Ok...if we are going to bash Christians instead of concentrating on
colloidal silver, I will be leaving the list.  Can we get back on topic
please? While I will freely stand and defend my faith, I will not bash my
head against a stone wall in a hostile environment...for I don't feel it is
appropriate do so here in this forum.
   I have a desire to use the God-given gift that silver has inherent to
it...and I want to learn more about it.
   Can we get back on topic, please? * smile *
