Letters to the Fcitor ., THE FOLLY OF DRUGS Do the adult).citizens of this city and surrounding communities realize the tragic problem that is now in their midst? I know. that they are not accepting the fact that their own young people may very well be, and may I add a lot of them are. smoking marijuana or using LSD! Even if they did, there are very few who would sit down with their young pe,ople and sincerely try to help them, They in turn would either refuse to believe the fact, or throw them.out on the street, witl out a MiM-6: fqr wearing long hair and associating- with "hippies." It's a common fact that nobody, is `perfect. Can the parents really , criticize and condemn? As the paraphrased Gospels interpret the Bible, St, Luke 6:41,42. 41. "And why quibble about the speck in someone else's eve nus little fault — when a board is in your own." 42. "How can you think of saying to him, "Brother, let me help you get rid of the speck in your eye" when you can't, see past the board in your's. Hypocrite! First get rid of the board frryours, and then perhaps you can see well enough to deal with his speck with Love and Understanding." These young people need Help, Love and • •Christian understanding, not jail and disciplined hatred! They are not hardened criminals. Is the answer really a lengthy prison .term and a criminal record for experimenting with a drug not as. harmful as alcohol? 'All they are really doing is experimenting. Someone must help them. Someone with love and understanding - not a spirit of condemnation. - Someone who has been in drugs and knows what they feel, who knows what it is to be "high" and on the "ultimate .trip." ' But also. someone who has 'found Jesus Christ and has been born again. These young people need Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Saviour as did I. I ,found Jesus Christ and by Omitting my guilt, I accepted nine as my personal. Lord. and Saviour. f 'Mow what these young people are going through, for I ,myself lived as a "hippie" and •gym coming up for trial in Owen Sound for trafficking in narcotics. I was sure at one time "long hair and drugs" were the "in' thing," But now I have found God. and I know better. As the -Bible quotes in 1 Corinthians 2:14 "Doth not even nature itself teach you, that if a man have long hair, it is a shame untq him?" Young people think upon these words and then . decide if you're really on the • right track! I wasn't. Thank you. Thomas A. Pollock, • 'Kincardine.
