links with the above list and information resources
should alert you that fraud is a serious problem. And,
academic fraud is also a serious problem that is ongoing because
frauds are an ongoing problem and when one is stopped, that doesn't
mean there aren't more out there that you may wish to exercise due
diligence to avoid. Here's some information on that:
https://www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/business-center/guidance/avoid-fake-degree-burns-researching-academic-credentials
And, so now you should be fully aware that fraud is a serious
problem and a threat to those who don't exercise due diligence
(and/or their loved ones).
So, in the event you don't trust anyone including the government,
you should be fine because you don't trust anyone which would mean
you are likely not trusting those who would deceive you for vicious
purposes. Now, if you don't trust a specific group and join a
cult/tribe of some sort that also decides they distrust or even uses
your distrust to "enemy of my enemy is my friend" you, then you are
being a hypocrite or dishonest in regards to not trusting anyone.
But, if you trust as if you are an innocent babe without a caregiver
you desperately need because of your own sheltered existence and
lack of awareness that fraud and other crimes happen on a regular
basis that law enforcement can't prevent, but, can and will respond
to if there is sufficient evidence for a warrant or arrest, then you
really need to either become more assertive in exercising due
diligence and aware of the world around you and your own reasonable
responsibility for yourself and/or anyone who is your dependent in
any way. There will never be a pre-crime unit like in
"Minority Report" starring Tom Cruise in the USA and if anyone
thinks about creating one, they will be violating the US
Constitution and specifically Bill of Rights. And, all the
government requires of We the People is that we recognize and
exercise our rights as well as our
responsibilities to report fraud to the proper law enforcement body
or sue. So, as
citizens we must actively protect ourselves by not being distracted
by shiny happy people defrauding us and take action to make sure our
wallets or loved ones are not spirited away by frauds or human
traffickers because "they seem so friendly and I was so emotional
so I just signed the contracts without even reading them".
Read the contract should one exist and where one doesn't get a
receipt. If you don't understand the contract, don't sign it.
Take it to a lawyer and have them explain it to you, legal aid
offices can help with that too if needed. If the terms are
described as "illusory" or "unconscionable", that means the
contract/agreement is likely voidable on those grounds and evidence
of fraud. Regulation of corporations doesn't prevent
malfeasance or corporate wrongdoing. The same or similar rules
apply where enough evidence exists for a warrant provided by a
direct victim or witness to the crime/violation(s). So, all
the regulations in the world don't matter unless properly reported
by often a direct victim who has suffered financial or bodily
harm. And, until all those who commit fraud or crime stop
doing it on their own or are apprehended, we all need to be
vigilant, but, not vigilantes.
This is intended to be helpful but no one, including anyone at HEAL
Mission and COPE Ministries wishes to do your thinking for you nor
all the specific research you may wish someone else would do that
would be helpful to you before making any purchasing decisions for
goods or services. We research in our own time and as quickly
as we can given limited resources ourselves. And, we listen to
victims and provide all opportunity to help educate the public about
the risks involved in failing to exercise due diligence. "An
ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." What does that
mean? It means that if you spend a little more time asking
questions and considering facts before purchasing goods and services
that you might totally avoid the hassle of having to sue, file
criminal charges, or consumer complaints later. But, if you
don't do that little bit of due diligence and critical thinking
beforehand, a lot of frustration and possible injustice is likely to
occur depending on
when you realize you've been defrauded. The links in the first
paragraph can help get you started on more tips and ideas for what
alerts to sign up for and through what office(s) in your state or
jurisdiction. But, if you don't trust the government, don't
trust anyone else either. In 2015, the report shows 21,995,000
employed by US Government. Source:
https://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/terence-p-jeffrey/21955000-12329000-government-employees-outnumber-manufacturing
And, the largest employer in the US is Wal*Mart with 1,500,000
employees. Source:
https://chicago.suntimes.com/2019/3/30/18395895/here-s-a-list-of-the-largest-employer-in-every-state
And, there are 331,000,000 people in the US. Source:
https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/3-ways-that-the-u-s-population-will-change-over-the-next-decade
That means about 7% of the US works for the government, or 7/100,
3.5/50, 1.75/25, average it at maybe 2 out of every 25 people work
for the government. So, if you want the government to enforce
laws for your protection, you have to trust the government enough
with that task by at least showing willingness to show up and report
it in a timely fashion as well as help prevent crime by exercising
personal responsibility including due diligence. But, if you
don't trust the government you should probably stay off the internet
and if sincere about that probably stopped reading after maybe the
first sentence of the second paragraph.
You have two options:
1. Sufficiently protect yourself by exercising due diligence
and avoiding becoming a victim of fraud while understanding it is
rampant in many sectors including healthcare, academic fraud, and
all sorts of scams. Know what you
are getting out of any contract in actual benefits (not illusory)
before signing or paying anything to anyone. Verify
licenses, credentials, and check for online reviews.
2. Whether you reasonably exercised due diligence or not, once
a victim don't deny it and throw tantrums as if in some cult, but,
acknowledge it and file complaints with the proper authorities where
a crime such as fraud (theft by deceit) or human trafficking has
occurred. And, know if the HEAL Mission and COPE Ministries
can help, we will. Truth and Justice is our main priority as
both are names of God.
But, that's it. There is no third option where you don't
protect yourself, get hurt, and then just demand everyone prevent
all possible harm that may occur to anyone else at all times through
the legislative process and having other people assigned to monitor
us all individually and collectively to make sure we're not
victimizing each other in some way. That's simply never going
to happen and is really unreasonable to request or suggest
otherwise. Many of us go above and beyond in doing our part to
protect our fellow citizens and support law enforcement. But,
if you require supervised care and a responsible adult that
exercises due diligence to prevent any and all possible harm that
may befall you, then may you find the level of support you require
while understanding you are then admitting to incompetence at law
most likely and may be stripped of rights along with relinquishing
your responsibilities in the social contract that is the US
Constitution and all applicable laws. So, make sure you are
responsible enough to report crimes or sue within the statutes of
limitation where otherwise you couldn't or didn't avoid becoming a
victim through no fault of your own. Sometimes shiny happy
people can tempt even a poet with the heart of a mystic, but, not
for long. And, emotional growth is bullshit, people really
need to work on critical thinking and honest reasoning.
Emotional growth happens in it's own way over time and if you
prioritize emotions, you end up with what we're all dealing with now
(arrested development) in the world of politics and often public discourse.
Prioritize critical thinking in business matters or any matter in
which you may part with cash. Feel good about the smart choice
even if instant gratification followed by bitter disappointment
seems good in the moment. The rest is up to you! |
