The war on cows is a war on us. Meat consumption is correlated with reduced heart disease.

It is also correlated to an increase in intelligence, and a meat based diet like Adkins or paleo can reduce body weight and reverse type II diabetes. Unnatural sugars like refined from sugar cane, sugar beets and corn are poison to the human system. We did not evolve on that kind of foods. We did not evolve on white flour. Anything that turns directly to sugar should be avoided, and meat fills the stomach helping kill that constant craving for sugar.

This is more due to the state of Ketosis which is present in those diets, than it is inherently to those diets themselves.
Nothing wrong with an Atkins/Paleo diet, but you're attributing the benefits of Ketosis to those diets instead of the direct attribute of Ketosis.
I've done keto, and I've done the restricted diets of paleo, and Adkins. To get into ketosis and stay there is very difficult.
The other two diets don't even try to take you that far. You are still burning glucose, and your blood sugar will flucuate with how well you have limited your intake of the wrong foods. I don't believe you ever actually get into ketosis on those diets. I am type II diabetic, and I keep a pretty close eye on what I can eat and what I cannot. I don't stay in a great range all the time, but I know what foods are causing the problems when I go off the farm.
That's not even remotely true. It's simply the state of your body using fat for energy (ketone bodies) as opposed to glucose. That happens whenever you limit carbohydrate intakes.
Sure, but they are both fairly low carb diets. An atkins diet is explicitly such, as you're almost exclusively eating meat. Atkins diets will always result in a state of ketosis, and most applications of paleo limit carbs where you will be in and out of ketosis depending on exactly what you choose to eat.
I don't believe you understand what ketosis actually is. You should really check these resources out - they break down studies and actual science on the topics we're discussing:
