My argument is that Price's healthy primitives showed us that grains >*per se* are not evil.

What is here and now is not the snapshot in time he took back then. We are all so heterogeneous compared to his natives as well, which confounds things even further. If grains, cigarettes, and even water are altered intentionally in America, what then? Are we being bred for demise intentionally?

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 The result is that most people in the developed world end up on several prescription drugs by middle age and get their life's savings spent on cancer treatment or other catastrophic illness expenses. And the powers that be save oodles on retirement payments. Oh, and the younger folks coming up have no memory of how things used to be different. Their only memory is of how eating animal fat has been taxed out of existence and everyone they know has to pay a princely sum to fertility clinics in order to conceive and have a family--and half their children either have Asperger's or ADD or die early from childhood cancer treatment. And everyone's attention span is so short that they have trouble remembering back to last Wednesday, much less 70 years ago. , please stop talking about my neighbors in that tone of voice ! ;-) Rebekah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
