Oh, Tony, this absolutely incredible work you've done. I can't fathom the years of work that went in to produce a mini magnum opus like this. Your heart, your fire, your passion come out- jumps off the page, actually, compelling the reader to action. I am simply amazed.

My first response, in the "what can we do" camp, is a suggestion that we remain in constant prayer. I think we need to pray for one another- for us on CZ, for every person who has grown to love holistic health care, and especially for those of us who are seeing health restored with it. We need to pray for people like you, Tony, and our dear friends who produce other health newsletters, who inform us of the political side of this. We need to be in very special prayer for precious small business owners like you and our mutual dear friend Ben Taylor of Utopia Silver who is risking everything he holds dear in order to bring natural supplements to us. I didn't realize the risks y'all are taking until I read of the horrible FDA raids involving others. We need to be in constant, vigilant prayer for our sweet America. We really do have unalienable, sovereign rights give to us by God/YWEH and we really are in danger of having them slip from our fingers. And definitely, we must pray to take back our judicial system, our health care system, our education system, and every other institution for God/YWEH and from Satan.

I have a little sad note for you regarding Tom Wiggins, of Waco Natural Foods, mentioned in your post. I knew Tom well, and called him a dear friend. He died two years ago of colon cancer. The article says the FDA didn't bother Tom after the raid in 1993, but they did. And when the FDA/Texas Dept. of Health couldn't shut his store down (which btw, was about a two minute drive from my house), the IRS audited him and harrassed him for years. He did shut down (I think in 2003), and then his body shut down from the stress. The building was bulldozed two years ago, and nothing remains of the place but the slab it was on.

Tom knew the Lord Jesus Christ and he knew holistic health care. He loved his customers. He was like a walking Curezone. I, or any other person, could go in there to his store with any issue, and he would talk to them/us for an hour in his office, explaining how naturopathic health care works. He would walk you through the store, picking up product after product- and he had health food, too, like bulk grains and organic raisins, before any of this was cool in Waco. He had a whole wall of organic herbs in bulk. He wasn't an herbalist, but he carried them for those who were. He would put all the products on a table and make his recommendations. If the customer had a tight budget, like most of us, he would say, "then start with this, and get this under control, and we will work together over time." And he prayed for every person who walked through that door. He not only prayed for their physical health, he prayed for their spiritual health, always sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ when he prayed. Y'all would have adored him. He was a good man.

Thank you, Tony, for this piece. I read every word. :-) I pray for you (and your sweet assistant Miss May) every day.

Donna
