Linny:
Absolutely agree with you Ninny on the soy. Soy products that most use are all over processed foods. Little girls should NEVER eat them either. And I heard from an excellent source ;) that a common denominator for children with tumors and cancers was being on soy formula. :'(
And CottonPicker, I see this as I see most things in life these days. We tend to take very seriously the Scripture regarding not conforming to this world but being transformed by the renewing of our minds. You are right, most are not interested. But you are not alone in your
non-conformity.
We feel blessed to have been shown the truths of God's amazing love for us through Ray and others and we feel blessed to not fear disease anymore.

thanks again for all the help :D. Many of you have pointed out that it is not what goes into a body that makes one unclean but what comes out. This is what the Lord tells us so it is true.
But if the cruelty has been brought to my attention, and it has become an offense to me, am I in sin if I overlook that offense for the pleasure of my stomach?
"All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offense." from Romans 14.

Hi again, Casey. I don't see any 'sin' here (in Romans 14) directly concerning eating or not eating. I see 'sin' in "...And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin." A concience or intentional choice/belief to refrain from meat is described as 'weak'. So it's a matter, since all things are clean, of weaker or stronger, more or less mature. And neither are to judge the other over things which are not sin. I think that's the point.
So the short version again is...you can not eat whatever you do not want. ;) Nobody here is going to condemn you for such a tender-hearted choice. :) I'll just be careful either preparing or choosing to invite you on my next picnic. ;D

Haha good one Dave, did you ever see the episode of mythbusters where they test that theory? Here is an excerpt from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MythBusters_%282005_season%29#Five-second_Rule
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Myth statement
The "Five-second rule" is valid when it comes to food dropped on the floor.
Status
Busted
Notes
This myth yielded a varied number of results, but in the definitive test where the only variable was time, the myth was definitively busted. There was no real difference in the number of bacteria collected from 2 seconds exposure as there was from 6 seconds exposure.

I thought that was pretty interesting, considering my previous fear of germs.

okay vegan is not that good for you unless you go raw. this support your minerals and vitamins which can be cooked out of your foods also the life of the food is in the raw enzymes. which greatly aids in digestion absorption cellular a few foods should be cooked slowly in an oven like squash but raw fooder would debate that its a science and after going the whole gamete i found that i prefer raw food there are some wonderful receipts on you tube but its hard to do when you are not in a supportive setting. my body mind function best and it makes you look prettier too peggy

Hi Peggy,
I can see the benefits of raw foods, as raw foods are 'living' food and better for you. Cooked food is devoid of enzymes, which the body needs in the digestion and absorption of food. So we should make sure we get a daily helping of living (raw) foods, like crisp colorful salads and fresh ripe fruits or veggies and their juices. Ones that you grow yourself or purchased at a farmers market (organic) are much fresher and better for you.
There are so many food diets out there that people claim will lead to the greatest health benefits, I think we need to try to keep things in moderation. Variety seems a good way to go, not too much of any one type, keeping to the fresh and the less processed the better.
mercy, peace and love
Kat
