#Clinton v. Jones #Case Summary
By Laura Temme, Esq. | Legally reviewed by Joseph Fawbush, Esq. | Last reviewed August 29, 2023

..."Paula Corbin Jones filed a #lawsuit in 1994 alleging that #President Bill Clinton had sexually harassed her when he was governor of Arkansas. By the time she filed a sexual harassment lawsuit, he was president -- and claimed the presidency made him #immune to civil #litigation.

The case led to an important ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1997. It also propelled former White House intern Monica Lewinsky into the national spotlight when court documents became public.

The #SupremeCourt held that nothing in the #Constitution protects the president from civil lawsuits while they are in office. And President Clinton was eventually impeached for lying under oath."...

Spiritual immune systems

Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later give rejection to the illusory worldview grafted upon them from birth through social conditioning. They begin sensing that something is amiss, and start looking for answers. Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences show them a side of reality others are oblivious to, and so begins their journey of awakening. Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of following the crowd and by choosing knowledge over the veils of ignorance. ― Henri Bergson

I'm currently reading a #book called #Immune by #PilippDettmer which, as the name suggests, is about the #ImmuneSystem. It's fun to read and turns the immensely complicated immune system into something that you can start to understand. Of course, it draws heavily on analogies and metaphors but it seems to maintain at least an essence of how it all works. It is also nicely illustrated and the chapters are only about half a dozen or so pages long and so you can pick it up and read a chapter in a few spare minutes. Enlightening stuff.

No surprise - kids who play in gardens are healthier

Daycares in Finland Built Their Own 'Forests', And It Changed Kids' Immune Systems. Playing through the greenery and litter of a mini forest's undergrowth for just one month may be enough to change a child's immune system, according to an experiment in Finland.
