As a meteorologist, 1 was very
much impressed by
you~
article
"Drougbts, Floods, Weather Disas–
ters- Why?" Our question, as
meteorologists, is where and when
will moisture precipitate. So while
Mr. X will complain of lack of rain–
fall, Mr. Y will complain about
ftoods. This balance (having enough
precipitation at the right time) is
beyond human control. With all the
new discoveries, none has been close
to this mucb needed balance. There is
no way out except to fall on our knees
and seek God, who will hear our
prayers and bless our land.

Education
Thanks for the excellent article on
our responsibilit ies in educating our
children safely and properly. Fortu–
nately for our children my wife fore–
saw the danger you discussed and is
teaching our two at home. Because
she has both the ability and the "giv–
ing attitude," versus the "get"-them–
out-of-my-hair mood, the results have
been superb. Our local township's
school principal described the results
as
"fantastic."
The article also showed how
important it is to spend time with our
children to help counter the 16,000
hours of possible negative inftuence

Gorilla Speaks Out
The article "A Gorilla Speaks Out
Against Evolution" was excellent.
Human beings indeed are qualitative–
ly different from mere animals.
Human beings can love and bate;
tbey can cry and understand and
laugh at the meaning of a joke.
Human beings can engage in proposi–
tional speech and use and compre–
hend symbols; they possess the inher–
ent capacity to make free choices and
judgments.
True, animals can procreate, even
as humans can procreate; but only
mancan see that sex is more than just
a physical act, that there is a sacred–
ness to sex, marriage and procre-
ation.

Food Additives
Many thanks for the article on
food and food additives. 1 had not
really considered that refined and
processed foods are a necessary out–
growth of families and societies that
want everything in a hurry. Lack of
time combined with the fact that
people think they like the taste of
these foods makes them very accept–
able. Most people are not really con–
vinced that these foods are harmful to
their health so they continue to fol–
low the crowd and eat tbe processed
foods that are so easily available.
I hope you will have more articles
in the future dealing with the harm–
ful effects of poor diet so that people
will understand why it is necessary to
make changes and take the time to
prepare and eat wholesome natural
foods.

"What You Need to Know About
Food and Food Additives" is a very
well done article. The author quoted
from sorne of your earlier writings
and from the Bible. This gave me a
new perspective on the Holy Book
and health. Please send me the fol–
lowing booklets:

Personal Finances

mal Flesh Good Food?"

Smoking
After reading "New Truth About
Smoking" 1 feel compelled to write.
My brother, sisters and
I
st ill live
with my parents-both of whom
smoke.
1
don't suppose my parents
will ever read this letter but perhaps
it will start sorne others thinking.
There is no one in autbority over the
parents to enforce a no-smoking rule so
the children are not harmed, and in
many households (such as ours),
requests that the parents kick the habit
are ignored or rudely rebuffed.
Please parents, reconsider what you
are doing to your children!
Tf
you do
not show respect for your children's
health now, can you really expect their
respect later?

· with me and sbowed it to my boss.l have

is going to put one in for us.

In the article about the Queen
Mother and Prince Charles, the
Prince is improperly dressed in Naval
uniform. What happened was, the
negative was reversed. His medal rib–
bon is shown on bis right breast. As a
Royal Naval veteran, I think this
mistake calls for an apology. 1 enjoy
the magazine ·very much. Thanking
you in anticipation.
