“I was tested for heavy metals and have high lead. I went to an introspective/medical doctor. He was to do IV chelation therapy with a medicine to bind the heavy metals and to discreet them through the bowels and kidneys. He said it would help my immune system since I have a low immune system from cancer and chemo I had and many other issues. But I don't know if it is okay to do through the Catholic Church teachings and I went on WebMD and it said it is acceptable but it can also take out many minerals that your body needs like calcium and magnesium etc.”

My sister has run the mill of New age stuff. She was baptized and confirmed in the Catholic faith, but was rebaptized into a Siddha yoga group. She spent some time in an ashram in NY state. I visited her there once, and believe I was hurt spiritually by that visit for a long time. As the big sister, I was trying to rescue her. I have since accepted Jesus as my own personal Lord and Savior. Praise God!

I am writing to inquire about the Maximum Ride book series, our son brought these home, and is reading one for a book assignment for his parochial school. He has read the book School is Out Forever, and brought home the book, The Final Warning. . . .

”Back in the mid 90's, I purchased a book/tape program for working with pets called "The Tellington Touch" or T-touch. I thought it was a form of massage and I used it to tame my cat. The materials for the program do not mention energy, are mostly filled with testimonials, but do say that the method activates unused neural pathways in the brain. The creator of the program, Linda Tellington-Jones, trained with physicist Dr. Feldenkrais in the 70's and used his method to develop her own. There are now T-touch practitioners worldwide, especially working with horses. Is T-touch New Age? And if so, what does that mean for me and my cat?”
