I wonder what the solution is to get the "I Did My Own Research!" people to understand that just because something was published doesn't make that thing correct.

While we're at it, let's make sure everyone knows that the same applies across the board, even to "respected journals" and mainstream media. As just one critique on the credibility crisis, I recommend this recent book by Jon Jureidini, and it does not stand alone pointing out these issues.

This point of view lacks a certain understanding. The model of feeding soybeans to cows is HORRIBLE (albeit, very common today). Only practical in the factory farming paradigm. Cows should be on a pasture, eating grass. Also, food is more than ratios of protein and other components. Without the right processing, little of the nutrition from the soybean is available to us directly. For a real primer on nutrition, cutting through our modern propaganda on the issue, watch this video. http://onebigtorrent.org/torrents/9164/Nourishing-Traditional-Diets--The-Key-To-Vibrant-Health

Comment war on (some) drugs (Score 3, Insightful) 1211

The long-lasting war that NO ONE SEEMS TO BE TALKING ABOUT, that costs us billions and billions, and puts such an incredibly huge percentage of our population behind bars. Over 800,000 Americans arrested JUST LAST YEAR for JUST marijuana offenses. This is a travesty and it needs to end! Why the hell isn't anyone TALKING About it in this damn election! Joshua
