Issue with rubygems.rb when installing Rails

I recently had to delete all my versions in Ruby and reinstall them. After doing so (I'm now using 2.0.0 if that's relevant) I cannot reinstall rails. This was all done with RVM.

Here is the error :1:in require': cannot load such file -- rubygems.rb (LoadError) from <internal:gem_prelude>:1:in'

Update: I tried reinstalling RVM, as Albert suggested. I still receive the same error message.

when I run which -a ruby

/Users/bob/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p353/bin/ruby
/usr/bin/ruby

when I run rvm remove 2.0.0

Error running '__rvm_rm_rf /Users/bob/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p353',

It is a problem because of using sudo (you should not run sudo), to fix it run:

rvm fix-permissions

you should be now able to:

rvm reinstall 2.0.0

it will reinstall your ruby, ensure everything is set up properly and that your gems are usable with then new ruby.
