Carnivore diet and stone age stuff

[baro-san]

...
What about you?

For long time I didn't think about such things, but at some point I felt the need to look for answers to questions like those I asked you earlier. Eventually, and iteratively, I got answers in which I have a high degree of, but not absolute, confidence.

I believe we're here to practice, and getting better at, being creators, each one of us being the creator of their own reality. On our essences' evolution path, we are here to learn to master our emotions: we mostly succeeded in mastering our instincts, we're dominated by our emotions, we just began to discover our intellect, and we are just scratching the surface of our intuition.

As an individual, my life lesson seems to be "humility", to balance accumulated karma (thought forms).

Hi Ritter,

You are not the only one on the board who anticipates something catastrophic up ahead. Many have had inklings or insights into future lives where everything is very different, thought the reasons given often seem vague. (There is a thread on the "future" around here somewhere). Typically, there is a sense that there has been some type of great earth change and the population is much smaller, and possibly less high-tech, though the future life situations do not seem to indicate a return to primitive conditions. However, with a little bit of searching on the internet, you can also find vastly different scenarios. As the future is not fixed IMO (except to the extent that the almighty determines that certain events will take place and also bends all things that we purpose or do towards "His" ultimate goals) I can see how there could be a whole variety of different scenarios with different likelihoods of actually working out. I.e., many paths that will ultimately come to the same destination in the end though they may follow different routes to do so. One way or the other, almost all prognostications seem to involve some type of great change over the next 60-80 years that radically reduces the population. Likewise, these changes seem to involve great changes in the way life is lived in the developed world--away from the extreme high-tech, consumerist and commercialized urban model that most seem to assume. If you have more on this, please let us know. I know you expect a break-down in terms of the current economic system based on petroleum, but anything more specific you have received via esoteric as well as exoteric means would be welcomed.

On the personal front, I congratulate you in terms of your overall sense of who you are, where you are going, and what it all means. And, I really mean that. As you can tell, this is a pretty "angsty" place. I don't really have a problem with that, as I am also struggling with a variety of things myself--inside and outside, past as well as present. However, it is nice to come across people that are more at peace with the whole thing. You are not the only one, but most of us are not nearly as well-developed either in our conception of the foregoing and our sense of peace about the foregoing. There are certain things you have said that resonate very strongly with me. Others, not so much. But, that problem may be on my side rather than yours.

Cordially,
S&S

PS--For myself, I have a very strong sense that I need to do my duty to all and sundry in my present context, which is hard enough! However, I remain haunted not only by my failures in doing so, but by the sense that there was something else I am supposed to do (or have "forgotten"). I think I may know what it is, but . . .

 

[SeaAndSky]

On a lighter note--there was recently a news article in the U.S. about disappointed vegans threatening to BBQ a dog in the street to try to shock meat eaters into realizing the cruelty of eating animals and give up eating meat. I think the comment on the matter I read in an editorial today is apropos:

"Vegans, who are always left out of neighborhood weenie roasts, threaten to “barbecue a dog in the street to shock people into ditching meat,” forgetting that such an atrocity would more likely shock people into barbecuing a vegan."

S&S

PS--I have known some mighty nice vegans, and people are entitled to eat what they want to, but radicals in almost every area do tend to say the stupidest things!

A catastrophic event for some is peace and prosperity for others.. It all depends upon who you are and what you do.. To believe we will all be negatively effected by any future events is wrong
BB my spiritual self is very different to what is talked about on this forum ..especially when it comes to wars and warrior deaths.. As I have said before I have no need to talk about them in any detail
but he is different...
BB loves battles more so than the general term of "wars"..Wars are about many different things mostly created by the elite class ... On the other hand wars that involve his gods are very different for him..These are not wars to him.. they involve who he is .. and he will kill everyone he can get his hands on and destroy everything there is that stands against his gods..
If this is a future event then it will not be a catastrophic event in any ways.. That's not how it will be.. it will be a return to how it should have always been... we are the good guys

Your spiritual self in third person? I hope this will not come across as demeaning or insulting. I write this genuinely to try and help. Seen this before.

Is the problem here a cognitive dissonance, holding within one's mind conflicting world-views and ideas, rather than having several personalities?

This seems to me like when people name their penises or such as to dissociate it from themselves, the whole. I do not mean that as an insult, it is just a common thing that people do and it is perhaps done for similar reasons.

The modern world teaches us that:
-Violence is always bad
-There is no glory
-Stupid ball sports for idiots have replaced battle
-People are 'equal'
-Castes which elevate violent and virtuous men are bad
-Men are bad, period
-Weakness is lauded
-Moral relativism and decadence is the norm
-Materialism is the religion

And so on. I can see how there is trouble to truly embrace one's true nature and to show a different face to the world. An acceptable face replete with popularly held beliefs. At the same time, the true self lives in the back of one's mind.

If one embraces and firmly connects oneself to the soul and does away with the modern trash beliefs, one is free. Not necessarily comfortable or part of 'polite society' anymore, but what does that matter. Polite society these days would probably have a lot in common with the denizens pf Sodom and Gomorrah. And I believe also that their end will not be entirely unlike those of the aforementioned, either.

Be you entirely. Don't dissociate from yourself.
Do not feel shame for who you are.
It is not wrong to be a warrior, it is the world that is sick.

Hi Ritter... thanks for your comments.. I have always talked about BB in the third party.. That is how it works for me..Physical entities are just that also.. they all die never to return but our spiritual selves never die they go on and on.. I see it as some sort of problem for those who in this life who feel connected to a physical entity that is long dead and gone and will never return that they have no physical connections to whatsoever .. I'm not sure if its a physical problem of the current physical entity or real problems with there spiritual selves.. but these unrealistic connections to another physical entity our spiritual selves have occupied makes no sense to me.. Some even believe they look like other physical entities there spiritual selves has occupied.. that is really out there and makes no sense to me.. John Tat will die and will never return leaving BB to go on and on.. Your are right John Tat does have some problems coping with who he is.. his spiritual self really is.. but that is not why I always refer to him in the third party I refer to him in the third party because as I said John Tat will die and never return.. We are separate but connected if that makes any sense This whole reincarnation thing in my opinion is based on beliefs of long ago.. that came from the imaginations of man and have no or little resemblance to how it really is.. but have been handed down generation after generation and for reasons to themselves have turned into some sort of truth... false truths.. BB my spiritual self is a warrior.. I'm not ashamed of that.. but as I said John Tat the current physical entity BB is occupying is not comfortable with some of the memories.. As I have said many times.. I only have memories.. memories of my spiritual self and have no clue who the physical entities were he has occupied That in my opinion is how it should be They are all BB's memories they are not the memories of the dead physical entities he has occupied. They are my memories because I'm BB.. that is who I really am.. Not John Tat or any other physical entity I have occupied.. That is why John Tat always refers to himself in the third party also... John Tat is not BB anymore than Ritter is your spiritual self.. I was interested when you said Ritter will die this will be his last time...Of course it will be .. this physical life is Ritters first and last time .. next time there will be another That is unless you are both spiritual and physical as one entity which you are not ..If you were both you would be a freak and genius with unlimited knowledge and abilities

Hi Ritter,

John's views and situation are very unique and I can guarantee that you will go through a lot of wasted inquiries in order to bring out facts that have been coming out slowly over years of time. I am planning to do a fairly brief summary of what has been revealed over a period of years and post it on John's thread, which is dedicated to his slowly recovered memories of many, many lifetimes in Ancient Egypt. Hopefully, I will have this done sometime later today.

What I will be summarizing definitely relates to what we are discussing at the moment. The extent to which it may relate is, actually, part of what I was interested in determining via my prior questions to you.

Cordially,
S&S

PS--I agree with your list of craziness in the modern world with one exception. I can't totally go with your comment on people being "equal". I agree that people are not "equal" in all respects--we would have to be identical for that to be true. However, I do agree with the original idea that all are entitled to equal treatment under law notwithstanding inherited titles, wealth, social status, race, religion, etc. I don't have time at the moment to list the various crazy deformities of this simple idea that have been spawned over the last 100 years. So, I'll just leave it at that.

Edit: Here is the thread page where I have written my summary at #733:

My neighbours swear by it they buy it all the time

I remember chickens in the 60's up to the c90's. During the 60's in particular, one chicken would do a Sunday roast for a family of four, with enough over for a dinner of chicken with mash, cheese and pickle on a Monday. Nowadays, chickens aren't large enough for a Sunday Roast for more than two and maybe a toddler. More like large wood pigeons, when taking into account that they are now plumped up by injecting gunge. They had natural flavour, too. The same for all commonly available meats today.

Best wishes,

Btw, you may know already that Morrisons are the only supermarket here to sell non-halal/kosher on their fresh meat counter, and have their own farms. All the other chains, even the co-op apparently, sell unlabelled halal/kosher as are many farms and slaughter houses are now. Of course even British slaughter methods aren't always acceptably humane, but imo the other methods are even worse. Also I and many other folk don't want to eat food that has been prayed over or dedicated to a deity.
I don't know about you but I find it prejudice to not label, and for the other supermarkets to not label, nor to give a choice by carrying a range that isn't ritually slaughtered in a 'religious' way.

I often let folk know. Some don't care (my husband for instance) but i've found a lot do care enormously and switch away from other supermarket chains once they know.

I tried being veggie three times during my life but became ill and weak each time. I didn't see the point of having the Vit B jabs I was told would help, as apparently the constituents are animal derived anyway. Tried eating fish only, then fish and chicken, and still wasn't as strong and healthy as I would have been so regretfully went back to red meat.

Best wishes,

Hi Ritter,

Interesting. I had my best weight loss doing something a bit Adkinesque some time back. It is called the Blood Type Diet by Peter D'Adamo. The author backs up his premise that diet should be tuned to blood type by throwing in some evolutionary type arguments/history related to the supposed origin of different blood types (garnering a pseudo-science label from some), but aside from this caveat, I had no problem with it and had good results. Here is a quick summary:

Type O blood: A high-protein diet heavy on lean meat, poultry, fish, and vegetables, and light on grains, beans, and dairy. D'Adamo also recommends various supplements to help with tummy troubles and other issues he says people with type O tend to have.

Type A blood: A meat-free diet based on fruits and vegetables, beans and legumes, and whole grains -- ideally, organic and fresh, because D'Adamo says people with type A blood have a sensitive immune system.

Type B blood: Avoid corn, wheat, buckwheat, lentils, tomatoes, peanuts, and sesame seeds. Chicken is also problematic, D'Adamo says. He encourages eating green vegetables, eggs, certain meats, and low-fat dairy.

Type AB blood: Foods to focus on include tofu, seafood, dairy, and green vegetables. He says people with type AB blood tend to have low stomachacid. Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and smoked or cured meats.

My wife is AB and I am O, she loved the Macrobiotic diet that was in vogue many years ago (I hated it). She can go vegetarian or light on meat if need by, I have got to have animal protein. Anyhow, type O is supposedly the oldest blood type (if I am remembering correctly) and does best on hunter/gatherer foods. So, heavy on meat/fish/eggs, etc. plus veggies and fruits. Light on items that were the result of the development of agriculture and the domestication of cows, etc. such as beans, grains and dairy. So, plenty of animal protein, veggies and fruits and avoid the rest. Hmmm. Maybe I need to do this again. I need to lose about 30 lbs.

Cordially,
S&S

PS--My initial reservation about the Carnivore diet is that you better be prepared for constipation unless you can slip in some roughage somehow.

PPS--Just for curiosity sake, I'd be interested to hear from people who have different blood types in terms of their success (or lack thereof) in terms of vegetarianism, etc.

None of us in my family have ever tried such a diet, but it makes sense. There are races who are intolerant of animal milk, and that could be to do with blood type as well as metabolism of different peoples. Yeah, makes sense.

Best wishes,

Angie

Had a bit of a crash and had a hard time getting up out of bed earlier. Unusual. Willed myself to do so after a half hour of headache. Some coffee and a steak, and things are fine again. Think I ate too little yesterday. Did not eat in the evening.

On another note, I am literally feeling little aches and pains going away. Expect i'll be good as new in a few weeks of this. I was never incapacitated or handicapped, just felt a bit worn. Skin quality has notably increased. It looks smoother and matte.

Although that could be because I just made a superb batch of organic hempseed beard oil with a high concentration of essential oils. And yeah, I am a bit of a DIY hipster. Although, the argument against it being *just* the oil is that skin seems to be improving all over. And I just use the oil to feed/tame my footlong beard.

Speaking of which. I'll post the recipe, since it was a particularly good batch. Somewhat pricey and large, but hey.

Beard oil recipe "hippie mountain monastery"

1 liter (2 pints, basically) organic hempseed oil.
30 ml grapeseed oil
30 ml active abyssinian seed oil
15 ml castor oil

Essential oils:
10 ml sandalwood essential oil
10 ml lemon essential oil
10 ml geranium essential oil
10 ml frankincense essential oil
10 ml clary sage essential oil

Mix in glass container using some form of clean utensil. Divvy up into glass bottles of appropriate size, like 30 or 60 ml.

I was after the effects of the oils on skin and hair, not particularly the smells. But it is rather pleasant. Kind of like a monastery herb garden, with some leather workshop thrown in. Set me back 140$ or thereabout to buy the ingredients, but I sell it at cost to friends and acquaintances IRL. So I won't have to go through over a liter of the stuff before it goes bad. I use about 30 ml/month. This is not an ad, btw. Just some DIY stuff. One of a thousand hobbies. Can't be bothered to send anything for any amount of money. I charge anything at all because it would get too pricey to buy ingredients experiment otherwise.

Caution! Do beware that pregnant women should not use clary sage at all, though. It may induce contractions. Always read up on any essential oil before use. Like how men should stay the hell away from lavender.

Haahaha so there's a reason all the men in my family dislike the aroma of lavender when I use it in a diffuser! My hubby dislikes it so much I ended up throwing away almost a full perfume bottle of lavender. They dislike parma violets and various other that I like, too. Lol.

Best wishes,

Hi Sea..i really do not want to start an argument. I am a peace-maker....I just don't understand how people can kill a live being for meat when there are so many other protein sources available. I will never understand why humans are not disciplined. And i will leave with this quoted material

"Ancient Greek philosophers made their arguments based on the moral status of animals themselves. Greek mathematician and philosopher Pythagoras made the case against eating animals on grounds of their having souls like humans.

Philosopher Plato, in Book 2 of the “The Republic,” thought of meat as a luxury that would lead to an unsustainable society, filled with strife and inequality, requiring more land and wars to acquire it.

Two thousand years later, in 1789, Jeremy Bentham, father of the theory of utilitarianism, pointed to the animal suffering as morally concerning and therefore implicated meat consumption.

He asked:

“The question is not, Can they reason? nor, Can they talk? but, Can they suffer? Why should the law refuse its protection to any sensitive being? … The time will come when humanity will extend its mantle over everything which breathes … ”

I expect that if the majority of people hadn't eaten meat for enough generations it would be common knowledge how to cultivate, import where need be and put together a good nourishing vegetarian or even vegan diet for a lifetime. I also am certain animals do have spirits. I have known humans with far less spirit/soul than any animal i've known so yes I do feel very bad for eating meat. Having tried vegetarianism three times in sixty odd years, once for over a year, and becoming ill and very weak each time I have always gone back to at least a bit of a carnivorous diet. Although I did once work with a very healthy older woman who gave me some great vege recipes and the good advice that the mistake most people make is in trying to make vegetables taste like meat. One has to adjust taste, too, which I didn't find too difficult to do by and large.
However, maybe it is to do with blood type and other factors, because regretfully I seem to need at least some red meat during the course of a week. I do wish it were otherwise and probably quite a few other people who tried and failed also wish it.

I remember a pl where I have no memory of meat, and the old 'Priest' made an offering on an open air stone alter of a small twig that bore a few small green leaves. Mind, we were dying out due to lack of numbers. A dozen of us, all ages, at the very most. Hunger was much the norm but we weren't showing ribs, but the two or three guards/warriors must have had more food as they were fit and muscular. We had golden skin. Maybe S America and perhaps long ago.

I am glad that you and others can manage it though.

Best wishes,

Angie

Hi Ritter,

Wow! That's some bovine! But to get back to the cold, I recall reading about the types of hardy souls who live in the wilds of upper Canada. Some of them professed to like the isolation and extreme cold because it "kept the riff raff out!" This is rather brutal, but I can see what they mean. No day trippers or touristy types. No drunks poopin on the doorstep or lying in the sidewalks (there are no resources for them and they would starve/freeze). No criminals (at least of the usual sort) as there is very little to steal, people/houses are too scattered, and they are well armed. No SJWs/Snowflakes (of the human sort) for all of the foregoing reasons. The list could go on and on. Of course all of these are God's beloved children, etc. and I'm not trying to hate on them. Most of them just need jobs/housing, treatment, growing up, and/or incarceration (as appropriate to the case). Nevertheless, I think that most people living in large cities in the U.S. would love for their neighborhoods to be free of some or all of the named categories.

Cordially,
S&S

The whole UK is more or less like one huge city now. I used to call London 'The Blob' after the old horror film of that title. Now t
almost the entire UK is like it. Can't travel many miles without reaching for what now passes for civilisation. I love warmth, c 68/70 F and truly hate the cold, but if younger I would seriously be heading my family for colder climes that most find too unpleasant to deal with - because I loathe what 'civilisation' has become even more than I hate the cold.
This is despite that the best chance of surviving a world catastrophe is said to be on the 33rd parelel - Nr East, Afghanistan, etc.

Hi Anjie,

I had no idea that Halal/Kosher indicated that it had "been prayed over or dedicated to a deity." This is new to me. Can you give me a site reference on this. I might find this problematic in regard to "Halal" foods. At the least, I would like to know more about it.

Hopefully they were only threatening it for effect and wouldn't do it. If anyone did that to our staff/boxer, we would definitely BBQ them and feed them to the cat!
Amazing that they figure such a threat will win friends and sympathy. Shows those particular ones aren't quite the full ticket. Are sixpence short of a shilling.

Cordially,

I read it generally on a couple of sites on the web. Never kept a note of which. I'm sure if you google 'how halal meat is killed and prayed over' and the same for kosher, then relevant info will be there. Maybe on yt too, although I didn't look there.

When I first read in an MSM article about this, I asked our local butcher if his produce were halal/kosha. He didn't know. So, after with no other independant butcher for miles I now stick to Morrisons.

The argument for halal/kosher slaughtered is that those of the relevant religions must not eat it otherwise. That is untrue, as they can simply say a prayer over any food (except pork/bacon) and eat it anyway. Their own prayer is sufficient, clearly, otherwise they would have starved long ago when meat slaughtered that way wasn't available in countries they or their close forebears migrated to.

However, the not so bad news is that organic farmers often have websites you can order from, and will deliver within a radius. I would suppose that most if not all organic farmers are more reliable, and you can always 'phone or email them to ask about slaughter methods. If they send to an outside abbatoir then they should still know the method used, but they are just as likely to carry out the task on their own farm.
The problem to the consumer could be that of expense, compared to supermarket sold meat.

There are also websites from which to order boar, venison etc. Simply google or search 'buy boar (or venison or whatever) in the uk' or whichever nation/country/county.

I wholeheartedly apologise and have removed my replies to you, which I wrote due to my misunderstanding.

I really cannot say sorry enough for any hurt and offence I caused. At the moment I am awaiting a Doctor's appointment to review my painkillers, as my GP want to get me off the Tramadol I have had to use long term, precisely because it can cause confusion and memory loss. I have noticed I have had instances of both in recent months, and can only think my response to yourself was due to the misunderstanding I am having due to the tablets (which kill the brain as well as the pain), because it isn't my usual character to be like that. I am even making spelling and other errors I never used to make.

I am going to give the forum a rest until I have managed to wean off the Tramadol and hopefully return to my normal, sensible self. It isn't fair on you and others here if I misunderstand and react like that.

I hope you are ok, and can forgive me.

Best wishes

Hello!
(Yes, I am going to enter this extinct conversation) I was looking at some academic journals recently (though I don't have their names handy at the moment), and all the studies I looked into found a strong correlation between diets high in meat (especially red) and cancer, while diets low in meat and high in vegetables were less likely to contract this disease along with other benefits. Protein is important undoubtedly, and everyone has a different body type which reacts to its "fuels" differently (in my opinion),but I would personally be weary of this diet. Not only do diets high in meat suggest cancerous results, but vegetables and fruits have antidioxidants and nutritional values that meat does not, including insoluble fiber. According to the studies I read up on, only fish and chicken should be eaten (if one must eat meat), at different amounts according to different age groups(if you are older you should eat more meat than a younger person). While I am no professional, and like I said, these studies do not account for everyone and their unique selves; I do think it is really important to contemplate what we put in our bodies, so we can respect and take care of what we have been given, and this diet seems a bit risky in my humble opinion.
Best of luck to everyone and whatever diet works for them.
