The Cullen-Snyder Framework (v.1.2) Application #011 – Requisite Vitalism By Way of ND Sensenig and ND Joy

here, the eleventh application of the Cullen-Snyder Framework. I decided to do a 27-year-spanning source document analysis of what the AANMC video in the recent post, titled "A 2026-10 AANMC Video: ND Students, Science, Coded Vitalism, and What It Could Mean in Terms of 'Making'?", did not transparently share, 'naturopathy's requisite science-ejected vitalism they falsely science-posture':

001. the CSF used:

was v1.2, which I reserve usually for larger systemic analyses and policy recommendations [available at Archive.org here];

002. the source documents:

[the CSF and the three documents below were attached as one DOCX for the prompt thread and are referenced within the generated report as "cite: 1" 68 times];

my 1998 ND Sensenig Lecture #4 notes from ND school [a doctoral program within a "Division of Health Sciences" at a school that categorized itself as "non-sectarian" (here, along with material distributed by Sensenig from 2 other sessions within the same course); this school was the centerpiece of my borrower defense to repayment approved case / complaint / stance];

a 2011 conference presentation by ND Sensenig on vitalism [which I own; available here; discussed way back in Episode 001b circa 2013];

a 2025 ND Joy article in NDNR on vitalism [available here;

My 2026 Successful Borrower Defense to Repayment Case: $190,000 Scrubbed for Institutional Misconduct (ISYN!).

here, I’ll share great news of an incremental win in terms of my ‘naturopathy educational exploitation’ while acknowledging that the fight is perpetual and larger than just my case, my experience, and merely loans:

[2026-09-26. Note: I am not whole, I’ll emphasize – as in my quarter-century-plus career hole created by the AANP-AANMC-CNME-CAND-NABNE-CNPA etc. induced diversion / falsehood].

001. my student loan aggregate has been largely annulled!!!:

after decades of carrying a very large amount of student loans due to graduate school — a poor boy trying to get forward since the mid-1990s; like being at the bottom of an empty, 1-mile deep well eventually — I owe a lot less money in light of the Department of Education’s acceptance of my borrow defense to repayment argument this 2026.

presently, I do not know the details of their thinking as such hasn’t been communicated -- what is still outstanding is part of a program I attended that had loans discharged.

at its largest, the education debt looked like this or so in 2025 while in good standing [about $190,000]:

 

 and I’d always say it was like having a mortgage but without the house to show for it.

as in debt slavery. 

yes, quite remarkable!

indeed miraculous -- to now be a partial school misconduct survivor.

as the .gov site states [I'll paraphrase]:

institutional misconduct is a definitive, foundational trait of an approved borrower defense to repayment discharge.

'Sonoran U. of H.S. Subset Naturopathy' 2026: Vulnerabilities, Contradictions, Transgression Models, and a mcgill.ca Comportment

here, some ai-llm musings via prompts that interrogate Sonoran's own language concerning naturopathy [as presented to the current Google Gemini default model - I have not altered the responses]:

001. first the epistemic contradictions and the behavioral contradictions:

001.a. prompt:

"The attached DOCX documents are from Sonoran University of Health Sciences. Is there any issues with the health science categorization of naturopathy upon its goals of treating life force and spirit, and upon its therapies used? And do any of those issues contradict advised student behaviors as expressed in the attached PDF?"

 [The Sonoran documents that were used are, respectively: here, here, and here].

001.b. answer:

“Based on the provided documents from Sonoran University of Health Sciences, the institutional frameworks, goals, and mandated student behaviors reveal significant operational and epistemic contradictions when evaluated against a standard 'health science' categorization.

Ill-gotten by Injunction: Capturing and Monetizing the Administrative Machinery of the State, 2026

here, thoughts/musings [by way of Google's Gemini 4 Argon ai-llm model] on "ill-gotten gains and the profits made from leveraging the instruments of government and administrative structure" by ***you know who*** [all persons' names have been removed]:

001. in light of a few sources used in the Gemini thread:

the 2026 CT ND Final Report;

an AANMC-centric collection consisting of: their initial announcement of a lawsuit against the USDE, their celebratory announcement of a preliminary injunction, and the 2026-10 injunction itself;

and the CT ND Practices Dataset the 2026 Final Report was based upon; 

002. this prompt was presented:

"In terms of the report that was generated, speak to 'ill-gotten gains and the profits made from leveraging the instruments of government and administrative structure'."

003. the answer:

"When viewed through the analytical architecture of the 2026 CT ND Final Report, the AANMC Injunction 2026 documents, and the CT NDs' Practices Dataset, the concept of 'ill-gotten gains and the profits made from leveraging the instruments of government and administrative structure' describes a closed-loop political economy of state-sanctioned rent-seeking.

[Note. Regarding the above highlight, in lay language, that's:

"a fancy way of describing a government-backed money machine that feeds itself. It happens when an industry uses laws, government licenses, and public money to guarantee its own profits—without actually having to prove that what it sells works [...] think of it like a four-stop merry-go-round where the money keeps flowing, but the science is never checked:
