The discussion started with this post, which seemed to many, including Ray, to be related to the list topic: I realize that. And I think her question has been answered, wouldn't you say? Religion is as much about faith as it is about every other aspect. People who don't understand faith cannot appreciate religion. There is a difference between pointing out agricultural aspects of certain religions and going to the extreme of challenging someone's faith. That's definitely off-topic, to say the least. Why is it ok on this list to dicuss, even degrade, religion to great extent but the moment someone posts a link advertising a "simple life" which happens to be Christian in nature, someone gets offended? Better, it seems, to keep religious discussion to a bare minimum. One can easily be paleo regardless of spiritual or religious affiliation. Namaste, Stacie
