Guest guest Posted November 18, 2000 Report Share Posted November 18, 2000 People who cook are the cranks.<br>Anyone who thinks raw-foodists are cranks is hardly worth talking with, except to ask them how they are doing with all their colds, flus, heart attacks, cancers, strokes, accelerated ageing, surgeries, pharmaceutical side-effects, constipation, and all the myriad aches and pains they quaintly see as inevitable.<br><br>How I pity them all. They call us cranks to mask their discomfort with the truth of their own self-poisoning and cooked-food addictions. They shovel down mounds of tasteless dead pap larded with phoney-flavored gunk and carcinogenic ashes. <br><br>At a mere 70 years old they are tottering semi-senile wrecks ready for exploitation by the medical-pharmaceutical complex. Their children are collicy ill-tempered brats primed for the addictions of alchohol, coffee, tobacco, and illegal drugs. That they would see us as cranks is merely the delusion of mentally disabled food addicts. Pray for them as they ruin themselves so witlessly.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2000 Report Share Posted November 20, 2000 Dear Bill,<br><br>A crank, really, is someone who is unable to engage in mutual conversation with other people of good will.<br><br>By disparaging those who eat cooked food and refusing to talk to them, marks us out as cranks.<br><br>I think we have a unique understanding of those who eat cooked food; we understand they are addicted; and by showing our understanding and care, we will make friends. Do we prefer to win a point, or make a friend?<br><br>Surely the Raw Food Movement is not based on the hatred of those who eat cooked food?<br><br>Victor.
