PRI, Thanks for Educating Students
Dear Steven,
Thank you for all the work you do with the PRI. I have used information from your brochures in my high school biology classroom.
The students are receptive to it although they are most astounded to hear that the world’s population will never again double (if current trends continue).
But unfortunately, the vast majority of students do not see info from PRI and so the population myth is perpetuated by most biology textbooks. Add to that the “contraceptive mentality” which is preached from public high school health curricula and one can see how misinformation in schools favors the culture of death, Until the situation is corrected, the dignity of the human person will continue to be compromised in high school classrooms across America.

Thanks to PRI
Dear Steve,
I called the other day just to let you know how grateful I am for your book on Chi An, Well, I just finished it and am all the more grateful for the hard lessons provided by it. I wish every person could read it. It really should be heavily publicized.
Your work is most important and I think we should have many people like you both in the academic institutions as well as working on legislation, It seems like you would be an ideal “group leader” for the population issues, much like the professor for a good physics group. And GOD-willing your “students” could themselves become group leaders and multiply your work exponentially!
Well, thanks again and GOD bless you all.
In JESUS through MARY,

China Calendar
Dear Steve:
I am enclosing an advance complimentary copy of the 2004 “Intercessors for China” prayer calendar and want you to know I find the PRI material very helpful in our research.
Each Monday we feature a prayer item on the needs of families. I think you would be interested to know that aspect of “family planning” are featured on the following dates: January 6, January 27, February 17, March 2, 9, 16, April 6, May 11, June 1, June 29 (Mother ‘s Ordeal author), July 13, August 3, 24, October 19, November 9, December 14. A number of our Thursday prayer requests for government officials feature those in the family planning bureaucracy.
We are in our eighth year of doing the “Intercessors for China” prayer calendars, and we are trusting that the “Intercessors for China” prayer calendars will be one of the means used by God to mobilize prayer for His glory.
May the Lord continue to bless you and your ministry.
Yours for the King,

AIDS in Africa
Dear Mr. Mosher,
I wish to offer my congratulations for your splendid paper on the epidemiology of Africa AIDS. I have had an interest in this subject for many years and have never before seen an explanation for the high rate of heterosexual AIDS in Africa.
The very low rate of non-drug using prostitutes in the West shows that the wall of the vagina is a barrier to the blood stream. The wall of the rectum is an avenue to the blood stream. Homosexuals are in great numbers in the public health and politics of AIDS and have always sought to make it “everyone’s disease.”
I just came across the May-June Review and would like the complete article.
Yours Sincerely,
Michael Brendan Flanagan, M.D.

Abortion Incomprehensible
Dear Mr. Mosher:
Thank you for all you and the staff at PRI have done to promote the Culture of Life, I know that many of the accomplishments in this respect are due to the hard-fought battles waged on a daily basis.
As a psychologist, I often find it difficult to understand how supposedly rational individuals could believe that the taking of another human life could be in anyone’s best interest. In particular, I find it hard to understand how physicians who are trained to save lives could be formed in such a manner that they can partially deliver a full-term infant, kill him or her, and rationalize that behavior. Much prayer is needed in order to convert the hearts of many in this nation.
Again, thank you for your part in the accomplishments made at the legislative level and in the hearts of individuals. God Bless.
