Actually,
Do whatever you wish to do. I'm just going to leave this site. I didn't mean to get so many people attacking me on here. I would appreciate it if you would take the info down, but I think I'm finished participating here as it's way too hostile and I feel unwelcome to even discuss my...
That was on a public website, I knew the mother, I also never directly posted anyone's personal information or address. If I just linked to her site, like this:
http://www.fruitgod.com/fruitarianbabie.html
There would have been no issue whatsoever. It's just a link. It's a public website.

LOL. Yeah I'm "promoting" my website. Which has no ads on it, whatsoever, I pay out of my own pocket for it, there are no more than maybe 20 or so unique users at any given day who visit it, and I sell nothing on this site, I do not have any "sponsors" or accept donations, whatsoever.
I in no...
Indeed, when I was still eating meat I could taste a difference without question. But beyond that is the fact that all of these chemical residues tend to not really be an issue with plants as much as they are with animal foods and that is because animals have a whole lot of fat which is where...
I think GMO foods are interesting, but, I think there is not enough testing, there are some people who under no circumstances would want to eat GMO foods and the general trend that is as follows:
GMO foods are sold as a means to feed the world and increase crops.
As I stated above, feeding the...
Aught3,
I think I understand you position. I do think that the notion that organic food cannot be sustainable or feed the world is erroneous and I'll tell you why.
Number one I do see a much larger issue with distribution of food than anything. We can produce all the food we want, for instance...
Excellent. I agree. And many other people agree with the work of Acharya S for instance Pat Condell, Bill Maher, Christopher Hitchens, etc.
If you think part 2 and 3 were flawed that's fine, but there's lots of evidence to support both part 2 and 3. As far as part 3, have you ever seen the...
But Aught3,
If you read me correctly, I said that indeed when we compare "conventional" produce to "USDA organic" you will find little difference.
But if you measure homegrown or TRULY organic produce vs conventional (or USDA organic for that matter), there will be a difference. Unfortunately...
The problem here is that just referring to food as "organic" means very little today. The organic standard has been degraded so much so that conventional farming only has to change a few things in order to be considered "organic".
But if we talk about truly organic, meaning, grown without use...
Improbable,
Once again you are trying to instigate rather than to respond.
CVBrassil seems to not agree with me on many counts, and I appreciate his input and take it into consideration because he made reasonable points with logic, and he was calm and sensible about it.
I don't believe that...
CVBrassil,
You are the first person on this site that truly am gaining some respect for. You're right, I should not have assumed you believed Jesus existed, or mixed up Jesus existing with Jesus being supernatural. Indeed.
The true problem here is that first of all there are no primary sources...
Well, the thing is,
You need to have a way of blocking off others from entering. Then, you have to have the infrastructure. This costs massive money in the current system. It would be hard to mimic a RBE with 150 people. Also, because everything would be free basically, this kind of system...
I agree. Unfortunately we CAN do all these things. None of the technologies needed are not already present. The current system is based on capitalism, on making profit. Not on producing results, and certainly not on taking into considerations all the "externalities" of production.
What needs...
