As a Muslim,
1
extend my
fullest appreciation once again,
furthermore, that

extremely refreshing to know
that such a source of
Christians and good Christian

Your article entitled "The
Role of Television in the
Decline of U.S. Prestige" was
superb.
lt
told me sorne very
informative things. 1 never
knew anything about U.S.
television in foreign countries
giving a distorted idea of what
daily life is like in the U.S.
l'm a new subscriber and
already

very
impressed
with the

Referring to your article in

(July-August)
about Australia: We here most
strongly object to the absurd
idea that this country is

Being an insurance broker,
1
have to visit the homes and
offices of many people and am
amazed and glad to see the
copies of
The Plain Truth
in
those places. These people are
not even Christians, but are
Muslims or Hindus.

from home any more. 1 have
been promoted from secretary

hopefully for good. But
1
want
at this time to say what a
privilege it has been

the only thing

... As for your Bible
Course, well
1
don't th ink that
would be for me, as
1
am a
Catholic. But
1'
noticed that
your magazine is very fair
with al! religions.
1
enjoy your magazine,
especially the articles on the
different religions in Europe
and the Middle East.
1
never
understood much about them
but your magazine explains
them quite well.

1
think
J
should be allowed
space in your fast-growing
magazine to encourage
readers to enroll in the Bible
Course.
1
personally appreciate
the Y(ay the course is
compiled. The course is simple
and straightforward and it's
the most up-to-date and
realistic Bible study. Also, it
relates the prophecies of God
to the happenings of the
present age.
1
really appreciate
your services.

experience.

Czechoslovakia
People reading the article
on life in Czechoslovakia get a
wrong impression of the nation
under communism.
People do not wait in
queues for simple purchases
just because of a bureaucratic
distribution system but
because of the whole economic
and social system; the working
morale is low and the
productivity is low. A very
high proportion of national
product in communist
countries (higher than in the
West) is spent on the
production of arms.
The writer mentioned that
Czechoslovakia was
"liberated" from the Nazis by
the Soviet Army. However, it
should have been mentioned
that in May 1945 units of
Patton's army reached the
outskirts of Prague but had to
withdraw since Stalin insisted
that the Red Army must enter
Prague first!

Good for Food?
This refers to the article in
your J uly/ August issue
entitled " ls All Animal Flesh
Good for Food?"
1
was
amazed to learn that clams,
oysters, lobsters, shrimp as
well as bacon, ham, etc., are
prohibited by the Bible.
l f we al! adhered to this
type of abstaining, the pork as
well as the seafood industries'
restaurants would meet with a
national catastrophe.
1 would be interested in
learning the views of
other theologians on this
subject.

One night when
1
was
working
1
turned on my radio
and heard your voice.
1
listened very carefully to what
you were saying and it does
make a lot of sense. 1 now
listen to you every night and
sometimes twice a night on
two different stations.
1
have never in my life heard
anyone else speak like you do.
1
have also been reading
The Plain Truth
and it has
given life a real meaning to
me. Through it, 1 am learning
how to discipline myself.

Change Others?
1
enjoyed the article
"Should You Try to Change
Others?"
lt
reminds me about
my school days when we were
forced to attend Bible Study
classes. A lot of students now
actually stay away because of
that.
1
like the way you explain
things in the Bible and tell us
to read it ourselves.
