THE MOST DANGEROUS DRUG
By PASTOR CLINTON R. KEATON

There are a host of very dangerous drugs in strong supply now. This is in no way an attempt to diminish their harm. Cigarettes are a most dangerous drug and causes many deaths each year.
Congress has recently been chastising the cigarette makers. The drug we want to talk about today though is hundreds of times more harmful than cigarettes.
One half of all men in prisons are there because of this drug. More than half of almost every harmful thing we could list today is caused by this drug. Breakup of homes, deaths on the highway, murders, robberies and you name it are caused by the drug of alcohol or better yet BOOZE!
Congress is very quiet about this particular drug. The reason is that Booze makers are the richest people in America. They pour millions of dollars into the coffers of congressional members to keep them in line and quiet about the harm their rotten product causes.
The sellers of booze today are our grocery stores and other stores of all kinds. Money is the reason! Albertsons, K-Mart, Walmart, and nearly every store in America today is in the booze business. We as Christians should raise cain with our legislators to make it illegal for these stores to sell beer, wine and any other kind of booze.
Where do many teenagers get their booze today? It is at the grocery store. How many people have been killed or jailed because stores sell booze. That mess should be illegal.
Booze sellers and makers should be faced with long prison sentences and maybe murder or manslaughter should be the charge faced by those who make or sell a product that kills young people. Prohibition is the only option.
