I know what gluten is. I don't need a lesson from you.

Obviously you don't because you kept calling it a carb.

>Also you advised a trial before taking the blood tests or biopsy which is also absolutely the wrong advice as I explained.<

Yes you did.

If you think you are gluten intolerant, it's worth trying the SCD for a couple of weeks to see how you respond.

If the diet is gluten free as you said the book said then by giving it a trial you can reduce your antibodies and get a false negative on the test. If it isn't gluten free you are wasting your time and giving yourself the feeling that you don't have celiac when you might. Either way it is the wrong approach if you think you might have celiac disease.
You seem to be pushing this book alot. BTW, the colon has nothing to do with the cause of celiac. Celiac damage occurs in the small intestine which isn't the colon. There may be irritation in the colon from a lot of poorly digested food but you fix the celiac and the small intestine and the colon gets better, not the other way around.
