I was talking about this with a friend of mine who has a couple of 11 year old (twins) just the other day.
When he and I were growing up EVERYONE ate peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for lunch and NO ONE had peanut allergies.

Christians warn us about the anti-christ for 2,000 years, and when he shows up, they buy a bible from him.

I agree. Also when we were kids, we also played in the dirt, got bumps and bruises, rode bikes without a helmet, eat peanut butter sandwiches, etc. Today, most mothers don't even let their kids play in the dirt, and everything must be wiped off with a disinfectant. So guess what happens? You immune system never gets exercised.FlyingPenguin wrote:I was talking about this with a friend of mine who has a couple of 11 year old (twins) just the other day.
