Thor's Day: Do you have blind faith in Him?

By Jim Rix

I had thought of doing a sequel to my article “What is the Cause of Heart Disease?” changing “Heart Disease” to “Diabetes.” It would be easy to present real evidence that supports the fact that Diabetes, like Heart Disease, is a consequence of diet. But, in my efforts over the years to promote the health benefits of a plant-based diet, I have observed that most people would rather be put in solitary confinement with an insurance salesman than hear about food’s relation to health.
    There are many reasons for this lack of interest in the subject. However, from what I’ve observed, the most significant reason people find it difficult to consider whether a plant-based diet is healthier than eating animal products is that He is silent on the issue. For example, if you come to Him with a chronic disease, He will not tell you that your diet is the cause; rather, He will lead you to believe that your “heredity” is.
