• ha ha ha! the internet is an interesting media…very open to interpretation…lol i’m just interested in what everybody does, whether it’s ‘good’ or ‘bad’...and i always trust that people would do research before engaging in such ‘edgy’ behavior! but, …

• open up, humanimal! if everyone were just like you the world would not be so colorful…;-) i don’t need shrooms, or anything that makes me feel differently. therefore, i don’t ever anticipate getting anything from it or growing through the experience…

• i feel like with any of that sort of thing, you get out of it what you truly feel inside. if you feel depressed or scared about your life, you’re probably going to freak out. but, the raw food diet tends to balance hormones and create an overall sen…

• aleta- i love the little wispies. i know they’re not ‘good’ in the eyes of my fellow stylists, but, they show me that new hair is growing. they make me really happy! lol being a stylist- and you may already know this if you had your hair professiona…

• oh, trust me! i’ve had to dredge a WIDE, WIDE river to find information on this topic in regards to the raw lifestyle…it’s almost as though people are too ashamed to say it! (which i find unlikely: in my experience, raw foodists are relatively peace…

• wow, thanks for the backup, queenfluff! lol ;-) what you said about the doctors on the SAD diet telling others what to do about their hair loss struck a chord with me…i just realized that i haven’t been to a doctor in nearly 7 years! it’s like we’re…

• okay. i just read something of this in the book ‘the raw life’ by paul nison. in this book, the author interviews people who have done the raw lifestyle for many years, asks them about pitfalls, their beliefs, blah blah blah. anyhow, under the inter…

• i think his remarks about the cons in drinking raw milk were in ‘rainbow green live food cuisine’. he said one of his subjects had ‘clean blood’ (meaning, very few or no bacteria/microorganisms, whatever, observed under a dark-field microscope) for …

• shane and katie- you are both absolutely right in my opinion, and it’s funny, because i was thinking about that last night…i sort of grew up thinking that people were omnivores, vegetarians, or vegans. and i’ve always said, since becoming more vegan…

• ron4540…that brings it back around to my question. how can one be such a fanatic about veganism when, clearly, there is no visible limit to the exact meaning behind the philosophy? it’s a very, very arbitrary word! incidentally, i will never, ever c…

• bluedolfin- thanks so much! i never noticed that before! you’re the bomb from new york to milan! debbietook- this thread has been a big learning experience for me in terms of veganism. i should not have said that about ‘true vegans’ (and i say that …

• yeah, it’s strange territory. and i DO talk to my dog about condoms…lol no, i have a dog and my whole family loves him. he’s an italian greyhound and he’s adorable. but, i won’t buy another dog after him. i’ve thought a lot about pets in the last ye…

• pianissima is probably right. i guess we shouldn’t take so much offense. but it does seem to me, again, at the risk of fanning the flame of this argument, that CERTAIN issues are not being responded to. i LOVE civil arguments where people can expand…

• exactly. if you like to nit-pick, then do so. but it’s a rare person that would say, “oh, god! my FRIDGE GASKETS were not produced in a way that was not harmful to animals! i have to hurry up and destroy it and get a new animal-friendly refrigerator…

• and also, to katie- thank you so much for that comment. you opened my eyes a lot! i always thought of people ‘boxing themselves in’...but if you think about it, that’s impossible. life has too many angles. too many points of view. if one tries to do…

• okay, i wasn’t going to reply to this, but i would feel bad if i didn’t… this has become a heated topic. people should come to this website as a makeshift ‘sanctuary’ from the majority of the world that looks at us as freakish radicals. i didn’t com…

• what i am about to state is meant to be taken constructively and not in anyway to offend anyone! i will start with that so as to avoid any confusion…;-) to lovespeter: your two comments did offend me mildly, i must admit. i hope it wasn’t meant to o…

• good point, ron4540…i think we are being really selfish when we train animals to do as we wish! and i, too, try to ‘tread lightly’, as you so eloquently put it. i know i wouldn’t like to be controlled, scolded for doing what is in my nature to do, a…

• yes, live life fearlessly. i see no harm in eating raw fish-or even raw meat-every now and then if you want to. i haven’t felt the need to…but if i wanted to, i certainly would! and if you caught it yourself, then hey! kudos to you! if nothing else,…

• oh, and i wear leather shoes and wool. pleather shoes suck. i’m sorry, but they do! i eat honey (although maybe not for long…) and i use beeswax. like, come on! anyone who tries to tell me i’m not vegan because i have a damn wool scarf will not even…

• honey is such a tough subject- if the bees would go to such lengths to protect it and we have to wear suits and/or gas the bees with cyanide or whatever in order to get it, it stands to reason that we should probably not be eating it. but, i’ve neve…

• i have to say that reading this made my heart swell. i think its magic- plain and simple- that people are so willing to offer help and suggestions to those battling afflictions such as these, and all without judgement. this, i believe, is god shinin…
