Surviving Toxic Terrorism (Part 1)

“How did your five-year-old son Seth get so much lead, arsenic, cadmium, and uranium in his body?” is the most common question I get these days from people after they discover how lab results revealed that these poisons were indeed inside my boy, and after they learn how our efforts to detoxify Seth from heavy metals has resulted in reversing an awful seizure disorder that first struck him when he was three.

I’ll answer that question shortly.

But first, let me increase the mystery by saying that in June of 2010 I too was tested for heavy metals to see what was lurking inside my head (I’m 51 years old). Snip snip. The scissors were held by Dr. Jon Mundall (Spokane WA) who is board certified in heavy metal toxicology. After placing strands of my hair in a bag, he promptly sent them to a lab. Four weeks later, the results came in. “Elevated levels of lead, cadmium, arsenic, and uranium”-the same substances we discovered in Seth. Snip, snip, snip. My two-year-old daughter was tested, too. Same thing. She’s loaded.

How is this possible?

After eight months of intense research into toxic chemicals and their relationship to increasingly common woes like seizures, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, MS, arthritis, cancer, and a multitude of other fearful conditions, I now know that my family received these poisons from the air, the water, the soil, the supermarket, and from the personal care products we all use everyday day like shampoo, shaving creme and deodorant. Believe it or not, you and I are members of the most toxic generation that has ever existed since man first walked the earth. We’re all victims. There’s no escaping it.

In the last eight months I have read the following enlightening books:

Detoxify or Die, by Dr. Sherry Rogers, M.D.

Invisible Killers, by Rik Deitsch and Stewart Lonkey, M.D.

Fateful Harvest, by Duff Wilson.

Each is easily available on Amazon.com. Believe me, they’re worth reading.

The TV ministry that I direct, White Horse Media, just launched a new section on our website called Surviving Toxic Terrorism. You can easily find the link on our home page (see www.whitehorsemedia.com). Take a look. Click around. Read some posts. Watch some video clips (they’re all available on You Tube). Be enlightened. Be warned.

One link on our website goes to a series of posts published in The Seattle Times called “Fear in the Fields: How Hazardous Waste Becomes Fertilizer.” The lead paragraph reports:

A Seattle Times investigation found that, across the nation, industrial wastes laden with heavy metals and other dangerous materials are being used as fertilizer and spread over farmland. The process, which is legal, saves dirty industries the high costs of disposing of hazardous wastes. (July 3-4, 1997).

In Fateful Harvest (mentioned above) reporter Duff Wilson first investigates, and then documents, this largely secretive and dangerous practice. As unbelievable as it sounds-it’s happening. Across the United States hundreds of large industrial and chemical companies are saving millions of dollars by disposing of billions of tons of dangerous toxic wastes, not by sending these poisons to landfills (which they should be doing), but by conveniently labeling them as “products” (which aren’t regulated by the EPA), and then selling them as “bulk soil amendments” to reputable fertilizer companies.

It’s a toxic trade, and most farmers don’t even know it is happening. Poisonous wastes are silently seeping from big industry onto railcars, to fertilizer companies, and then on to farmland, gardens, and crops like potatoes, corn, wheat, and strawberries. Unknowingly, when we innocently purchase produce from our local supermarket, these deadly chemicals (which don’t appear on any labels) often slip silently into our bodies and those of our children. Outrageous, isn’t it? For proof, read Duff’s book.

On July 3rd I spoke about chemical invasion at a church in Chewelah, Washington, not far from where my family lives in peaceful Priest River, Idaho. “Here’s my story,” said a woman who shook my hand at the door. “I’m a farmer, and some time ago I visited another farmer in Rosalia Washington who owns thousands of acres of wheat. I quickly noticed that there were no gophers on his land. ‘What’s your secret,’ I asked my friend. His response amazed me. ‘There are so many chemicals in my soil that gophers can’t live here,’ the man replied. Then he said, ‘There’s not even a worm on my land.’ That’s when the lights went on in my head about what’s really happening.”

Dumfounded, I asked this lady, “What happens to all that wheat? Is it harvested to feed animals?” “No,” she quickly replied, “It goes into the whole wheat bread you purchase at the market.” Might this contribute to “wheat intolerances”? My wife and I now make our own bread, thank you.

The book of Revelation warns:

Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has but a short time (Revelation 12:12).

While I don’t believe Satan himself is directly inserting millions of tons of formaldehyde, dioxins, PCBs, and heavy metals into earth’s atmosphere and human bodies, he is certainly working behind the scenes to destroy the human race. Just like he first spoke through a serpent in Eden, even so today he works through agents (and agencies-even government ones) “to steal, and to kill, and to destroy” (John 10:10). “He was a murderer from the beginning,” Jesus warned. He is a murderer today.

Thankfully, God still rules from His throne, and He is stronger than the Evil One. The more I research this topic, the more impressed I am at how the Great Physician is now working to help humanity survive toxic terrorism, and to serve Him fully. In the last eight months my son’s condition has greatly improved. His smiling face brings joy to my heart everyday.

The best news of all is that Jesus Christ died for our sins, and rose from the dead. The Bible plainly teaches that the salvation of our souls is infinitely more important that walking about with a pain-free body. Nevertheless, our health is important too (see 3 John 2), and our kind heavenly Father is deeply concerned about it.

In Part 2, I will share some of the things I have learned about how to detoxify our bodies, and improve our health.

It is possible to survive toxic terrorism.
