Terry Nichols is distressed about his sins against God.

And no, he鈥檚 not talking about his in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing that killed 168 people, including 19 children. Rather, Nichols is referring to his diet at the federal Supermax prison in Florence, Colo., where he鈥檚 serving a life sentence for conspiring with Timothy McVeigh to carry out the worst act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history.

鈥淭he forced consumption of numerous refined foods daily is abhorrent to Mr. Nichols鈥� sincerely held religious beliefs, for it forces him to sin against God in that it (refined foods) destroys His holy temple (i.e. my body),鈥� wrote Nichols, 54, in the handwritten lawsuit filed last month in U.S. District Court in Denver.

Among other culinary demands, Nichols wants 100% whole wheat breads, cereals and pastas, more raw vegetables (with peels intact), a variety of fresh fruits, no deep-fried foods, and brown or wild rice instead of white rice. Nichols, who鈥檚 asking for more than $4.5 million in damages, claims that the highly processed meals he鈥檚 served are adversely affecting his health 鈥� and he doesn鈥檛 shy away from the details. 鈥淢edically, Plaintiff can easily take in all those refined foods, but the problem lies in getting it out,鈥� he explained in court documents.

Several other inmates concurred in affidavits filed with the court, including another antigovernment terrorist who鈥檚 imprisoned for life. 鈥淎ccording to my sincerely held religious beliefs God has made us in his image and likeness,鈥� wrote Eric Rudolph, who was for four major bombings, including an explosion at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics that killed a woman and a 1998 Birmingham, Ala., attack on an abortion clinic that left a moonlighting police officer dead. 鈥淥ur bodies are, therefore, sacred and should be treated as such. This includes eating whole foods and avoiding pollutants such as refined over-processed foods.鈥�

An affidavit from Nichols鈥檚 former wife, Lana Padilla, reveals that Nichols was devoted to a high-fiber diet long before he went to prison 鈥� though apparently not devoted enough to deter him from helping McVeigh construct a 4,800-pound fertilizer bomb. 鈥淭erry would often make his own 100% whole wheat bread, 4 loaves at a time, from scratch including grinding the wheat into flour,鈥� wrote Padilla, who co-authored a 1995 book about the bombing called By Blood Betrayed.

Nichols also gets touchy about his reputation in the lawsuit, contending that the media, the courts and the federal prison system have stereotyped him as a terrorist. 鈥淢r. Nichols is not a terrorist,鈥� he huffed.

Most people would disagree. Though the warden at the Florence, Colo., Supermax did not respond to a request for comment on Nichols鈥� lawsuit, many readers reacted angrily at , which has been covering the story. 鈥淟et鈥檚 see if I understand his religious logic,鈥� reads one post. 鈥淚t pisses god off to eat processed food, but not killing babies and innocent people?鈥�
