Guest guest Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Also, at the store the other day, I saw that the General Mills is now selling dyed " Cheerios " in plastic packages for parents to take with them for their toddlers to snack on. Dry cereal is supposed to be a major source of acrylamides, which are suppsed to be seriously carcinogenic. I don't expect the dyes do the children any good, either. What would be left to buy in a grocery store if a group of naturopaths walked through it and eliminated all the significantly unhealthful foods from the shelves?

Home Depot did not have any powdered form and I was told that it was pulled from the shelves because of the phosphates that get into the water. I looked up tsp on the internet and found out you can find it in cheerios. Look at the box under ingredients. The FDA has approved it for eating and the article says it is used in most General Mills cereals including grape nuts. It's ok to eat but not wash walls with.

It is about a family that raises all their own food and eats only raw and believes that germs, all germs are good. Wonder what you thought of the program?

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 There is a program called " Wife Swap? " Gee, I love it how people just take it in stride as the TV networks destroy the fabric of this country. Do you not realize, , that it's not going to matter WHAT you eat once the moral fiber of this country has been trashed and flushed down the sewer? They're worried about GERMS when they're swapping wives???

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 I was just reading the other day about how it is possible to take a frog and place it in a shallow pan of cold water on the stove, then turn the heat on, and the frog will just sit there or swim around,as the water gets hotter and hotter, even though it could jump out at any time, till finally it dies, boiled to death. That is what is happening in this country---thousands or millions of s, sitting, watching stuff like " Wife Swap " without complaining, without thinking about its ramifications...and then one day, , or 's children, are going to ask, " What has happened to this country?! " I am a member of both the American Family Association and the Illinois Family Institute, and we DEFINITELY register strong complaints about subversive, errosive/corrosive TV programs like " Wife Swapping " and/or " Trading Spouses.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 You are overreacting. In the US serial polygamy is lawful. This is just a variation for entertainment. It is a non-issue. We need more swapping of everything -- cultures, languages, citizenships, jobs, and maybe even friends and lovers. Too many people are just too uptight.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Oh yes, . " I am over-reacting. " LOL So you think it's perfectly okay for one spouse from a couple to go to another couple's home and visa versa, and live there and sleep there " in the name of diversity and trading cultures. " You think there's nothing wrong with it at all, that it's " just good fun, " " good entertainment, " that it's perfectly safe and proper and even a good thing, and that no possible harm can come from it. " Just a variation for entertainment " is exactly what you are supposed to think while the TV networks move further and further out from what is good and normal and decent. I mentioned 's post to my wife, and she said many folks would say just what you are saying, . " Too uptight? " Not at all. It was " uptight " folks who built this country, and it's " downloose " (opposite of " uptight " )folks who are trying to tear it to smithereens. " Serial polygamy " may be lawful, but it comes accompanied by dis-ease and chaos. You and I appear to be at opposite ends of the scale of what constitutes normalcy, , and it appears to me that there are a great many people like you, and a great many people like me. Either there is going to be civil war in this country, or the " downloose " folks are going to have their way, and what used to be a great country will be flushed down the toilet.
