Good morning, I started a new private group for any that might be interested. I know many members will be clicking woo on this concept but Ive never been one to worry much about what others think. Its very much in construction phase I keep it updated as time permits.

http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/123417-christian-view-on-eating

Description
A wholesome place where you dont have to be attacked by people demanding proof regarding anything contradicting mainstream FDA regulations, lobbyists, etc. Here we believe the Lord Almighty created food perfectly and man has since fouled it up with hybird versions of wheat, processed foods, chemicals, roundup sprays, pasteurization, etc.

    You're doing the right thing by starting a private group. Discussing religious/political topics in the main forums is against the rules. I hope you find like-minded people to join you. Best of luck! As for me, I like some modern day foods better (corn and bananas come to mind), so i'll stick to that.

    I attended an SDA college. Lived in an SDA town. I appreciate the sentiment, but I've had my fill of religious "health message" no matter how well-intentioned.

    I agree that additives aren't a good thing, some processing is, but we would have to raise our own livestock and grow our own food in a virtual utopia to prevent cross contamination and let's face it, that isn't going to happen. I can't keep a dandelion in my front lawn alive much less an entire garden.. And if you really want original, reread that verse posted.. We were meant to eat plants, not animals.. We weren't given permission to eat meat until Noah's time in Genesis 9:1-5. So this idea of Keto being the "natural state" is fouled.. From a Christian perspective. From an atheist's perspective it would make more sense.

    Besides, I don't know how to make cheesecake without borrowing mans processed helpers like cream cheese. I'm not Amish..

    The group I believe is intended to be private. I imagine the organizers will privately invite potentially like minded individuals based on their contributions to threads like these.

    Well, I am definitely a Christian and I definitely don't share your views, but they're doing something for you so good luck. I just don't see blatantly pushing them on the rest of the eating world.
