Ben Carson did surgery on baby brains. Often. And was successful. Yesterday, I watched my dog drag his ass on the ground. Advantage: Carson.

Pi Day: French Silk from Bakers Square

March 14, 2023

Carson is in the news as he’s been “in the mix” for the Republican presidential nomination, it looks like he won’t get it but that doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate the dude as having achieved some really cool shit. Hey, Wikipedia, what say you?

 

He was the Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Maryland from 1984 until his retirement in 2013. Among his achievements as a surgeon were separating conjoined twins and developing a hemispherectomy technique for controlling brain seizures. Both achievements were recognized in 2008 with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

 

I cannot stress how amazing this is. I don’t care what your politics are, this alone is the act of saints and shit. And the presidential medal of freedom is literally the highest honor a non-military guy can get. And he got it…TWICE!!

In 1973, Carson graduated from Yale University, where he majored in psychology.[20] He received his M.D. from the University of Michigan Medical School in 1977.

 

Those are good schools!

 

In 1987, Carson was the lead neurosurgeon of a 70-member surgical team that separated conjoined twins, Patrick and Benjamin Binder, who had been joined at the back of the head (craniopagus twins); the separation surgery held promise in part because the twin boys had separate brains.[31] Both boys entered the hospital “giggling and kicking” in preparation for surgery without which, it was said at the time, the seven-month-old twins would never have been able to crawl, walk, or turn over.[31] The Johns Hopkins surgical team rehearsed the surgery for weeks, practicing on two dolls secured together by Velcro.[31] Although follow-up stories were few following the Binder twins’ return to Germany seven months after the operation,[31] both twins were reportedly “far from normal” two years after the procedure, with one in a vegetative state.[31][32][33][34] “I will never get over this . . . Why did I have them separated?” said their mother, Theresia Binder, in a 1993 interview.[31] Neither twin was ever able to talk or care for himself, and both would eventually become institutionalized wards of the state.[31] Patrick Binder died sometime during the last decade, according to his uncle, who was located by the Washington Post in 2015.[31] The Binder surgery served as blueprint for similar twin separations, a procedure which was refined in subsequent decades.

 

He INVENTED a way to separate conjoined twins. I can barely keep doing this daily BHM gimmick.

 

In 1994, Carson and his wife started the Carson Scholars Fund, which awards scholarships to students in grades 4–11 for “academic excellence and humanitarian qualities”.[55] They founded it after reading that U.S. students ranked second to last in terms of math and science testing among 22 countries. They also noticed that schools awarded athletes with trophies, whereas honor students only received “a pin or certificate”.

 

Recipients of the Carson Scholars Fund receive a $1,000 scholarship towards their college education. It has awarded 6,700 scholarships.[55][56] In recognition for his work with the Carson Scholars Fund and other charitable giving throughout his lifetime, Carson was awarded the William E. Simon Prize for Philanthropic Leadership in 2005.[57]

 

Thats really nice nice of him.

 

Carson and his wife are members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church (SDA).[62][63] Carson was baptized at Burns Seventh-day Adventist Church on Detroit’s eastside. A few years later, he told the pastor at a church he was attending in Inkster, Michigan that he had not fully understood his first baptism and wanted to be baptized again, so he was.[64] He has served as a local elder and Sabbath School teacher in the Seventh-day Adventist Church.[65] His mother is a devout Seventh-day Adventist.[66] Although Carson is an SDA, the church has officially cautioned church employees to remain politically neutral.[67]

 

In an interview with Katie Couric, Carson said that Jesus Christ came to earth to redeem the world through his atoning sacrifice and that all people are sinners and need his redemption.[68][69]

 

Carson has stated he doesn’t believe in hell as understood by some Christians: “You know, I see God as a very loving individual. And why would he torment somebody forever who only had a life of 60 or 70 or 80 years? Even if they were evil. Even if they were only evil for 80 years?”. This is fully in line with Adventist teaching, which instead promotes annihiliationism.[70]

 

I like Adventists. Not always sure how they’re not Mormons but ok. It made him a vegetarian too. Luckily cows.

 

In a 1998 commencement speech at Andrews University, Carson publicly expressed the view that the Pyramids of Giza were not tombs, but grain silos built by Joseph, the Biblical son of Jacob, in preparation for the famine depicted in the Book of Genesis. He added that “various scientists” say ancient aliens could have designed the structures, but to Carson, “it doesn’t require an alien being when God is with you”.[199] Popular in medieval Europe, the belief that Joseph had the pyramids built as granaries was perpetuated by, among others, Gregory of Tours in the sixth century,[200] an Irish monk in the eighth century[who?], a mosaic in St. Mark’s Basilica dating from the twelfth,[201] and the travelogue attributed to John Mandeville in the fourteenth.[202]

 

In 2015, Carson reiterated his views. Archaeologists disagree, saying the pyramids could not be used to store grain because they are not hollow; also ancient Egyptian granaries have been well studied, there is evidence of burials inside the pyramids, and the ancient Egyptians left funerary instructions inside them.[203][204][205] Additionally, the Bible states that Joseph’s grain was kept in cities.[112]

 

Uh. That’s enough of that.

 

Oh, and he maybe is corrupt and into nepotism. Maybe.

    Ah, Ben and his grain silo pyramids that were all built during a 7 year period to store grain in tiny passages throughout this massive structure. He seems like a nice fellow; he must fit everything he sees in the world into the Genesis narrative, and he loves to embellish the evils of his youth.

    His medical achievements are brilliant.
