Drugs - Who Needs Them? - D Paul Graunke - March 1976

D Paul Graunke

The primary problem with drugs is not what they do, nor who uses them - but why people abuse them. Until we can answer the why, drug abuse among teenagers - and adults - is here to stay. Drugs are not the problem - but symptoms of other problems. In many respects, the current drug scene is a replay of the forbidden-fruit scene in the Garden of Eden. You know the story. "Did God say, 'You shall not eat of any tree of the garden'?" said the serpent (Satan) for openers. Every tree is all right to eat, replied Eve dutifully, except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which would be fatal. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
