Give it to me Raw

Over the last few months I have witnessed durianrider attempt to ridicule, Brian Clement, Gabriel Cousins, Robert Young, David Wolfe, Edward Howell to name but a few. These people alone have around 150 years of experience and research in food nutrition. He sometimes makes the most outrageous remarks and fails to deliver any supporting data time and time again. When challenged, he usually responds with some flippant remark or more often fails to respond at all. My favourite Durianrider quotes are the recent ones;

'i do a bit of shopping for my grandma. i brought around some cert organic gala apples. she told me they are too hard on her body and she only eats golden delicious. grandma told me this whilst eating a msg soaked bbq chip..lol!

i always have a giggle when crew diss fruit and they are eating cancer fodder.

i used to get frustrated about it, but ive learnt that some crew are genetically damaged mentally and cant uptake basic human physiology info. being raw has really taught me what acceptance and tolerance really is

so im gonna add acceptance and tolerance to the 811 lifestyle as key factors to thriving in this cooked world'.


And the classic reply when asked to justify why humans need to train to run 26 miles;

'hey, you never know when a tsunami is coming! better to be in shape than not be in shape dont you reckon?'

What's your favourite Durianrider quote?

So if you are new to Raw food please beware Durianrider has only one message- 811 is the only dietary option. Most experienced Raw foodists disagree with this and unlike Durianrider are prepared to back their statements up.

very good point Asa. the truly confident usually don't run about singing their own praises.
what if his "path" runs you over?
this is how you cope. I can't argue with it if it works for you. : )
My point is that it's not a good enough reason to allow someone to treat fellow members with intolerance just because it may be part of their "path".

What if my "path" is to scream uncontrollably in my neighbor's driveway?

OK. Is this discussion a starting point? Or a necessary conclusion based on DR's conduct? Should no one ever take a stand and bring his quotes and behavior up for review? Hasn't he earned some of this critical attention? Why is this considered an attack when it serves to call attention to an attacker?

Suvine said: [snip].....I envy his sureness......[snip]

As far as sureness goes, on it's own it carries insufficient weight to merit envy. After all, Bush was sure and then some. Hitler was sure.....
are you sure????

: )
"You're either with us or against us"

- Hitler (1936)

- Dubyah (2001)
are you kidding! that was a Hitler quote first!? seriously? wow...
Absolutes can be dangerous, and so can ultimatums.

Even raw ultmatums ;-)

And like those God freaks too .... all they do is talk all day about is the bible

I cannot believe you said that tele!
Well is he comparing DR to those monsters? Why is he using this comparison? DR is all for living in prefect harmony with nature and to do no harm to out fellow animal creatures etc......we all know what those kind of dictators are all about.
Mass destruction and murder in the name of greed!!

Geez raw food community try and refocus on what you are all doing this for in the first place, where is this going to lead us?
Now I'm finding myself caught up in something I wasn't planning to and it makes me feel sick in my stomach to be honest.

You wanna both snowboard and ski? You usually have to stick to one if you want to master it. Not saying you can't do both, but maybe wait until you got the hang of it before switching up.

My dog likes to sleep between my legs. Warm and I rather not speculate what's going through Mr. SS McCracken's head. Then again, he likes to sniff the cat's butt after using the litterbox :hurl:

This is WONDERFUL news!!!!! Many blessings from God to you. I love yoga. It is working miracles in my physical and spiritual walk with the Lord. Someday I'd like to visit India with my mother and sister.

One of my coworkers left a Little Debbie zebra cake for me for my b-day. I ate half and gave the other half to my husband. Sometimes I'm able to resist and some days (like now when Aunt Flo arrives) I nibble. The other day my husband made stovetop...

I love food as long as it's good. I love the fact my husband raised two turkeys for himself instead of being like his friends and buying the five dollar turkey at Walmart (yes there really is a five dollar turkey). My grandpa died at 103 and that'...
