Talk:Hallelujah diet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Is it really supposed to say "Victim B12" in the caption on the photo instead of vitamin B12?
Sadly the story of the woman dying is true. I know her husband and I used to work with him. She had four kids under the age of 7 and she died last night. An oncologist told me that cervical cancer can be easily treated in its early stages. What tragic stupidity. One Salient Oversight 11:02, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- She is saved though so no tragedy after all, unbeliever.
First off there are around 2 million people on the Hallelujah diet and there are thousands of testimonials about people who go fully on the diet and say they are cured of many different diseases including cancer. So before you go flaming something take the time to learn the facts. Also I have removed some of the links that clearly had nothing to do with the Hallelujah diet. The Hallelujah diet is apposed to Fruitarianism and has nothing to do with it so it has been removed. I have also removed The Celestine Prophecy because it also has no relation to the diet.--Victory2b 00:53, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- Just a moment. Let's review some of the facts that you present. There are millions on the diet and thousands of testimonials? That's not very good statistics. It sounds like maybe only one in a thousand (or one in several hundred) has had an experience worthy of a testimonial. Far from being good, those are dreadful statistics. I'd like to know the Chi-square distribution. What is the correlation between years spent on this diet and change in incidence of disease? How much of the variance in obesity or mortality is correlated with time spent on the diet? Please give me citations of articles on this diet that have been published in peer-reviewed journals rather than in magazines supported by those with a conflict of interest in reporting the success of this diet. My guess is that there are NO numbers for ANY of these questions. Using testimonials is non-scientific and not proper evidence in a NPOV encyclopedia. Why? Check out the article on placebo or the section the value of testimonials. Interlingua talk email 14:39, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
- Wait just a moment. Because X positive testimonials exist, all other experiences are "not worthy"? Listen, science boy, don't you understand the concept of a sample Do you believe in gravity? Why? Is it because you don't insist that scientists test every single massive particle in existence while creating experimental samples to test the hypotheses regarding gravity? Look, I'm not saying you're wrong to be skeptical, but your argument is terrible. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.247.107.90 (talk) 05:11, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
I am in the process of adding to and re-writing most of this document due to the large number of inaccuracies found within it. This is my first time changing/updating a document so any assistance would be appreciated --Victory2b 01:26, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
