Although facts are unalterable, they can be interpreted in different ways, and often an incorrect interpretation, unchallenged, becomes mistakenly accepted as the truth. And when such a false fact is mixed among the real facts as pieces of the jigsaw (sometimes getting stretched a bit to make it fit), confusion is inevitable, leading to further mistakes. Realizing this, two approaches to the puzzle must therefore be adopted; first, the false pieces must be identified and discarded, and then the remaining true pieces must be fitted together. This is what I have tried to do, acting as it were as chairman of a brainstorming session, the members of which are the people whose names appear in the chapters that follow. Each of these thinking individuals, past and present, have contributed to clarify the emerging picture, the genuineness of which is displayed by the harmony with which the separate pieces fit together. Not many of these outstanding people have received the recognition due to them, and in most cases their achievements, considered "oddball" by the rank and file, have been ignored. Such is the lot of everybody who comes up with unusual ideas, and this is fair enough, because in human affairs, oddballs are potentially more dangerous than plodders, while their unusual ideas, if really sound, eventually win through. Whether my characters deserve the credit I pay them, readers can decide for themselves. Even greater credit is due to researchers forced to go it alone when rejected by lesser mortals and repressed by ignorant "powers that be". Names like Bechamp, Kuhne, De Lacy Evans, Densmore, Bell, Dewey, Tilden, Gerson, Koch, Moerman, Howell, Shelton, Hoxsey, Rabinowitch, Morrison, Pritikin and Mendelsohn come to mind from out of the past. But it is the present-day champions of the truth who most urgently need our acknowledgment and support as they strive to free the medical profession from its straitjacket of dogma and ignorance. Gradually they are succeeding. In the field of heart disease the medical professionals are now adopting the ideas of Nathan Pritikin they not long ago ridiculed, and in the field of cancer they are beginning to tune in to Max Gerson's methods for natural remissions of cancer, still successfully being demonstrated by Dr Gerson's daughter, Charlotte, of the Gerson Institute in California. Fighting hardest against "the forces of agnosticism" (as Professor Otto Warburg called them) in the field of AIDS are people like Professor Peter Duesberg, Professor Robert Roote-Bernstein, Dr Joan McKenna, Dr Laurence Badgley, Dr Joe Sonnerbend, Dr Michael Culbert, and journalists John Lauritsen and Jad Adams. To these steadfast individuals I wish to give special acknowledgment for the information they have provided me and for their kind permission to quote them liberally. These people are made of the "right stuff" and in my estimation rate with the fighter pilots of the Battle of Britain in that when their fight is over it will be said of them: "Never before in the field of human conflict has so much been owed by so many to so few." Page 3 Author's Preface When a man's science exceedeth his sense, He perishes by his ignorance. Oriental proverb Viewed from space today, Planet Earth looks little different from how it would have looked a thousand years ago. Oceans and continents clearly visible in technicolor, veiled in swirling wisps of white clouds--it makes a pretty picture. Closer inspection, however, reveals big changes: less forest land, more deserts, more smoke haze, more scars. Damage, man-made. But that's only the visible damage. There is far more damage that you cannot see: the Earth's remaining soil is depleted of life-sustaining minerals, the oceans are polluted and depleted of marine life, and many species of animals and trees have vanished. Humans have been gradually destroying our planet for thousands of years, but with the discovery of oil and the internal combustion engine, accompanied with the human population explosion, destruction over the last hundred years has brought about a situation nearing total disaster. Still the numbers increase, still the "national economies" expand, still we exhort greater efforts for "productivity". It's as if we are passengers on a speeding Titanic, equipped with modern radar that the captain doesn't understand. The warning is there, loud and clear, but the crew is pre-occupied with attending to the comfort of passengers. "Those whom the gods wish to destroy, they first make mad"--Euripides (485-406 BC) has been quoted many times since uttering those words. Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) put it a different way, predicting that "man's half-cleverness would be the means of his own destruction . ." Are we mad? Or just "half-clever"? It doesn't matter: the final result will be the same, and already the future of the next few generations is a most uncertain one, even for those in the most favored circumstances. The 21st Century will undoubtedly witness the resolution of the world's overpopulation problem, and because the problem is, despite our best efforts to solve it, getting worse instead of better, it is inevitable that the matter will be resolved in the same manner by which other kinds of plagues have been terminated in the past. Food is the main limiting factor, not only the quantity of it but also the quality--a fact that is making itself felt today where more people in the world die of semi-starvation on a full stomach than those that die of complete starvation on an empty stomach. (By semi-starvation I mean malnutrition-related disease due to poor quality food, a topic which forms the main theme of this book.) In the distant past, when major upheavals upset the equilibrium of the Earth's various inhabitants, some species became extinct while others, purged of their weak, improved. Out of this rigorous process emerged the human race, which has survived and flourished by virtue not of physical strength but of mental strength. It is the fittest that survive, and in human affairs fitness for survival is measured in terms of mental capacity. It is a mistake to measure mental capacity simply on a person's degree of success in financial or Page 4 academic circles; a more reliable indicator is the state of their physical health and their general philosophy on life. It does not display great intelligence to make a fortune only to be worried about your health and maybe die of a heart attack or some other avoidable disease. Most "diseases of civilization" are avoidable, and the Western world's vast and increasing health problems today are a reflection of the ignorance and "half-cleverness" of our supposedly well- informed leaders and medical technocrats, together with the money-making aspirations of the food manufacturers and the pharmaceutical industry. Thus, while it is all very well to feel compassion for diseased and starving populations elsewhere in the world, and to condescendingly send them food supplies so they can continue to live and breed, we should not assume that we are a great deal better off ourselves. Food is the major factory in health and survival; the widespread health problems we have are direct reflections of the biochemical quality of our food. As our soil becomes more and more depleted, as our food becomes more and more manufactured, so our bodies display the evidence. Death by heart attack, cancer, asthma or diabetes is as final as that from starvation. We must deal with our immediate problems at home stemming from poor nutrition in the midst of plenty if we are to survive as a healthy nation. Our medical experts are failing to deal with these problems because they don't understand them, so we must understand and deal with them ourselves. Whatever the adversity we are faced with now or in the future, we can best survive if we know what to expect and how to deal with it.

The word "salubrious" comes from the Latin word "salubris" meaning "healthy; wholesome; sound; useful; vigorous". Webster's dictionary defines the English derivative "salubrious" as: 1. favorable to, or promoting health or well being; invigorating; 2. spiritually wholesome; conducive to good results". It is in this context of fully promoting the health and well being of the White Race that we use this term in its true literal meaning. We of the CHURCH OF THE CREATOR want to differentiate this term from "Natural Hygiene popularly used for many decades by health practitioners devoted to this worthy art and science.

  • Book Recommendations As of June 22Nd, 2012
    J. J. Anderson’s Book Recommendations As of June 22nd, 2012 Note: Some books are out of print but available through used book dealers and online sources. Try Powell’s Books in Portland, Oregon (powells.com) or Amazon.com. ☼ Highly Recommended Listening In: Dialogues With the Wiser Self, Ellen Meredith, Horse Mountain Press (1993) This wise and wonderfully balanced book is listed first because it is a “must read.” In December of 2008, I found my used copy through an Amazon.com third party offering. Although it may be out of print, the book is still available on the Internet. It is inexpensive but priceless. See About “channeling” (pages 3 and 4) in my book, Only a Leaf, for more on Meredith. How to Know God, Deepak Chopra, Harmony Books, NY (2000) In this, perhaps the crown jewel of his writing, Chopra explores his ideas that everyone can have a direct experience of God and that “the brain is hardwired to know God.” He says the human nervous system has seven biological responses corresponding to seven levels of experience with God. Our purpose in striving to know God is so we each can “become the author” of our own existence. Consent, Newton Dillaway, The Montrose Press (1947) or Unity Books (1947, 1950, 1957) This classic is well worth searching for. Dillaway offers timeless insights into consenting to “go with the inward the flow” of universal power and to follow its leading. This consent gives rise to what he calls “normal [effortless] action.” “Tension is the source of all error,” he says, and our basic problem is “the inability to consent to the release of fear.” Only Two Can Play This Game, G.
