To the Editor of The Star:

Alcoholism, a disease?

If so:

• It is the only disease contracted by an act of will.
• It is the only disease that is habit forming.
• It is the only disease that comes in a bottle.
• It is the only disease causing hundreds of thousands of family disruptions.
• It is the only disease promoting crime and brutality.
• It is the only disease contributing to hundreds of thousands of automobile accidents.
• It is the only disease playing a major part in over 50% of the more than 50,000 annual highway deaths.
• It is the only disease which is sold by license.
• It is the only disease that is bought in grocery stores, drug stores and well-marked retail outlets.
• It is the only disease that is taxed by the government.
• It is the only disease that is necessary for medical doctors to fellowship one with another.
• It is the only disease in which medical support for the disease outweighs any effort to prevent it.
• It is the only disease advocated by almost all the advertising media.
• It is the only disease given as a Christmas gift.
• It is the only disease that has been “legalized” for Sunday by our legislators.
• It is the only disease our medico-governor has promised to ignore and let the people be plagued seven days a week instead of six.
• It is the only disease that is checked by government inspectors to make sure the poison is pure.

The Automobile Club of Michigan has reported that since 18-year-olds can buy the disease in their state, drinking drivers in the 18-20 age group increased their involvement in traffic accidents by 119%. They also had a 54% increase in fatal accidents, a 104% increase in injury accidents and a 135% increase in property damage accidents during 1972. If the highest executive in our state either doesn’t smell the problem or doesn’t have the backbone to try to protect Hoosiers from the Number 1 Problem disease on everybody’s polls, and he is a medical graduate, what help and hope is there for our state? —Helen M. Calvin, M. D., South Bend

America Has Turned Against God, and God Has Turned Against America!

Teens Drink One-Fifth of U.S. Alcohol!

The above picture speaks 1,000 words. The beer industry hypocritically tells teens not to drink alcohol until they are 21, while those same companies saturate American culture with booze, booze, booze! Consequently, underaged drinking is an epidemic problem in America!

“I've stood for more sneers and scoffs and insults and had my life threatened from one end of the land to the other by this God-forsaken gang of thugs and cutthroats because I have come out uncompromisingly against them.” —Billy Sunday

The Occult Roots of AA (Alcoholic's Anonymous)

Here's a Christian alternative to Alcoholics Anonymous...

Founded in 1948, Alcoholics Victorious support groups offer a safe environment where recovering people who recognize Jesus Christ as their "Higher Power" gather together and share their experience, strength and hope. AV meetings use both the 12 Steps and the Alcoholics Victorious Creed. 

There is Hope!
