I'm a raw and living foodest. For those of you who are unfamiliar with what that is I only eat foods that have not been cooked. I do this because it maintains all of the nutrients and enzymes intact and is much healthier. I'm not here to try to convert anyone. I think you can reach maximum health by eating all kinds of foods fixed all kinds of ways. This is simply my life choice. What I'm here to do is help educate people as to what is happening to thier food. Did you know that the pharmaceutical companies have lobbied to have a law voted on called "Codex Aimentarius" that will take away our freedom to take suppliments? It has already been implemented in Europe. Of course it is still ok for them to put steroids, antiboitics and harmones in our foods. Have you wondered why there is a great influx of people acting aggressively and out of character? I'm here to help guide you through this mess. If you want to eat meat...eat meat...just get chemically free meat. I'm here to help you understand what is happening to you.

Flight 5191 should not have crashed in Kentucky today. Where was God? And does he not love them?
This is a rather complicated issue and I'm not sure I can explain all the details thoroughly enough, but I'll try or at least give you a synopses. One of the greatest gifts God gave to us was free will. That means that if I decide to go to school (for example) there are many consequences, roads, or decisions to be made w/in that one decision. With each road I take there are consequences for each one decision made and innumerable decisions and consequences that lay w/in that (really mind boggling). Some of the consequences can be good and some of the consequences can be ones I won't enjoy. I could decide to skip school, get caught and be suspended or go to school that day and am one of the few who are chosen to go on an out of town field trip (you had to be in school that day). I may wish I had made a different choice, but the choice I make is the one I will have to live with. There actually is no such thing as good and bad. Good and bad is just something we label to explain how we feel about an outcome. Now how does this relate to the flight going down? Well, some of the things that it could have happened as a consequence of human decision is a mechanic decided not to tighten a bolt properly, the pilot flipped the wrong switch because he became too complacent about his job, maybe the control tower gave inappropriate directions, a terrorist did something, or the plane was overdue an overhaul check-up and some executive let it slide. All of these being human decisions w/consequences attached to them. God believes in our abilities and intelligence to know what is the right decision. We don't always follow our instincts and this sometimes brings about those consequences we don't like. Have you ever decided to do something that you know that your parents were going to be angry about if they found out but you do it anyway? They find out and you get into a whole lot of trouble. You made the decision and the punishment by your parents is the consequence. The pilot when he flips the wrong switch (for example) may have had a split second where some voice said you might want to look at what you just did, but the pilot ignores this little voice and the consequence is the plane crash. I'm not saying that any of these examples are the cause of the plane crash today by the way. What I'm saying is the plane crash was caused by something that some human somewhere did or did not do and this is the result of that action or decision. God loves us and welcomes us into his presence. He loves us so much that he gives us the freedom to grow through our mistakes. A few ways that we can stop things like this is listen to that little voice w/in us that is alerting us to "something is wrong". We have to follow our conscious and not ignore our wisdom within. We need to stay on the road to truth, love, and respect of each other. If we could do some of these things plus probably a whole lot of other things I am not attuned to, we might be able to avert the stupidity of our own actions or choices. I wish you the best of luck!
Namaste!

(Rating: 5) I do not believe that you could have stated this in a more appropraite and organized manner. I want to thank you, first off, for sharing your opinion, regardless of how I may view it. To be honest, I don't pray. I am not a religious person, at all. I do not believe in God, but I am not quick to assume he doesn't exist, or ever has. Since I do not give him my time, I am not expecting his. I don't want him to correct out every little error if it is purely a mistake of our own. I understand that we make our own choices, with simply the knowledge of his preferences, requirements and standards. The thing is, when accidents like this keep occurring, I don't see how I ever could put my faith into him. Maybe it's naive, but I feel as if... if God were real and here to assist in urgent times of need, he would have been awake that morning. I know I'm only driving myself up a wall, but I just can not block out the visions of what those people must have gone through. Why do people invest so much time in God if he isn't there to help them? I know he can't help everyone, but those passangers did not ASK or bring onto themselves what occurred. Their only crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Why couldn't they have been helped? It's just not fair, and I think more than just the pilot and the airport could have done something..... So what, they prayed to God for him to take care of them after death? So what, if they didn't "get things right with God" while that plane was going down.. he would bannish them to "Hell"? What kind of leader abandons his own for not trusting him (not for committing unforgivable acts), but just questioning him?
