Guest guest Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 It's kind of interesting the different views on this codex. Although it is possible, just not probable that the FDA would " ever " be involved in supporting something they did not come out ahead of the game supporting. Once we are under that codex, there is no turning around. The " world trade organization " or the kings without a kingdom, will not help our cause, they will not enforce freedom, they will end it. Good, bad or indifferent it will come to pass eventually, no matter what, but take this clips advice, don't let it be an easy take over and quietly prepare for the worst, if the worst never happens we have lost nothing. http://www.winhs.org/media/media20070610.htm , Paula Warren <paulawarren1 wrote: > > Hi Listmates, > I was doing research and came across this item, thought you all might be > interested.
