Enraged and closed-minded? Question my basic beliefs? Are you serious?

As I said, I'm mostly vegan (& eat a lot of raw food), and have been vegetarian most all my life. I'd say I'm pretty open-minded to question what I've been doing for most of my life.

Maybe it has something to do with my low energy and broken teeth...but I'm still not open-minded enough to start eating meat again.

I'd probably try the 80/10/10 diet, if I hadn't read about the dental problems associated with high-fruit diets, and if I didn't already have dental problems, and if I weren't concerned about high blood insulin levels possibly resulting from high carb diets. (That's why I hope Steve starts monitoring his blood sugar.)

I have no idea where you got the idea that I was "enraged."

I don't see Steve as some sort of guru who can't be questioned, and I don't think he sees himself that way at all. He learns from other people all the time. That's what intelligent people do.

I'll bet he comes back with thoughtful answers to the questions I've posed.
