Colborn, Dumanoski, and Myers  Our Stolen Future - Are We Threatening Our Fertility, Intelligence, and Survival?  A Scientific Detective Story  www.penguinputnam.com  Book is highly endorsed by Al Gore who acclaims it to be a sequel to Rachel Carson's Silent Spring. Poisons, synthetic hormones, and excess hormones (especially estrogens) are stored in plant and body fat.  They can contribute to birth defects, especially as they are carried down the food chain and/or are compounded (passed on) generation after generation, rather than being excreted daily or lost at death.

Appel, Rabbi Yehuda     Aish HaTorah, Cleveland, Ohio, USA    http://www.aish.com/tp/b/app/48961061.html
"Many years prior, his daughter had been born with a serious heart defect. After being told at the hospital that she didn't have long to live, he wandered the streets of Jerusalem in a daze. Finally, he came across an old Yemenite man and poured out his heart to him. The Yemenite advised him to buy Mezuzot and put them on his doorposts immediately.  Desperate for anything that could help his daughter, he ran to a religious neighborhood, asked where the nearest scribe lived, and bought several Mezuzot. After putting them up, he returned to the hospital where he was greeted with great news. Lo and behold, a miracle had occurred: His daughter's heart defect had disappeared!"
Copeland, Kenneth    John G Lake      In chapter 44 Adventures in Religion Lake shares the miracle healing of a 5 year old boy whose head was deformed at birth, resulting in slobbering, paralysis, dumbness, walking on his ankles, and inability to go to school.  This particular chapter addresses some of the issues why miracles seldom happen.  www.kcm.org
