This guest column discusses the benefits of dowsing.
Prejudice of the driller toward the dowser may be more for economic reasons, but generally, prejudice toward dowsing usually is either one of two varieties - religious or scientific. Those with a religious bias tend to see dowsing as a tool of the devil. To those, I point to Matthew 7:16 in the Bible, "Ye shall know them by their fruits." And what could be more fruitful, as the driller knows, than providing good potable water to those in need? That's all that needs to be said about that.
