Type 2, I agree.  Type 1, that would not be a correct statement.

Hi Linny,
Thanks for sharing, very interesting stuff.
Here in the UK the national health service, our doctors etc are very big on correct nutrition and diet as preventative medicine......the only problem is, food manufacturers and advertising are not. For every 1 million spent by our government promoting healthy eating, 10 million is spent by food companies advertising junk food. And good nutritional fresh food is way more expensive in the supermarkets than junky ready prepaired food with fancy packaging to catch the eye of kids.
When I was a child, me and my brothers were never allowed to go shopping for groceries with my mother. We ate what she brought home.........maybe that's not such a bad thing, what with food companies exploiting child pester power these days.

You would have fit in perfectly with Herbert W. Armstrong's teachings.  I will not comment on how many people died unnecessarily because of his ignorance of the Lord.  He let his wife die - she did not have to ( and NUMEROUS other people)..

MT 9:12 Jesus approved of doctors.  He said, it is not the healthy that need a doctor, but the sick.

(quote you ) "The early doctors and the fathers of modern medicine believed in nutrition" .  That is just partially correct.  And we know today how important vitamins and all that kind of stuff is for our health.  But back in those old days they had doctors that put stitches in people.  They had doctors that put leeches on people to suck out the poison and eat the puss.  Lenny, with all the glorious things that you just said, and if all that be true, then I would love to be able to meet you and maybe walk in your shadow and be healed of my infirmities.  I have yet to see a human being in this age have the faith that it takes to walk on water or heal the sick.  Me and mine, we believe in Jesus and we try in faith to obey his laws and commandments.  Which one?  All of them.  I believe that the people that let the little girl die should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.  Number 1 charge:  ignorance.  Number 2 charge:  first degree manslaughter.  How so?  Well, if they would have known the Lord that good, they would have known that God continually gives mankind knowledge - to help us in this age.  We have to take into consideration that we have doctors today that are very knowledgeable.  They have dedicated at lot of their lives to obtaining this knowledge.  Until Jesus tells me personally not to go or take my children to a doctor, I will have to put my trust in the doctor every time. 

As a matter of fact, there is a young man on this forum studying to be a doctor.  What kind of doctor, I don't know.  His name is Alex.  To be a doctor, he has to involve a lot of his time (his youth)  to his study.  There is a sacrifice there.  My point is that there are doctors that do care and do these medical works in the name of the Lord.  It's not that they believe and have to do personally with pharmaceutical labs but they know what relieves pain and a fever.

If it sounds like I have a case of the a -- it is because I do.

P.S.  I agree with Sorin on this.  They should serve a VERY long time.  Their baby is dead and they didn't do what could have been done to avoid this.  Of course, it's all of God.  Amen....

Hi, this is Paula, Dewey's wife

I just had to ask you one question, Lenny.  When your wife gave birth to your child(ren) did she go to a hospital with doctors or did she deliver at home with a mid-wife?  Did you get the best possible care? or trust it to the Lord at home?  If you did it a home, fine.  But if you went to the hospital what changed your faith now saying that it should have been done without doctors at home?  Just curious.

Love ya

I understand that the drug companies are corrupt and that the FDA stifles natural remedies.  The point is, is that when offered a way to live, it should be taken advantage of.  The parents here prayed for a mirracle.  The mirracle is readily available in the form of insulin (I think that's what they use).  Are there better ways?  Probably.  But people should always search for the best ways available to enjoy and prolong their life.
