Conscience
and
Controversy


I have always tried to keep the diet and lifestyle of our family as natural and caring as possible. I have a wonderful collection of books on many topics: Christian, natural foods, organic gardening, natural and herbal healing, the environment and many more.

With the advent of the internet, the amount of information available is phenomenal. I have folders in my "bookmarks" on my browser labeled "Need to Know", "Conscience", and "Environment". The following is a list of links for these topics. There is some very important information here. I hope you find something that is useful for you.

Joy and blessings,
