Namaskar Everyone,

Good points Cinmin. Every once in a while this argument that Hitler was a vegetarian crops up. How can a man who ate ham and liver dumplings be considered a vegetarian? Jane Goodall observed wild chimpanzees hunting and eating meat. Studying chimp hunting, meat eating, and violence, would reveal much about our behavior. We are much closer to chimps than iguanas, but meat eating is very unhealthy. And anyone has to wonder how meat consumption affects the mind. Diseases and parasites might affect brain functions as well. Leading to proof that the Yogic diet would curb mindless comments.

Namaste,

Lea
