Guest guest Posted March 27, 2001 Report Share Posted March 27, 2001 " My sence of God is my sence of wonder of the universe " Albert Einstien<br><br>I think if we look beyond the Hokus Pokus of religion we may see some evidence of ancient raw foodists. Fasting and enemas are easily associated with raw foodists, and there is a lot of it going on in the New Testimate. Also I think we have a tendancy to find what we are looking for. I doubt many archaeologists are raw foodists and may not be looking for this evidence. Also a culture that had lived for generations on raw food, would not call it 'Raw' food, they would only call it 'food'. An archaeologist (I would think) would assume it was cooked. I think it would hold true also for scholars investigating the Essenes or the dead sea scrolls or what ever. <br><br>It is believed that a raw vegan society would be female dominated. " During childhood, female physical size and performance in school exceeds that of the male. This phenomenon is well known to school teachers. With the onset of menstruation and the great loss of essential body fluids, the rapid development of the female is brought to a premature slowdown. Loss of calcium, which is so essential to develop bone and muscle and to stabilize the nervous system, result in slowdown in skeletal growth. Loss of iodine, lecithin and vitamin E has a detrimental effect on brain development. Loss of hormones, which are more concentrated in menstrual discharge than in the bloodstream, speeds the aging process. Many females are anemic because the monthly hemorrhage causes a reduction of hemoglobin, the oxygen carrier. This has a significant effect on further brain development and nerve activity. Were it not for menstrual losses, the initial superiority of the female would persist in all later stages of physical development. " Survival into the 21st Century, Victoras Kulvinskas,M.S.<br><br> " All wild female animals yield their regular ovulation, but it is not accompanied by waste or loss of vital fluid. " Victoria Woodhall<br><br>In spite of toxic food, in the United States, females live longer than men, have less problems with hardening of blood vessels and high blood pressure. The female brain has a finer texture and more complex organization, and, relative to body weight, is 25% heavier than that of the male; her thyroid gland, which has three lobes, is larger than the two-lobed one of the male.<br><br>So now we know what we are looking for; a society dominated by larger, smarter, women.<br><br> " Mellaart's report, written in 1966 before the completion of the excavations, shows that Catal Huyuk, whatever its name may have been ten thousand years ago, was not only a matriarchal but a utopian society. There had been no wars for a thousand years. There was an ordered pattern of society. There were no human or animal sacrifices: pets were kept and cherished. Vegetarianism prevailed... the supreme deity in all the temples was a goddess. " The First Sex, Elizabeth Gould Davis.<br><br>There is also something I can't find right now about finding skeletons of 7 foot tall ancient women. I think it was in Scottland, or Ireland. It was in one of my Raw Food books, mabe someone else knows about it? <br><br>The ancient Hawaiians were a Matriarchal society, and although not raw foodists, their convenience foods were fresh raw fruits.<br><br> " The ancient Greeks, before the time of Lycurgus, ate nothing but fruit. In the days before Lycurgus, each generation reached the age of 200 years. " Putarch<br><br>Socrates, studied under Aspasia, the young female Delphic Oracle.<br><br>We men, may be making a mistake, advocating Raw Foods. In the animal world, males are reduced to breeding stock, and little else. Come to think of it that doesen't sound to bad.<br><br>My young female Delphic Oracle is working right now, but when she comes home I will seek her councel.<br><br>Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
