Yes. I spent a lot of time reviewing critiques of The China Study (TCS), including Minger's. At the end of it I came to the following conclusions.

1. Nutrition science is extraordinarily nonlinear
2. I'm definitely not qualified to deconstruct claims made about nutrition
3. TCS critics don't seem very qualified either, especially when compared to the qualifications of the people advancing TCS
4. There's no larger group of qualified people advancing a radically different approach

So, those are my reasons. I admit they're not very satisfying. I'm spoiled by fields where, once you grok the formal proof you can be highly confident that the claim is correct.

No such luck with something as squishy as nutrition, it would seem.
