    I do appreciate the invitation. Nothing bad may happen, but good things I want to happen might get missed if I’m too stoned. Maybe you can handle it, but I’ll pass (except maybe once a month or so)

    @HairLikeCottonCandy – again, i can sit here all day smoking it and nothing bad ever happens. its impossible to OD. whereas withi alcohol. WOW. no way could i stand up and go somewhere after consuming too much. feel free to come over, bring some with you and i’ll show u!

    (Or) God is Snoopy! What is your point? Of course you can have a broad enough definition of God to find God in anything. That is a little misleading however, since most believers in God are referring to the God of Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Krishna, etc. These are personal Gods with a personal message that in final analysis is destructive to scientific progress and civilization.

    You mean that you don’t like certain people’s idea of what God is, that is specific fables, ect. But there are other definition of God which are much harder to refute such as: God is the very laws of nature, or God is the spirit within us all, or God is everything, or you yourself are God.

    Speaking of science, I think you will find some spiritual experiences delving deeper into science if you keep an open mind :)

    table salt is not a toxin. And alcohol in moderation is good for heart health. Pot, like alcohol, is only medicinal in moderation. :)

  • MopDMTBARTL

    Keep the crap (toxins) out of u such as… fast food, processed foods, SUGAR, aspartame (artificial sweetners), fried foods (trans fats), flour, table salt, enriched anything, over the counter drugs (like tylenol), prescription drugs, alcohol, etc.

    think NATURE – eat WHOLE foods, not 2 much, mostly plants. Fruits, veggies, Nuts & seeds. Meat if eaten, moderation & should be clean. Grass feed beef, wild fish (not farmed), etc. Marijuana-Cannabis-Pot for MEDICINE.

    Hilarious — at the end of the video she says she doesn’t mention trans fat because food labels say “0 grams”…. but that’s only if it’s less than a half a gram per serving (and then of course the serving size can be manipulated small enough to be below this labeling requirement….)

    Just wow

    fruit is the plant kingdom’s gift to the animal kingdom. The expend a lot of their resources transforming sunlight into a form of energy that animals can use as a reward for spreading their seeds. The perfect food, and the food our ancestors evolved on. Make fruit at least 50% of your diet, better at least 70% and see the difference.

    I totally agree with Gary- I was raised on an omnivorous diet, and all it led me to was excess childhood weight, and a tendency to find myself over-tired. At the age of 12, I switched to a vegetarian diet, and 14 vegan, and actually find myself with more energy and enthusiasm than I had when I was a kid. (I’m now 24.) A side note- I eat a lot of grains, but good grains- quinoa, bulgar wheat, etc… but way more fruit than grains. Remember, tomatoes, avocados, count as fruit, too.

  • Gary1111001

    I used the term “nature/God” to cover the bases of what people believe – whatever created us. I’m not religious. I’ve been a science enthusiast since 1985.

    I was just saying, our bodies are most suited for a plant diet.

  • ohsnap31

    Gary, there is no god – pay attention to science. Don’t be so fucking gullible.

  • jp1989at

    god, whats god got to di with it.

  • Gary1111001

    Maybe you eat LIKE one. People are always repeating that mantra as if to convince themselves their current habits are OK. Mabye humans are in the process of becoming omnivores, but I’d rather not choose a path that’s not working out for humanity. I will choose the diet that nature/God originally intended for all animals before the ice age made it inconvenient.

  • furyofbongos

    FYI, Gary, humans are omnivores.

  • grudgrime

    The presentation is a little dull and basic

  • Gary1111001

    Notice that the food pyramid alwoays changes every few years. that’s cause it’s always wrong. And it still is. It’s influenced by food companies.

    The speaker is saying to eat 3 peices of fruit a day? …and 7 servings of grain?

    Humans aren’t natural grain(grass) eaters. We’re fruit eaters. I’ve eaten 10 pieces a day for the last 12 years. Too many cals? I LOST weight when I started this 50% fruitarian eating.
