Did I get lost and wind up on a religious forum somehow?
3 things to not talk about around the lunch table. Politics, religion and diets.

Not only that but I’ve noticed that this poster never engages in discussion with people who wish to discuss/debate the points he or she is attempting to make. Just drops the assertions in a single post and doesn’t seem to return to the thread. I was hopeful that since this is a post and not just a comment that this time may be different because I too am interested to learn why some keto followers feel the need to assign magical benefits to the diet in order to convince others to try - without just posting facts and saying “it can be as good as any other diet if a person enjoys it and can stick with it, but it is not superior and/or necessary to achieve goals”.
I loved the irony of the OP starting a thread in the debate section3 -

Not only did the OP start a thread in the debate section, he then complained because people were actually debating his ideas... go figure.4 -
Actually the thread was started in the main general forum area and then it got moved here, I'm assuming by a mod?

Yes, because we felt it was more of a debate type topic. Although given people are struggling to be respectful and not turn this into a personal attack, we are closing the discussion.3
