Stop False Advertising

I FIND it very disturbing to see advertisement columns about spiritual healers. I don’t understand why certain newspapers let such senseless adverts be placed in their newspapers which promise to ‘apparently’ help people are suffering from: Bad luck, marriage problems, lost lovers and help them to win tenders and at gambling, get business protection, deal with problems at work, court cases...

They call themselves spiritual healers but with all these things I have mentioned above there’s nothing spiritual about them. What is there to heal if you were born with a private part with a size that you don’t want? Are the healers trying to change God’s work?
For instance if your lover decides to move on without you, why go to these ‘healers’ to bring him/her back? It’s like you are forcing the person against his will.
These are some of the things that are causing disturbance in our nation, but our newspapers are the ones advertising such things. It is just witchcraft and superstition.
These people call themselves doctors, but all they want is money in their pockets. But I put most of the blame on the newspapers that seem desperate to be paid for their advertising.
Please newspapers that deal with this issue, stop making small money from something that will lead to a wrong and dangerous outcome.
