And I wasted a couple weeks of my life reading abstracts that folks sent me on the matter. They hadn't read them themselves, but someone told them that this paper proved evolution was real, and that was good enough for them. No, they prove things like mutation, things like chromozone swapping, but there's never been a proven instance of species creation. People believe that evolution is "more scientific" than faith in God's word, but they are simply putting their faith in today's scientists rather than the prophets and apostles. It's still a faith in a theory.Denise Skidmorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10977325703685007075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126279812243165595.post-15341938364932916442013-02-01T16:02:53.780-05:002013-02-01T16:02:53.780-05:00I think we need to utilize the incredible brains g...I think we need to utilize the incredible brains given to us by God and utilize what science tells us. The two concepts of science and religion are not mutually exclusive concepts. Science and religion should utilize one another to better understand each other. If you don't believe in the evolutionary aspect, Paleo can be summed up as an anti-inflammatory diet based on the elimination of foods, chemicals etc which cause inflammation and other complications which lead to so many preventable diseases and cause the expression of those which are genetic in nature. Please check out Dr. Terry Wahls on Ted talks who is a Dr who has recovered from MS through a paleo diet. It is amazing stuff! I can speak to its effects as my ADD symptoms have stabilized, anxiety has reduced and familial tremor disappeared. And if anything Paleo has given me a greater belief. Really I think we are being prideful to say that we know God and to disregard evolution as a pathway. All things are possible through the man above. If anything, the bible says he created man above all other creatures, which if you look at evolution, we are the only animals who can express ourselves through speech. I would definitely refer to that as dominion over all others. And if we look at the second creation story man did come after the all other animals.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03261207401054977438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126279812243165595.post-46242685546987611092012-07-27T12:23:55.159-04:002012-07-27T12:23:55.159-04:00But the world was in no where perfect condition wh...But the world was in no where perfect condition when Jesus walked the earth. He was not a chef, during his ministry he ate whatever his hosts brought him. He multiplied fish and loaves that were given to him, but the only food he made from scratch was wine. <br /><br />We can agree that Adam and Eve ate a lot of produce in the garden, the sticking point is at what point did they start eating meat. Wheat is a field crop, and gathered, threshed, and ground by the sweat of the brow, probably not a Garden of Eden food.<br /><br />Genesis 7:2 says "Take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and one pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate" but there is no mention prior to this of what an unclean animal is. These rules for what is clean and what is unclean are not listed until Leviticus 11, which lays out the rules for which animals may be eaten. Could these laws have been in existence prior to Noah and just not yet written down so that he would have known what a clean and unclean animal were?Denise Skidmorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10977325703685007075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126279812243165595.post-6096538897470849182012-06-19T13:19:34.326-04:002012-06-19T13:19:34.326-04:00In the beginning there was animal slaughter as sac...In the beginning there was animal slaughter as sacrifice, the meat of an animal wasn't give to us to eat until AFTER the flood "Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things." Genesis 9:3. <br />We know Noah was 600 at the time of the flood so for at LEAST 600 years there was no meat given for food, however in Genesis 2:16 we are given the fruit of the trees "...of every tree of the garden thou may freely eat..." then on in chapter 3:19 "by the sweat of your face you shall eat bread til you return to the ground.."<br />There's no golden key to unlock this 'food mystery'. You already said it, we were created for the Garden of Eden. No one knows what it was like then, except what the bible tells us. There was still a lot of disease because Jesus spends most of his time healing the sick. It seems to me a lot of bread WAS eaten. They break bread, pick wheat in the fields, and Jesus' miracles multiply bread. <br />For me the Paleo diet is wrong on many levels. The main one being evolution. Sorry, Daniel didn't eat what the others did.

I've had operations and just spent 3 years living in house slippers. I've been reading your entries on feet and shoes and I think you've got a lot of great things to say. The ghillies you made your mom are awesome. I have a couple pairs kinda like that. 3 years of living without modern shoes helped me more than all the podiatrists I've ever met. I hope you don't think I'm nuts or anything.

Not to a tee but I am crafting my life around it. I am a full fledged believer, so my questions lies in this. How do we respond to someone who asks, "why not grain the Bible mentions grain?". I don't buy into evolution so how do I answer that Biblically?<br /><br />Keep in mind I've been studying this way of life for only 3 weeks.

As a Christian who has adopted the Paleo lifestyle, I often find it difficult to explain to other Christians how I can follow an eating plan when I don't agree with the foundational beliefs.
