Paleo isn't a belief.  Paleo is a religion, in which people believe.

What makes you think that you are an expert?

Nothing to do with word games.  I did not attack Paleo at all, nor because
it was inconvenient and disturbing, I happen to like most of the ideas.  I
simply pointed out that it was a leap of faith, a belief, and therefore a
religion. You were the one who attacked me with word games about "cure".

You can't think of a single more inconvenient idea than a diet?
