I agree about the whole diet thing. Good to know you managed to take your son off Ritalin early on. I have worked with young people who started taking it and witnessed their slow decline as a result – looking very ill and vacant. I remember having conversations with parents about diet and it just broke my heart that they were not willing to try it.
I also feel the same about the whole 'self-sustainable living / eco-friendly / renewable energy' thing – benefiting us, but also demonstrating respectful stewardship of God's creation and our neighbours who are effected by how we live.
Wouldn't it be great if Christians were at the forefront of developing / practising these ideas and setting a good example – as part of our witness in Christ? This verse keeps popping up: “I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial.“I have the right to do anything”—but not everything is constructive (1 Corr 10 v23).
Keep up the good work hearingGod / Stingray and anyone else who is managing to live this way or planning to take this route. Count me in!
