Limited involvement with list = off to fight a battle

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

Many of you will remember me taking off for two months to Europe last Sept & Oct as part of the Religious Tolerance Crusade Freedom Marathon in France (I was the Co-Captain of the running team) due to the French government attempting to pass an anti religion bill which would outlaw 173 different religions including Naturopathy. The bill passed the French Senate a little over a month ago and was signed into law. This outlawed the 173 religions which includes the Baptists, Mormons, Scientologists, Seventhday Adventists, Jehova Witnesses and many many more. It basically means that a person would be thrown into prison and subject to a $10,000 fine for practising his or her sacred religious beliefs (anyone reminded of prewar Nazi Germany?). Since Sprititual health is all important to a Naturopath and Naturopathy itself is threatened, I've been asked to Captain one of the teams this year (This year we'll have 5 teams) and I will be the "In-Charge" of the Italian team. I'll be gone for the tail end of Sept of this year to the end of Oct (or longer if I get thrown in jail) and I wanted to let y'all know why I have not been so involved list-wise recently, as I have been very involved with the preparations. As "D" day gets closer, my list involvement will continue to dwindle until non-existent. Valorie, Mary and James will continue to monitor and moderate the list on my behalf and I know that many of you talented Naturopaths will continue to take up the slack while I'm gone and I really appreciate your back-up.

 

Wish me luck, postulates, and your prayers.

 

Much love,

 

Doc

This is pretty scary that it should be necessary. How in the world did something like this come about???? Obviously it's very important, and I'll definitely be sending you luck and many prayers for the month that you are gone. And of course we'll NOT see you in jail!

Hugs and best wishes, Valerie
