CICO is overrated in my opinion

    My family is pretty literal- I grew up being taught the earth was young- and created in 7 literal days.

    Didn't really realize I grew up in a "literalist" family. Look at that.

    I think it's an interesting topic and have had long and mutually respectfully discussions with literalists about it (I'm Catholic and religious). That said, I don't think it's something that can be productively discussed here (and is almost certainly going to be seen by TPTB as against the rules, I'd bet).

    No doubt. Although we've gone almost 24 hours now.

    Perhaps by taking such a long/wide road and tangent to get here we've shed the people unable to have a civil/productive discussion.

    That being said, there are other fora where such a conversation could be held. Perhaps a group, if there's interest. Would need to weed out against trolls and derailers.

    Weird experience - opens thread on CICO, reads first few pages, skips to end - somehow we are now on how literally we take the bible :o:o:o .

    I did the same thing...

    I don't think this thread is turning out quite the way OP hoped :D

    Not sure what to make of all the wooing. I mean I get that this is a relatively controversial subject, but nobody in the "believer" camp has done any more than present opinion and perspective as opinion and perspective.

    I'm still trying to figure out what "woo" means. Like I get the point its' supposed to mean like "bro science" or "woo- gwenth paltrow diets"- But its honestly gets applied in the strangest way- I just sort of ignore it honestly.

    I can talk to you about protein biosynthesis if you want... Then again, not sure I understood most of what I've just read. Was too busy shaking my head at the oddest train wrecks going on. It's kinda hard to read (and take useful notes) when you're shaking your head.

    Oh and, I didn't woo your answer to my Obi-Wan... I thought it was funny :tongue:

    Come join us in the Food section. Very sensible discussion about the "best" diet happening over there..........You might need to read really really fast though.

    Oh and don't shake your head while you're trying to speed read... it'll slow you down :wink:

    damnit- but I'll jump over- I'm definitely sort of dragging booty here and not in the good way- I just had my last snack- and there is giant bag of doritos that I'm avoiding.

    I'll pop over- I saw it and passed by it like ten times- I missed the fact it was gaining speed.

    I move that we create a debate/discussion group that's aggressively moderated against disrespectful folks, but no holds barred regarding ethical/theological belief/opinion.

    I'm down. Although I freely admit- it's hard to be respectful sometimes. The whole imaginary friend thing comes out and people get offended. But I can try. It would be more fun than doing nothing.

    Quick notes...

    OP wants a diet to prevent all possible disease and lose weight....

    Sort of goes to plan (well.it is friday) then ADDED SUGARZ = LOW FAT CONSPIRACY = ALL FRUIT IS POISON

    Then bizarrely special k being 33% sugar and eating 128lbs of added sugar each a year ....being thrown about every other post....

    Most excellent cliff notes there!
